    Piston and cylinder should fit, but you will have to update the ignition to the newer p45 module and flywheel as the mounting bosses are different. Flywheels and modules are the same from the newer p39, p42, etc. and up.

    I wouldn't run the Farmsaws without the decompression valve. The recoils on those saws are weak, and you will end up destroying the recoil assembly.

    Cylinder is the same for both the Farmsaw and the Farmsaw II. Pistons are different in that the Farmsaw uses 2 rings, Farmsaw II usually is only one ring, but it should interchange with no problem. Both saws use a decompressor as the Farmsaw II is not the same as the farmlite. Farmlite is same...

    If I remember correctly, it is the same part number.

    JB Weld is an epoxy and works really well. You could just leave the spike off if you are concerned about it not holding. If you end up using the P61 crank, use the main bearings that came with it as the 655 had a bearing change. You could see about getting a piston and cylinder kit for the 655...

    The P61 cylinder should bolt on, but as you have discovered, the wrist pin looks to be a different size. If you can use your 655 piston, it would probably work. You will however need the P61 or P51 ignition system which is almost impossible to find modules for any more. The flywheel for the P61...

    I have a Pioneer 400 with a Brown carb that needs a new kit. What are people doing to rebuild these as kits no longer seem to be available?

    I was told that a husky bar will work. All you have to do is enlarge the slot for the studs. Oil hole is supposed to match.

    Oil pump gear I have always just pried them off with a screwdriver. Just have to work it around several sides of the gear, and take your time and don't pry too hard on any one point.

    Chain breaker and spinner I have one just like it, but the punch is broken on it. Haven't been able to find a spare punch anywhere. I got it years ago from a retired Pioneer dealer in Stratford. My literature and books do not show this tool anywhere. Would be nice to find a spare punch and fix it.

    For Lawrence I am looking for a tillotson carb from one of the following models. Either a 410, 450 or 550. I need it for a model 400 that has a Brown carb on it. Trying to get this saw running for a friend of my son's. It was his grandfather's saw and he would like to be able to use it. As long...

    farmsaw recoil The recoil from the p41 will fit with no problem on the farmsaw. The issue is that the flywheel will also have to be changed as well as the ignition coils. I'm not sure if the p41 ignition will fit on the farmsaw cylinder.

    Original screws on the starter cover were slotted, with a fairly flat head on them. Hard to tell on the picture, but those look to be the originals. Should be able to find them as they were used on the P40, 41 series as well.

    Did you check your kit. Usually the kit will contain several circuit plate gaskets. Pick the right one, and ignore the rest.

    Brown Carb Kit I am looking for a carb kit for a Pioneer 400. It has the Brown 1-PA carb on it. Any ideas on where I could find a carb kit. There is a Chainsawr site that shows a kit for a CP carb kit, but I am not sure if that will work. Are there any other carbs that could be fitted to this...

    Do you have another good functioning carb that you could try. That would pinpoint whether it is the carb that is the problem or something else. Sounds like it is running too lean at idle if you have turned down the idle screw for the throttle properly.

    worm gear I've always gotten them off by using a long handled screwdriver with a fairly wide blade. Just pry gently between the case and the gear. Work the screwdriver around from all sides. It will move a bit at a time, but eventually will come off. Tool would work better, but I haven't been...
