[tree monkey]

these things done yet?

whats taken so long?

quit looking at the girly pics, yer too old fer dem.

 

[Sprintcar]

About the biggest I need to run anymore are the 066's and maybe the 394. Them long bars make you forget and sometimes stick the snout in the dirt. Nothing pisses ya off like sticking your snout in the dirt with new chain.

Yo Ted.......

The pistons are the same......right down to having the same part numbers inside.

Okie doke...OE piston part number 1124 030 2007..here's a media cat screen shot


Then the NE version...1124 030 2002


It's cool you have these apart to be able to see there's actually no real difference. It makes dorks like me better at my job...but what a ruse. Thanks mm.

Tough crowd.

I've got got these saws apart on the bench. Normally I start a thread when they are done.......not this time. lol

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

I'm gonna go get some Chinese food........I'll be back later.

Same here yesterday. Crab legs, frog legs, mussels, scallops, shrimp, etc etc etc hmmmm hmmmmm Then get home to top it all off with some blackberry wine.

Looking at these piston very closely makes me think that the scuffing was caused from over heating. The machine marks are worn almost completely away on both pistons.

 

[Mastermind]

I've buffed both pistons, and see no reason to replace them. If overheating caused this scuffing a little more clearance will likely be a good thing.

 

[Mastermind]

I've got a lot of these big saws to do this weekend.....

An MS880, 088, and two 084s.



All the pistons are the same Ted.....

I wonder if they addressed the scuffing in the newest version by making the piston a little smaller?

 

[Mastermind]

No.......they all measure the same. Weird.

 

[big t double]

good to know....thanks for checkin....I wonder why the different part numbers. weight maybe? im stretchin, I know. im shutting up now and enjoying the show.

 

[Mastermind]

I have no idea........TreeMonkey might. He's smarter than I am.

 

[Mastermind]

What do you think about buffing and reusing these pistons? You can still see the scuffing, but can't even feel it with a fingernail.
