    husqvarna 455 rancher low on power?

    Okay, I got this saw cheap and I am working on getting it going again. It had no compression when I got it; which turned out to be a stuck ring. I tore it down and cleaned up the ring groove and installed a new caber ring. While I had it apart I replaced both seals and tested pressure and...

    Stihl 009l - choke not closing

    So I have this old stihl 009l that I have been messing with off and on for quite awhile not and it has been a hard starting saw. For that reason it hasn't gotten much use but it seems like a nice lightweight saw with decent torque. I have narrowed it down to the choke flap not closing all the...

    Mcculloch PM 610 oiler differences

    So I've got a Mcculloch PM 610 that was found in a barn that blew down back in December. I've cleaned it up and replaced the usual items: seals, carb kit, fuel line, fuel filter, etc. It now runs good; but it doesn't oil. I followed the directions in the service manual to test the pump and...

    Mcculloch mini mac 35 carb ID

    Can someone please help me out with this carb? Is it a walbro MDC 1 or 11? It looks like they take different carb kits and I am trying to find the correct kit with the welch plugs. Thank you.

    Echo fuel line sizes

    I have been using echo fuel line for various repairs lately and I am running low. What sizes are the most common to use. I would like to get some of all sizes: 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, but don't want to spend that amount of money. Looks like it sells for 26 ft boxes about $25-30.

    MS200T Zama C1Q-S126 Troubleshooting

    So I have three carburetors that I have removed from ms200t saws that weren't running, all zama C1Q-S126. I've rebuilt two of the saws and put on brand new oem carbs, and the other usual rubber bits, and they are running great. As I get more into working on saws I want to learn more about how...

    Husqvarna 50ish cc saw suggestions

    I am mostly a stihl guy but I have been having fun working on some older saws and I want to try out a husky. I don't have a need for another saw but that doesn't seem to matter here! So what models would you recommend I look for on my next project saw? I am thinking something with easily...

    Idle and hot start issues

    I ran my new to me Stihl 034 today and was pretty impressed! I ran it hard cutting hedge, locust, hackberry, elm, and a few others. Burned a couple tanks with the 18" bar buried and it pulls hard. So the issues I noticed, the saw won't idle very long maybe 10-15 seconds; the other issue, when...

    Looking at a new saw: 028S vs 034

    I am currently using a 028 wb as my main saw (which I'm converting to an 028 super), with an 009L for smaller stuff/backup. I really would like to get a newer saw with a chain break. I am pretty happy with the performance of my 028 so far but I have read that the power to weight ratio is...

    Stihl 028 wb to Super - Huztl build

    I've been using an older stihl 028 wb this year and it has done a decent job; but I think it is time that it was rebuilt. So I ordered a new 028 super cylinder from Huztl; along with a few other items. So far my main concern is the cylinder. I know it is not up to par with oem. My main issue...

    Stihl 041 tuning issues

    I've been working on this stihl 041 aveq off and on for getting close to a year now. I've replaced the crank seals, fuel line, impulse line, new episan piston and rings. I am pretty sure all that is good. This is about the first piece of equipment that I have tried to tune the carburetor on...

    Stihl 032 av coil issue?

    I have been rebuilding a stihl 032 av. new caber rings, carb kit, fuel/impulse lines, and replaced points/condensor with a nova trigger. Put it all back together, starts up and runs fine for a few minutes then dies and won't restart right away. Did this several times and decided to try a new...

    Stihl 028 Oil Pump Body

    I was using my dad's 028 this weekend and noticed that it was only using about a third of a tank of bar oil to a tank of gas. Looked around online and learned how to take things apart on the saw. The plastic gear inside the pump body has several stripped teeth. From what I understand this is...

    saw stutters and lost power

    I have been rebuilding a stihl 041 av and finally put it into some wood today. I ran it in some old 12" cottonwood for half a dozen cuts, nothing to really stress it! Then, I went back to work cutting some osage orange fence posts. So, this was all small hardwood, only up to about 8 inches...

    stihl 032 av oil pump rebuild

    I have a stihl 032 av that leaks oil behind the cover that is behind the sprocket. I hope that makes sense. It has to be coming from the pump itself; either the gasket between the pump and crankcase, or the seals on the pump itself. Looking at the IPL there are two o-rings, the rubber plug...

    Stihl 041 AV aftermarket carb?

    I just finished rebuilding a 041 with a new episan piston and rings, new fuel/vacuum lines, crank seals, and o-rings. pressure and vac tested the crankcase. I cleaned the carb again before putting it back on. It was flooding out before I did all this and it is continuing to do that now. It...
