Thanks for the help.

thanks, I figured as much. but just wanted to make for sure. also are any of the aftermarket cylinders any good or just stick with oem?

I've been looking at getting a 353 and putting a ne 346 top end on it, from what I've read here it's a direct swap, but the husky web site lists the 353 as a 1.26" stroke and the 346 as a 1.28" stroke. is that a mis print or does the 346 case set the cyl higher? or is the 353 e-tech a...

looks like the end gap swung around to the exhaust and popped the top. check if the locator pin is still there?

+1 Since you have a 346 for the majority of the tree, the 576 will cut a bit better I think. It would be different if you had to lug it around for all the limb work too.

if the crank was bent it would only change tension when the motor turns, so if you just pull the chain around by hand and it's doing it, I'd check the sprokets and the bearing. Back in my younger years I also learned that just a little bit of that nice sawdust/oil crap under the clamping area...

(sniff!) (sniff!) Yup, smells like a scam to me.

I had a 55cc craftsman with a walbro and it had an aluminum "fence" around the screws and the screw heads were a "D" shape but no limiters, is that what yours look like?

Check out the carlton web site and look at their "complete book of saw chain" It explains it pretty well on pg. 12-14

Thanks for all the info and tips. I heard about .020" is about all you want to get down to on a saw. any input?

I was wondering if any one knew where I can get some thin gasket material to make a base gasket out of, or is there a good enough "gasket maker" sealant to seal it up? thanks.

ok, I've been messing around with my 575xp husky, and was wondering if anyone knew what I can do to get a bigger carb on it? I see zama has a couple different strato carbs but not sure what one would be an upgrade for me.

surging is usually a sign of a lean condition isn't it?

it's one of my too many projects in the corner for now, I was going to pull the flywheel and take a gander .... one of these days.

I was always tought too, to use two pieces at 180 deg apart and in line with the wrist pin to prevent the piston from rocking and give you a false read. But that was with sleds that have a wee bit bigger cyl's. Thanks a ton for the spec. though, I appreciate it.

I just got another one too, I e-mailed husky to ask them, and they said "current models have 5.5Hp. Sorry for the mis-print." Straight from the husky's mouth.

Had an 032 that did pretty much the same thing, thought I was chasing a carb gremlin, but the spark would be nice bright, then weak and erratic 5min later.

I was looking to bump the compression up a little on my play saw, is there any rule of thumb for how tight you can run the squish? I've played around with snowmobiles and alot of guys will run the squish a little tighter the smaller the piston gets, but saws are a little smaller than I'm...

Why do I see two different Hp numbers for the 575xp? a lot of ad's spec. it at 5.4hp while the husky site sets it at 5.8? did the earlier models have 5.4 and the current have 5.8? just curious.
