is there a way to tell if the bearings are bad. i assume there good because the piston looked really bad. thats where my problem was coming from.

I tore apart my 372xp to find out why it locked up, and found a severly scored piston. rings were froze on 1 side of piston. well any way i got it clear down to split the case. I want to clean it up but didnt know what to use to get the crap out of the crankcase. so should i go ahead and...

check out fire chief. they have one that will heat up to 5,000 sq feet. sits outside.

I need one for my 372xp. I have searched ebay. and google and cannot find one that would work. Does anyone know where i can get one. I tried the methods that i read in here but I cannot get it to budge.

i feel my cad flaring up again and would like to know the world famous stihl saw that everyone talks. the one saw that stihl did right on. Is there such a beast out there.

i didnt get the flywheel off yet but been trying. I have had a busy week and i promise i will post here once i get the flywheel off and see what going on. I am going to look for a puller that will fit.

this would be the closest gtg to me so I think i better make it. I can bring a camper and chainsaws. i think i am about 3 hrs away.

i got a chance to work on the saw tonite. I am 90% sure that a bolt behind the flywheel vibrated loose. I can hear somthing rattling in there. got a socket and took the nut loose on the flywheel and i was able to turn it. I also got a flash lite and looked behind there and think i see where...

shaver makes one now, there are also bryan, fire chief. and airstove. them are the ones im familiar with. also looking myself to replace the lil house i got now.

i didnt get to it yet. Last nite i had to clear the work bench off so i had a place to tear into and i had to watch by boy, hopefully tonite i can start on it.

what would cause my saw to lock up? I was cutting some 24" diam oak saw running good then all sudden it dies. tryed to start again and rope pulled kind of hard. hit decompression valve and rope wouldnt pull at all. I know its not the gas i just mixed up a gallon and was using it in my other...

I see that shaver extends there chimney down into the fire box about 1' off the bottom. Is this a good design. It seems to me that you would loose alot of heat out of the chimney. they claim this is their secondary combustion chamber. what is your thoughts.

pic of a small tree i just cut down with the ms260.

thanks for the idea. I am in the planning stages now of buiding one. I will have to add those to my build, very important to keep drinking your fluids while splitting.

if you go new it will cost you well over $1200.00 if you go new to upgrade the axles. you will have to get new tires and wheels to mate up with a 8 bolt lug axle. think ahead it will cost more money in the long run, way more money.

you can overbuild a trailer. you can overbuild a trailer. the trailer needs to flex a little or something will break

I just picked up an I beam for the my splitter build, It is 8" tall and 5 1/2" wide flange. flange thickness is 3/8", and wedge thickness is 1/4". I am now worried it is not heavy enough. I will be using a 5" x 30" stroke with a 2" shaft, coupled with 13 hp and 22 gpm pump. I know this...

don. I love your splitter, would love to see more pics, what part of iowa u from. i am east of shenandoah about 10 miles. i hav decided to go ahead and build my next splitter.

Why dont the high end splitters like the timberwolf or built rite splitters use trailer springs. i would think this would help alot on vibration on engine, pump, and tank. Just thinking out loud what is your thoughts.

its broke now. I keep getting server is to busy when i log on or when i tried to reply to this post, i was finally able to reply after the 3rd time. I also tryed to do a search for splitters and it came back with no matches found. I hope they go back to the old or i will stop visiting this site.
