Stihl 028AV clutch spring

[Pim]

I suspect my clutch spring is worn of my Stihl 028AV (1985) because chain is running in low idle.
So I ordered new clutch springs, but they are smaller than the springs in the saw.

I ordered the 0000 997 5811 which i found in a old part list.


What is the correct part number of a clutch spring in a Stihl 028AV?
Or are the wrong springs in the saw?

Looks like the wrong clutch....

The part number for the 028 clutch shoe is 1113 162 0802.
Maybe the new springs are close enough to the same length as the old ones, you'll have to remove one to compare.

A "smaller"spring does not necessariuly mean that it is weaker. It depends on what you mean by smaller. A longer spring with larger gauge may produce less force because it is longer. A shorter spring with smaller gauge can exert more force because it is shorter. Your new clutch springs may work fine.

That’s a 31-32 clutch....Harley T’s right

The same clutch shoes and springs were used on the 032 and 028.

I am also searching, , ,the ones you bought , did they work. I have tried proline springs, the loop on the end has to be chopped off to make them fit, and the angle of approach is all wrong, , ,so I know this is an old post, but for anyone who sees it, , ,proline springs won't work.

The two saws show a different carrier/spider, maybe that makes a difference.

But they both used the same springs, OEM PT# 0000 997 5811. One never knows what the aftermarket stuff will look like or how they will last or perform.
