Husqvarna Sticky!

[Sepia]

I wish the gurus here would put together a sticky, chart on what interchanges cylinder and piston with certain stroke saws. Then some of us here can do a big bore kit.

That would be quite a long and complicated sticky. There are so many variances even in the same model from it's inception to it final incarnation. I think it's best to just research whatever specific saw you are interested in modifying.

And BTW Bill...

Let's see some pics of that 2100 you got going! This is the Husky sticky and we need more Husky pics - especially the models that don't pop up that often, like your 2100.

Assembling an OE 346xp/. Looks like I need a coil. Has anyone used those cheap China coils?

Not sure if you guys have seen this, or have a use for it. Posting it anyway, just in case someone can use it.

Fellas, question wrt a Husky 181se. Will a p&c for the 288 fit that saw and is there some good grunt hiding in that saw?

 

[rocketnorton]

yep x2

 

[Huskybill]

The 181se cylinder had no compression release?

 

[Walter Glover]

Mine does not and wish it did. Hoping the 288 cylinder does

 

[rocketnorton]

early 288 don't either

[Huskybill]

I purchased a piston kit for the 288 that has a comp release.

What did you think of the quality of that kit? I bought the Meteor 288 kit and there is good and bad.

The good: nikisil plating is excellent, port timing was exactly like oem cylinder, casting looks nice, bevels are very good, piston/rings are good quality and sized to cylinder (B).

The bad: transfer ports are small - especially the lowers. Base was not perfectly flat, but would likely be fine with a gasket. Cylinder fins are quite thick, possibly reducing air flow. Intake port does not perfectly match the carb spacer.

Good to know. I will be using a Farmertec set on this 181

Here my 6.1/100 cc partner r40 saw.

Here my 6.1/100 cc partner r40 saw.

Looks like a tough old beast of a saw. Does the fuel go in through the clutch cover?

 

[Huskybill]

Yup. Awesome heavy saw. I like it. I love big Swedish saws I can not lie. Orange, red, or yellow bring them on.

 

[Walter Glover]

Is that Partner saw a cousin to the Husky 480cd?
I have one and the muffler looks the same
