    Sold Solo 603 is alive! A piston substitute that works…

    Thanks to Jacob J, my solo 603 can throw chips again. Just wanted to give props to him for his suggestion and let anyone out there who is looking for a substitute piston know that it works. I used an aftermarket Partner 1200k piston and she runs great. Well I haven’t had the chance to tube it...

    Want to Trade Compatible piston for a solo 603

    Does anyone have an idea of what might possibly work as a replacement piston for a 56mm Solo 603? I have ms660 big bore pistons and they are too short. I have 056 mag pistons and can’t find a wrist pin that would work….what about a husqvarna 2100?

    Want to Buy KIORITZ ECHO CS-802s starter/recoil and clutch cover

    Howdy all. Haven’t been on here in years… I picked up an Appointment ECho CS-802S not long ago. It is complete and has compression, is just missing the clutch cover and the recoil is busted off so I’m looking for both of these. There’s not much out there… if you have something please pm me.

    I've never been stumped by a saw until now.... Stihl 026

    OMG...you're not tracking. We determined it was the carb when I clamped the line. That was solved and case closed... After we figured that out someone asked why I pulled the p/c. That was in reference to my doing so BEFORE the carb was determined to be the problem... You're obviously not...

    i disassembled the carb and cleaned it early in the game. I would have noticed if it was assembled incorrectly. Thanks though.

    come on....of course I did that. I wanted to see if a circlip damaged the cylinder elsewhere....dig a little deeper...i made sure there was fuel in the gas tank when i tried to start it too. I even used mix gas!

    What? You wouldn't find anything wrong with the carb by checking the cylinder...I simply stated that I wasn't going to troubleshoot the carb if I found a problem in the cylinder, i.e. circlip damage etc. Jesus, no need to be a prick. You're the one who misread it.

    really? I'd rather not order a rebuild kit until I take the 5 minutes to pull the cylinder and see if the carb is worth fusing with. I don't keep carb rebuild kits around seeing as I have to use one every 50th saw or so....I've had a lot more scored pistons than failed carbs...

    I tried a different diaphram out of another wt carb but switched it back when it didn't work.

    no, its the opposite of that...lol. it fired with no filter on and with a pinched fuel line.

    in the absence of hemos I zip-tied a tweezers around the fuel line. i had the saw sitting upside down with the plug out already to purge any excess fuel. I put the tweezers on, put the plug in and it fired right up. Thanks. So i guess a carb rebuild is in order??
