That looks exactly like my Sears Craftsman mower, but sprayed a different color!

Don't know wich model you have and when it is build but this is for 2015 models.

Craftsman T2000 Series, T3000 Series with Turn Tight: Husqvarna (These mowers are still made in the same plant that used to be owned by AYP (Amercian Yard Products) and Electrolux.

Craftsman G5100, G5500 with Turn Tight are also made by Husqvarna

Is that some kind of brake to keep the blades from turning when they are disconnected? Kinda like a safety feature only maybe mis-adjusted? Don't know, just asking..

I also don't know it yet. But i'm figuring it out what it actually is. The only thing i know is that it is scraping onto that flywheel (or how should i call it) and that isn't correct .
Keep you updated!

that looks like a clutch stop.

On my bench for the third time is my computer chair, broken after 2 times using the JB Weld and the third time using the JB plus putting a bolt in the thing and JB Welding it to the plastic arm. I give up on this project and am going to WalMart for a new one. Maybe I'll pick up a diet book while I'm there...

I believe it is a GT 5000, not new anymore. Has a Kohler Motor and 54" cut.

Tonight was a 262 up for bearings and a minty 44/46 hybrid of my buddies. Oiler is modded, seals next waiting on the jug from machining to port it.

 

[VinceGU05]

i got a line up again starting with 2 of these 031av's. one a full resto. the other get her running again.



finally all cleaned up. gees i hate the smell of dirty old saws.



hornets were nesting in the muffler and port



blast and weld up rust holes ready for painting.



will need to turn the bearing on the left so it looks like the one on the right. bloody stihl and their special bearings NLA.



blasted up it looks like new!



blasted primed and painted.. lots more bits to do the same too while i wait for parts from OS.

 

[VinceGU05]

next will be the 262xp



then the stihl 084

Just re-ringed a Stihl 044, now runs like a top, wished it was mine but returned to customer. Now I'll have to set the chainsaws aside for a little while so I can repair my bathroom subfloor. Sounds like quite a job, I'll be glad to be back in the chainsaw business next week..

Finally getting to the 036 PRO! It got a new oem piston, seals, fuel line, filter and impulse line. The cylinder wasnt bad and only needed a little cleanup. It also got a carb kit, ignition wire and thin base gasket. The clutch cover was cracked so I got one from Glock37 and a new air cleaner cover from the dealer.

That saw would look a lot better sitting on that nice husky floor mat that you have. HAHAHA !!!!!!

Remanufactured Randy or beaten into submission looks great either way

When you have an air leak at the intake somewhere on the carb or so and you don't have an pressure/vac tester they always told me to spray carb cleaner or wd40 somewhere at the intake. If the engine speed changes you should have a leak. I was just wondering if this method is reliable?

The best way is to pressure test it, usually not too hard to rig up a pressure tester with something around the shop.
I have three or four saws on my bench now, one I probably will just sell for parts and the rest fixable. I'm currently working on another Stihl 031 which came in with no spark. I disassembled it pretty completely and cleaned it all up including the points which was the problem. It now has fire but I haven't checked out the fuel system except I know it's all there. I'll try to finish it tomorrow if possible..

Brass fitting in the sparkplug hole with hose fitting on the other end attached to about a continuous 10psi of compressed air. Block off exhaust and intake with rubber gasket flange material and spray everywhere u r checking with water/soap solution, and if that doesn't find it, submerge the saw underwater
