I came across a nice looking 520 on ebay with bar and chain. I was hoping I could simply do a carb rebuild, but I discovered it has a very scored piston. Any ideas where to get a decent piston? I'm mostly seeing Little Red Barn. I imagine I should replace the seals as well? Has anyone found a good reasonably priced source? Any other tips? Ive heard that I need to open up the muffler. Ive got it mostly torn down now, just hope I can remember how to put it back together. Also, I'm coming up with several part numbers for the piston and not sure which is correct. P021006150 (NA) ,P021006152, P021006153. Any ideas?

I'm almost certain it's P021006153.
As I'm almost certain the CS 510, 520 and 530 use the same piston.
Amazon has been my source for years for OEM.
I do a muffler mod on every saw I buy but a re-tune is required afterwards.

Is there a trick to pulling the oil pump? I think I have to remove it to pull the cylinder??
Still can’t pull the oil pump or the cylinder. I must be missing a step. Does the wall between cylinder and carb simply lift off with the cylinder. I’m stuck
You have to pull the oil pump drive gear from the crankshaft before removing the oil pump.
Does that washer/wurm drive spin Off or lift off?
The center circle of that washer seems totally stuck to the crankshaft. Will I melt any thing if I put a small torch on the washer?
Any more thoughts? I'm pretty much stcu on pulling the cylinder until I get that washer off. Prying with a fine tipped screwdriver does not seem to break it free from the crankshaft.
