My crank had about. 020 side 2 side play so I will get bearings
What size fuel line you running? I'm using 1/4" thin wall, flexes pretty good. I ordered 2' so I'd have some spare line if needed.
Steve
That is the same fuel line as I have
This is what I ordered, made by excelon.

It’s yellow tygon. Forget the size. Was a bear to get it onto the carb barb.
Tell me about it, heated mine up with hot water and stuck a small pair of needle nose pliers in to stretch it some so it would go on.

Exactly what I did.
Mine is different from that, it's Tygon F-4040-A 3/16 x 5/16 1/16 wall very soft. JJ used the same tubing on my 5400 when he got it, that's all he did to the saw
Only reason I bought the line I've did was I wanted to give it a try and I'm not gonna buy tygon off eBay without being able to actually look at it. Gotten taken once, not again.

Be sure and let us know if it is a good tubing, I hate getting taken on goods. I like being able to get just a few feet of stuff to try
That's what I did, I looked back and saw I got three feet instead of two.

Pics will come once my decal comes in. I’ll see if I can find a paint code on that can they sold me. That match was awesome.
Yes it was and anytime you post a picture that will be great, got my parts ordered today and I'll wait on the paint till you maybe find a code. Then we can pay you for using it.lol . A thanks will be in order
It’ll be later tonight. Stuck at work now.

Yesterday 2 older gent shows up at my place with a 2550. Bought new years back but wont start. Told him 99% pretty sure what I will find. But wouldnt get a chance to look till mon or so. Hunting trip.
Curiosity was killing me. So before I packed. I took a peek. New fuel lines and primer lines later.
Called him back about a hour later to come pick up his saw.
Also ask him was it hard to start since new? He said yes. I told him I adjusted that too on L side. He was all smiles on the 1 pull start warm.
What I took from this saw comparing to a 260 I had on shelf. Spring av etc just like the poulan pro 260. Only difference I noticed it had a hand guard instead of chain brake cover. Oh and it was green.
