Can anyone tell me if the air vent on the oil tank is serviceable/replaceable? It’s a Wards 5.0 (pl-55). It doesn’t seal & leaks a lot of oil. I tried cleaning it with no improvement. The ball is free & the spring feels soft but I’m not sure if that’s normal. I have gone through the entire...

Is this the flywheel? https://www.ebay.com/itm/156124840614?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=QV_FCNcZRlG&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=npeVeDIOSG6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Nice. It looks like it will clean up pretty good. I agree with @Hoggwood about these.

Is that the saw that was in your outdoor log display?

I see they took care of you on the other site. If you re-bend it, let us know if it holds up.

I’m pretty sure the recoil spring is mounted behind the flywheel on that saw. The 245 is the same way. Pull off the flywheel & see what’s there. Hopefully you just need to rewind it.

Thank you

I got this project XL-123 from Steve, @svk. It was obviously a well liked saw as it saw some use. I replaced what was needed & have a good running example from that series.

Wow, that is expensive. I’m kind of the same way even though I don’t cut wood like you. I’ll spend what I need to keep a saw running even if it doesn’t get run very much.

I really like my JD 56. I had to put replace the P/C on mine & it was not easy to find. Plus, shipping from Italy tends to be expensive, even by Hawaii standards.

You will like those 302’s.

Beautiful work!

Thank you.

Did they have to do some mods to make it fit?

Very nice! That thing is a beast.

Yes, that’s the part I have. It’s the one on the right in the eBay photo.

Is this the part you’re looking for? I just looked & I have an extra one. It had a tiny tear where it goes in the housing but I put a little Seal All on it & it should be good. I will give it to you if you want it...

A ported 028 Super is a nice saw to run. I sold a couple & always missed them. This one is staying.

Do you like it? I was thinking about bidding on that as I hadn’t seen one before. Glad I didn’t run it up on you.

I was thinking there was one under there. Did you see my throttle lock video above?
