This is a pretty basic question considering and it may have been covered but I can't find it. What is everyone's method for tuning the lo needle? I always seem to struggle here and all of the tuning info I can find always concentrates on the hi which I have no problem with. I struggle with...

Do you intend to offer the rebuilt primers for sale or perhaps on an exchange basis? If so, I would certainly be interested in at least a couple. I have a few flatbacks that I would be running if I had working primers. The choke flatback in my Super 250 runs quite nicely. I swapped to a Tilly...

Looking for an IPL for Husqvarna 372XP non x torq

Well, bad news. Filled her with fuel and oil, choked her and pulled and pulled and pulled some more........ never even let out a hiccup. Tried a squirt of fuel down the intake, nothing. Checked for spark, no spark. Checked all wire connections, tried a different plug, unhooked the kill wire...

We will see of she runs this weekend. Only issue I had was I had to grind the thickness of the sprocket down a bit. It was just slightly too thick so when I tightened the clutch it would bind the sprocket.

Managed to get the crankcase, fuel tank, and oil tank assembled after dinner tonight.

And so it begins!!!

I was referencing things like the clutch nut and the decomp.......thanks for all the videos, I was up until 1am watching the whole series lol.

Looking for IPL and service manual for Stihl 070. Thanks!

I'm goingn to dredge up this thread again!!! I just pulled the trigger on the 070 parts kit. It will be my first build. I am.lookingnforward to the challenge. I have read all 50 pages of this thread as well as watching a bunch of the videos. Have any of the earlier "problems" with missing and...

I've been wondering about these clone 070 saws. I searched but only could find an old thread from 2012. Wondering if some are better than others? Pre-built or build it yourself? Neotec? Farmertec? Some other brands? Anyone run any and have any firsthand experience? My interest is purely...

Ok guys, help me figure out this 5-10. About a year ago I had a problem with it having intermittent loss of spark. Fast-forward to last week. I finally had some time to mess with it. I literally changed the entire ignition system. Ditched the points for a chip, used a coil and flywheel from the...

Did some cutting today, ran a few saws. The 7-10 and PM55 both performed flawlessly. The 5-10 still has an ignition issue. I made 2 cuts with it, it was too rich, I paused to tune it and while I was tuning it, it just shut off. I checked and had no spark. Have not looked into it any further. I...

I actually could use the coil for the 1-40. I have one here running weird and I've covered all my bases, last thing to try is a coil. I was gonna use one from a parts carcass but all I have are the ones with the spark plug on the left so I'd have to swap a longer coil wire. Doable, but it would...

I picked up this guy today, gave $40 for it. It was stuck tight, guy said so in the add but the saw looked real clean and low hour so I figured for $40 it would pay for itself in parts. Anyway, pulled the muffler, spark plug, and recoil. Let it soak with some penetrating oil for a few hours, put...

Wrapped this guy up today, I had previously torn down and resealed this saw only to find there was a crack in the oil tank that leaked rather profusely, guess I should have payed more attention lol. I tried cleaning an using JB weld on the crack but it literally just did not stick and peeled...

Ed, I commented on your Facebook post, I will check my parts pile tonight and see if I have any extra adapter plates. They may have all found homes in other saws. I will typically buy a whole parts saw just to get HL, the adapter plate, and the throttle and choke linkages. Usually costs less...

Tonight's exploits involved JB welding the cracked oil tank on my otherwise great running early model 7-10 and then sorting out a wonky ignition on my 5-10. I ended up swapping out every part including the flywheel before I got it to function reliably. Took that one out and made a couple cuts...

You would need the adapter plate too. I've switched a few of them over. I've also blocked the primer off on a couple flatbacks and just prime from a squirt bottle

I switched this one over to a Tillotson HL63 to get rid of the primer. It seems to run pretty solid.
