I do still have yours to trade... Hmmmm. But I think he likes the 281...

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Morning all.

OK fellas I need advise. My neighbor brings me a 281 husky with the two coil ignition system. It idles like a dream but will not accelerate. Which coil do I replace, the upper or the one that is in front of the flywheel? I haven't worked on too many of these is why I'm asking.

Why do you suspect the coil? Shooting ducks when you open the throttle? Popping & cracking?

Most solid state ignitions produce poor spark at low speed. So I'd be picking on the carb/fuel system or hunting an air leak.

And: Morning midlanders!

Not heard form Jim for several days[emoji848]

It won't throttle up no matter how rich or lean, idles like a champ. Like it has a rev limiter st 4500 rpm.

Throw the suspect coil in the oven and bake it for a while. I was skeptical until I tried it. I'm sure it won't work every time.

My 801 is doing that too. Starts, idles, free revs but dies like you switched it off under load. Carb kit, new fuel lines, no better. Haven't had time to dig deeper.

How hot?

 

[jerrycmorrow]

my fresh rebuilt SEZA is doing that too. could easily be carb adjustment but already spent dsome time on that.
meanwhile, eating popcorn

How hot?

I did mine @ 250 degrees for 3 hours. I've got a big toaster oven that I use for heating side cases to R&R bearings. When it came out of the oven, my digital pyrometer showed the actual temp at 290 degrees.

Note to self: Snag a toaster oven from a garage sale for the garage.

 

[cobey]

Maybe I need to do that to the 500evl

And a fryer for bearings.

No charity cut this weekend. Can't get hold of the owner.

 

[67L36Driver]

Trying to make one runner from two Craftsman 358.350210 (Poulan 295?). One bar stud missing and the other boogered.
Already tossed the extra chassis/tanks. (Dummy!)

Regular 5/16" bolt won't work as the shank needs to be oversize.

Any guesses on this saw? Dolmar 111, maybe? I really don't know.

Look for a tag on the case below the clutch.
