So I had the gudgeon pin circlip give out on my husky 562 today. So apart from swearing vigorously I need to get it sorted. Probably 30 - 40 tanks through it so the rest should be in good shape still. I'm putting the failure down to bad luck as I can't see that excessive revs are an issue with such a brainy saw....
As an eBay purchase I have no warranty, and as it's direct from the states I'd fork out shipping both ways even if there is.
Piston, cylinder, rings all shagged, I assume metal in the bottom end.
I don't have the tools, desire to split the cases and clean out the bottom end. I do kinda like the idea of getting a new cylinder ported. I'm thinking I might box it up and send it to terry landrum as my 385 I bought from him is a groovy thing.
Anyone got any advice on shipping to the states? Are there any local alternatives? Should I stop being a girl and just get the bottom end sorted myself and order whatever new bits I need?
