R32?
I have a philosophical question for you fellas...
I have an old wore-out 22" hardnose bar for the R32. It's a .058 bar, but the chain that came with it is .050 and rusty.
The bar's still got a few cuts left in it, and I really don't want to sink $$$ into a new bar right now. Seems like an awful waste to throw a new chain on this junky old bar.
Do I drop $$ on a new chain, or scrounge around to see if I can find someone with an old loop of .058?
Yeah, it's a rare hot saw based on Volkswagen's hotrod Golf drivetrain.
My mind isn't all there right now. I should have said R35...
Daddy66(?) Chris,has helped me out again
With a partner 5000 needing a muffler i made a post and he was right there and i had a great muffler within days !!
Took it apart and burned it out,put it to the wire wheel,,modified it,,painted it and baked it on the woodstove and here it is
Saw runs AWSOME !!
wish he would sharpen his crayon so i could read the return ad ..
Nice looking bunch of saws guys!
Here's some pics of my old R11 before I to started on it. It's on my bench now. Piston has some light scoring but I think it and the jug will clean up. It won't hold vacuum but I haven't torn it down enough to find the leak.
This thing is well built. Not looking forward to taking the cylinder off though. It's going to be hard to get access to the jug bolts.
It'll all be worth it when I hear it run!
Chris, grab that plug wire boot where it goes into the coil and it will unscrew right out of there.
You can just find a longer wire to put back on it from another Husky type saw. You can plug the plug boot off and remove the terminal spring on the other end as well.
The grommet end of the check valve goes into the tank but I dont remember off hand where the hose goes to on it. I'll look when I get time.
I already unscrewed it and put it on my new coil. Do all huskys have the screw on plug wire? I don't have any huskys anyway I guess.
I'll see what I can find kicking around.
Thanks Mark.
Rottman's ended up having one in stock. Thanks for the help Chris!
I take it the coil didnt come with the wire? I know the Husky 55 has alot longer wire on it. I would have had to shorten it to put it on the PP475.
I probably have a wire here if you wanted to wait that long to send it.
