Just a seal, bottom of af cover seats on.
Not yet, was getting saw ready for a little gtg today.
Just set it to the side in a plastic bag till I put a new kit in it. Have it apart so mise well put another in it even though I cant see anything wrong.

Thanks Mike. I think I'll be OK.

Need some verification or new ideas. Just rebuilt micro xxv. New ring, carb kit, fuel lines, filter. Got it together and it wont start but did bump a couple times. I figured it was trying to burn the assembly lub and grease (connecting rod/crank bearings fell out so had to use grease to reinstall).
Got fire. Got fuel. Got O2.
Checked compression - 85psi - ugh Wore myself out pulling on it (at least 300 times) so hooked up drill to the flywheel nut. Still no joy
Is that compression normal for a new ring in a apparently good jug?
Dont yet have a pressure/vacuum gauge so didnt check that. Gonna get one next week. Im guessing bad seals could contribute to the compression reading.
Any valid ideas

Leaking seals shouldn't have any bearing on compression, cylinder and rings do. What shape is the cylinder in?

Forgot to add, how was the ring in the cylinder bore also, wide ring gap?

Jug looks good. No scoring. Clean. New ring gapped to 0.006 times jug diameter. Locating pin factored into calcs
Doing well Mike. Retired and enjoying the grand kids and life.
How are you guys?
Sounds like a dry bore, add a little oil to the bore and see what compression does.
Steve
Did you squirt fuel into the carb,,I did one not to long ago and had to help it get going with fuel before it would go on its own. Seems like the pump in the carb is slow to get fuel into the motor. It doesn't take much fuel to flood the little ones. Keep us posted and we will help with ideas
Bore was oiled when piston installed
Primed carb no less than 6 times

Something don't sound right then. Was compression good before tear down?

Few of us got together and ran a few 60cc class saws yesterday. The biggest log isnt even in the pic. The one shown on stand started 16 wide and 14 tall but ended where we are in pic 16 x 16. The other one can take 28" buried. The biggest one is way bigger. But not for the small saws.
Some snapped pics I wasnt aware of till today.

I'm at that awkward age my friend!
Too damned old to work this hard and long, and too young to retire!!!
Still getting up every morning.

Couldnt say. It was a salvage yard find. Looked like it had been used hard and put away wet, real muddy
Replaced coil. Wondering if timing is off

Compared coil with old coil; same
Removed plug, held upside down, rotated engine, no dribbles. Gonna let it bake in the sun and try again tomorrow. Will let you know

If the seals are really bad you won't develop enough pressure in the crankcase to push a sufficient charge into the cylinder, and on the flip side you may not be creating adequate low pressure in the crankcase to "draw" the charge in.

How's the red valve, stuck open any?

Was starting to drool on this till I looked closer at the pics!
