The 60 you should be able to get aftermarket for like 12 bucks, the other filters what I would do if your gonna make them I would cut the filters out to shape and then buy a can of the "rubber handle" dip and I'd dip each edge in it and call it a day

I will do that, I actually have a can of rubber handle dip. I will probably just get a new filter for the super pro 60. The 1-40 came from a very generous member on here on the Christmas giveaway and it's a really nice saw.

Jerry morrow correct? I thought about claiming it but I figured someone could use it worse than me

 

[brandonstc6]

Yeah, I got it from him. I only have one other 80cc Mac and it's my D36 and I have a pretty nice super 250 with no spark, I'm pretty sure it needs the points cleaned. I picked up the red craftsman 1.9 I gave away here on the scrap yard. I figured someone here would want it.

The new addition to my collection, has no spark.

Whered you come by that beast

lol eBay Probably paid too much for it but a saw a pretty rough looking one not running sell for $100 with no bar and it also didn't have no spark, so when I got the email that this one was listed I figured if I didn't get it, it probably would last long. And I've been wanting one of those old Jonsoreds and the 70E was the one that kept popping up in conversations.

That has a plastic flywheel on it, there is a thread on here about reproducing them using a 3d printer

I figured I'll tell you just in case yours is busted, I guess it's a common problem

I actually saw someone run one with the 3d printed flywheel on youtube when i was looking for videos of them. Is 130psi compression enough to run that big saw?

I glanced inside there put didnt look super close, and the plastic flywheel seemed to be in good shape. But like I said I didnt look super close. I might end up having to get a new SEM module for it.

It should be. You could look into a set of caber piston rings and while you are at it de-carbon your cylinder and piston.

How much does a set of rings run?

 

[brandonstc6]

That saw is a one ring model. I've had several husqvarna saws with 125-130 psi compression and after a new piston ring it went up to 150-155 psi. Just be sure and take the new ring a carefully put it in the cylinder with oil to check the ring gap. If that checks out okay then take your OLD ring and break it and then use that to clean the carbon from the ring groove. Then put your new ring on (indention for locator pin goes up). The oil it good and use a zip tie for a ring compressor and the cylinder will slide right on. I've bought stuff from this guy and have had no problems. It will take about 1.5-2 weeks for it to arrive from Greece. He has rings for many other saws and does combine shipping.

How long has it been sitting, this can also play a part in squeeze numbers if it's super dry the rings unseat and give false readings

 

[Kensie1988]

It didn't look like it had been too long, there was still residual oil on the piston when I looked at it.

 

[brandonstc6]

I'd say you need a new piston ring. Piston and cylinder look okay to me.

I concur haha

 

[Kensie1988]

Sweet that's an easy fix lol

 

[Kensie1988]

Now to just solve this no spark issue
