Was that the one you had out at rich dugans place.

What happened

I think it threw a needle bearing or something and it got into the top end.

That sucks, not really something you can prepare for.

This one is not mine, but I do have a few 10 Series pistons at home that came apart looking like this.



This one is mine, 101 kart engine that had the wrist pin slide over and turn the needles loose.

Mmm, nothing like the smell of blown needle bearings in the morning. Someone offset this carnage by posting some purdy looking saw content.

Here you go...I can't get over this beauty and soon my 669 will be back after a good friend has blessed me by helping getting it running well again!! And he blessed me even more with a good port job on it so I can't wait to run dual 90cc saws [emoji57]

Someone say needle bearings.

Saws eating needle bearings seems to be a common issue lol.

 

[Mac&Homelite]

So far my issue has been carbs. Haven't had em running long enough to blow a bearing yet. lol

Heck, didn't know the saw has a problem til I pulled muffler to clean up. Saw was given to me along with another saw for parts minus p/c. Piston was hitting crankshaft cause of a few missing rod bearings. What was bad, the saw ran but because of a butchered muffler mod you couldn't hear it.

Now that's some good looking saws
My cookie cutter

Kensie - Take care with the AF in that one, those are becoming hard to find and the price keeps going up.

PP 655BP is still on my wish list, as though I needed another saw...

We all need another saw.

I noticed the filter was a lot different than anything I have seen, I haven't yet checked for availability, thanks for letting me know, luckily this one is in good shape, but I might get a backup if I can find one.

Here is a question for everyone, is spitback normal? When is it an issue or become an issue?
