Like a say, there's just a missing part that shoulg be inside the filter (looks like another filter). But the saw seems fine like this.

The plate for the HD2 filter has no seal like the one from ebay on the last page, because the seal is on the filter.

So, you just need the plate, the filter (and the smaller filter that goes inside the filter if you want), and of course the cover!

Guillaume,im just getting into my 064 rebuild and looking at the 064 IPL-illustration N[no page no]i see the HD FILTER KIT:1122 120 1031 listed,is that the what you bought or did you buy the pieces separately?Next question does it mount to the tank/carb housing directly?It would appear it should if you follow the IPL
Could you show a photo of what was the original arrangement/filter set
Finally i see your top cover has the decomp hole,is that a new cover or did you just make the hole in the original 064 cover i can only find that cover on the 066 IPL-1122 080 1606-page 50,nothing on my 064 IPL shows a top cover with the d/hole...
I hope this is useful info/QnA relevent to Dan's informative and educational 064 Build thread,thank you Dan..
Tnx for the cylinder/BB photos and information,i have found the Hyway kit in the uk,my cyl/piston are beyond fixing! Also found a new OEM 066 crankcase-1122 021 0705/1122 020 2905 so i guess im going to be busy!ANY INFO on this case would be most welcomed

I just put the HD filter on my own 064 a few weeks ago. Parts were really hard to find, here. I just needed the plate that replace the classic filter, the filter (mine is a HD2, but he fit perfectly), and of course the cover. There should be another part between the plate and the filter, a kind of pre-filter, but it wasn't available, and the saw run great like this!

try a filter wrap from outerwears , as much as i like how the HD2's breathe , they pack up with fines waaay to quick

Thats true I was surprised how much was in my filter when I packed my saw up last night.

When i did that ash tree dan it was terrible , it was dry as hell and pretty much every tank of fuel i was knockin the filter out

 

[Deets066]

I have the outerwears pre-filter, they still clog up with fines, that's when I went to maxflo

Finally i see your top cover has the decomp hole,is that a new cover or did you just make the hole in the original 064 cover i can only find that cover on the 066 IPL-1122 080 1606-page 50,nothing on my 064 IPL shows a top cover with the d/hole...

You are correct. The 064 was never offered with a decomp. It was built for real men haha

Hello KIAORA,

My parts are from smaf-touseau.com, they don't have the complete kit, just the filter base, filter, and cover. The filter base goes direct on the carb housing, yep.

I did the decomp hole myself, yep, the compression is crazy on this saw (it i my "playing" saw), and cold start is pretty difficult without the decomp!

Update...well I havent posted much on the 064 project for a while and am finally able to! Went out and cut the five pines a couple weeks ago and the saw was awesome!

it sounded great and ran better than expected! I got the chance to run my buddys 562! I really liked that saw! The big pine ended up being 41" across!

Here's JBA doing his thing on the pines!

 

[z71mike]

Man I haven't gotten a chance to cut pine in ten years! That saw must destroy softwood. I need to find pine now.

 

[PA Dan]

Dropped the big one right where we wanted to! Started bucking the 45' that was on the ground. After about eight cuts the saw was acting funny. I shut it down and moved onto something else for a while. Went back a little later and couldnt start it. Smelled fuel so I thought I flooded it. Packed up and headed home. The next day I took the 064 out back and tried to start it again. Couldnt get it to pop and thought wow is this getting tough to pull! Took it to the bench and pulled the muffler. Thats when I started to feel sick!I

 

[PA Dan]

Picked up a Meteor and started cleaning up the cylinder. Then found this under the transfer!I

Looks dry to me

 

[PA Dan]

Time to back up a little. Before I pulled the jug I did a pressure test and found a leak. How it got a leak in this spot ill never know. It definitely wasnt leaking here when I assembled the saw.

So I guess I get to split the case again. So I made a splitter and got the case apart!

Yep case gasket leaked right beside the impulse nipple and went lean!

Was this an aftermarket gasket? I had one leak on my 046 so I got to split it again.

 

[PA Dan]

So I split the case and cleaned all the pine tar off the rest of the saw. Replaced the case gasket and reassembled the saw. Here's what it looks like as I type this!

Nope all OEM except for the wrap handle and hardware for the dogs! Now it will have a Meteor piston.

OK just wondering. It sucks nonetheless.

Yes it does! All good now I hope! Now I sit and wait!

 

[z71mike]

Danno, you gotta be kidding me! Was there any audible sign while you were cutting?
