And maybe a hose clamp?I have never had to attemp rhis, but it looks like to me that there is enough meat there to use a couple tiny self tapping screws to go along with a rim of sealant.
Create your own market.271-291 311-391 had glued on covers I think- not sure, I like to avoid them like the plague.
Wrong.Will another adhesive work under the heat cycle conditions? Doubtful but who knows?
The piston shows light scoring up and down. Could be a partial lean seize. I would be more concerned with a bearing cage coming apart on the crank. Needs a tear down.
Serial number please.
It probably has beat PTO seal from the clutch being slipped to death on with dull cutters.Compression numbers are irrelevant. The condition of the piston tells the tale. That is now a parts saw.
As for cause the saw was overheated which loosened the glue enough to cause a lean condition which burned up the motor. The cause of the overheating could be old gas or cutting with a dull chain, etc.
Diamond bur, JB Weld and run it.It is a MS271. I did a compression check before I dug into it. It made 150psi. I will post some piston and cylinder pictures later today. I'm sure it takes a special glue to put it back together?
Thanks

It's no "design" mistake in fact it's built in and likely cost extra to build.
Maybe c-clamps to hold together while curing. Would be nice to vacuum/pressure test after, but I’d likely be too eager and just run it.I appreciate all the input from everyone. I clicked on the JB Weld link that Chevyboy0167 posted and told them what I was doing and here is their reply.

"We recommend using Original J-B Weld Twin Tube Epoxy, 8265. Make sure any premix is completely clean off. Apply and wrap with strong rubber bands to keep it tight. It needs to set for a good 2 days undisturbed."
I don't see that I have anything to loose by putting it back together and giving it a try. I'm going to clean it real good and glue it back together with JB weld's recommendation, twin tube epoxy 8265. Then clamp it together with a hose clamp or zip tie till it dries. I have not looked at it yet to see if I have enough meat there for a couple of short self tapping screws, but I like that idea. Might even bring it in the house by the wood stove to help it set up for a couple of days. Might get one cut out of it or 25 years out of it. You never know till you try.
Thanks for all the ideas.
