Good evening, gentlemen!
So I had this chinese top end for a 036 that I popped in there for testing purposes. And here's the result after about 2 tanks, half of which was really adjusting and playing around with different settings. In the pictures you can see that the spot where the circlip is...
I found a saw the guy said was straight gassed. It did not looked ragged and always looking for my next project i took it off his hands. Spent several days cleaning it and looking it over closely and it really cleaned up nicely. I had never owned or worked on one, since they don't have kits for...
I put a new cylinder and piston kit on a MS661C. One of the rings is binding so I need to take it back off to see what's going on. Trouble is, I used blue loctite (never doing that again) on the cylinder screws and now three of them won't come out. I tried a soldering iron and then a small torch...

Piston is toast.Running Chinaise AM at the moment but...
My father was about to pitch a Husqvarna 254 because a salesman told him it wasn't worth it. I found straight gas in the tank (a classic little brother move), and assumed the worst for the piston, ring, and cylinder. Now that I've opened it up though it really doesn't look too bad. I'm doing the...

as per title, does anyone know where to find new cylinders for a stihl 031? Aftermarket is fine, I can't seem to find anyone that makes them.

So I have a 2005 Jonsered 2152(Husqvarna 353) that I picked up, has some miles on it and was blowing 125psi so I figured I would put a new ring on it pull the base gasket and muffler mod it to see what it could do. Pulled the cylinder and started cleaning it up when I noticed the squish band...
hi, I bought an ms 440 in january ,it is still available in russia and I was wondering what brand of cylinder are they using now.I'm asking you this question because recently I have seen a few very fine vertical scratches inside the cylinder through the plug hole but not on the piston.It hasn't...
Yep. Don't do what I did.
Stihl 192 tc about 1 year old lost a muffler screw while in use.
The saw was stopped and I went to get a new screw at a nearby dealer.
He kept mentioning something about the wall being so thin, but, knowing what needed to be done I just asked for a new screw please...
I'm posting to share the problem I found causing my saw not to work and no other help post I've read had this as a likely cause. As its happened to me,its real world.
I run a stihl MS170 to cut firework and bought and further cheap damaged one on fleabay to fix up and take apart to learn, so as...
