flywheel

I’ve gotten my hands on a Husqvarna 162 chainsaw, and when I try to pull start it, the cylinder won’t go all the way to the top dead center. I thought it might be a compression problem, but I have found that the fly wheel spins while the crankshaft doesn’t as long as the spark plug is in. I took...

Hello, I was given an MS250/C 2009 from my Dad as he gave up on trying to fix it/spend more money on it. About 3 years ago a couple of fins flew off the flywheel and broke the bottom of the crankcase. He bought an new flywheel and crankcase and rebuild the saw. It started alright but after a...

Howdy folks, I got a project chainsaw for the right price, free! It is a Stihl 066 with the digital red light. I don't know if I have spark and the compression is shot. It looks like the saw was run without oil. I also noticed that the flywheel is missing a fin. Part Number 1122 400 1209. What...

So I ****** up, I tried advancing the timing on the 201tc-m and completely filed the key. The saw now idles but will not hold a full throtle, or start or idle right. I presume its because the flywheel is destroyed? See picture Will a flywheel from a 200T fit and work with the 201TC-M ...

S%#T hit the fan at the job today and I think I sheered the flywheel off of my workhorse, an early 066 red light. I am in desperate need of a new flywheel for the ol girl. The saw is at the shop and I will find out more about what the specific part is. The old coil was replaced (I assume for...

Have a running 621 in good shape, and a decent backup 621 for parts. Today's task was to replace the damaged flywheel. First thing, saw runs and sees wood daily. Thing is the flywheel has 2 broken fins. Remove primary flywheel, install replacement flywheel from my parts saw and lose my...

Saw a video last night of someone “referencing “ another video about someone removing a flywheel the tooless way, hammering it off with a hammer and punch. Said it somehow reversed the polarity of the magnets. Can this actually happen? Believe this was a saw that had points if that makes a...

In June, 2021 I fully rebuilt a Stihl 034 super and it’s basically a brand new saw with only one problem. One of the splines on the flywheel is damaged and every time the pawls catch on that spline it either sheers the pawl, kicks back and leaves my hand in bits, or the pawl, washer and clip all...

Good day, i been searching for a flywheel with good magnets for my mcculloch 1-85 chainsaw ? I would also be interested in a whole parts-saw or in a good working machine... I come from germany but i have a reliable partner in the usa who could forward the package to me best regards, Kestel

I am new to two piece flywheels. On the 480CD, what holds the fins to the hub, is it just press-fit. Does it require special tools to separate and/or re-assemble the pieces. Also what is the function of the thin ring (#371). Thanks

Just picked up a 066 without a decompression button and it has the metal flywheel starting to hear some negative views on the saw regarding a weak crank . Should I be worried or be looking for a 066 with the polly flywheel ? just want a reliable saw and don’t need a new 661 . This saw has good...

I recently made the mistake of loaning out my 925 and received it back with a broken flywheel. Looking to buy either running or non-running SXL 925 saw for parts. Since I need a new flywheel, I prefer one that has the later model flywheel (96801A) intact. Piston and cylinder in good shape would...

Hello, New forum member here. I sure wish I knew about this site a long time ago. There is so much knowledge here. Hours can easily go by just reading through posts. Of course my favorite so far, are the chainsaw sections. I figured I give this forum a try. I have searched high and low for a...

ok, here we go; I’ve searched thru and read a bunch about the ignition coil, mtronic carb reset, etc. here’s what I did... 1) New wiring harness from coil to carb servo connection- old one had two yellow & red wires cut. New Wires look good. 2) gapped flywheel with a business card...made sure...

Hi friends, I am in the process of bringing an old P21 back to life. The threads on the flywheel nut are stripped away so it will need replacing. Anyone out there familiar with a part that will fit correctly? Nut size and thread pattern perhaps.. Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers!

It’s a 372 clone build. It recoiled when I first built then the rope broke. Replaced that and the spring was chinsy so I replaced. Now the dang thing won’t retract. It retracts off the saw just not installed against flywheel. Any suggestions or advice is welcome. At my wits end with this...

I have searched high and low, far and wide, yet a used flywheel for a 280 seems to be as rare as unicorn tears. Not sure how it happened, but pops managed to break off about half the fins on his flywheel on his 280, and I would like to replace it instead of running an unbalanced grenade. I have...

I bought an old 064 on e-bay that had a scored piston and cylinder. Put an old piston and cylinder on that I had lying around. Saw ran, but got real hot and would not cut, would stall. Replaced seals, crankcase gasket, and bearings. Now there is no spark. Flywheel is in attached picture...
