Aftermarket 272xp piston & cylinder kit issue

[jordan henson]

So I'm rebuilding my 272 rn p&c were fine, impulse was covered so had to go in. I'm debating with myself wether I should go all the way in and replace crank seals as well what do y'all think

I would, it doesnt take long and the saw is old enough they could start leaking anytime now.

If you do (and you should) don't forget to get the proper o-ring for the PTO side that seals the oil pump body to the case

It definitely somehow took all day lol, yuh copy that I would have but I was surprised to find brand new seals o rings washers but all wearing a very work sprocket n all that. I'm slowly just going through everything on this guy cuz weird ****, kid I got it from traded it for a few pair of Carhartt work pants.

*prolapsed, but like spanky new. I knew it was leaking somewhere but I didn't expect the whole ring to be prolapsed I feel like there's no way you wouldn't notice when doing it
