    What's on your bench

    So, I took my 044 over to Wood's Logging Supply as the same guy that's been a mech/tech there for eons was willing to check my junk out. Anyhoo... He made me a deal I couldn't refuse and it's there getting the cylinder "cleaned up a little" ;) and a new Stihl piston and rings put in it. Mainly...

    Can't have the box ? You can't be serious.

    Things are good! When I started the tear down of the ol' 044 workhorse it just seemed natural to jump back on here and play around a bit. :) Hope you are well too! Gary

    Stihl being sold in box stores now.

    Best part about living where I live is logging saw shops that both support and work on both Stihl and Husqvarna saws. Wood's Logging Supply and Madsen's Logging and Saw Supply are both badass... Ever since the local mower and Stihl saw shop closed after the owner passed and the family closed...

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    Lol... nah, that dude is "diagnosing" a problem... not the "problem" I have. Main prob with this saw is the crappy design in the first place. HAHAHA! My BIL got it for free, and he's never owned a saw before. So it's better he learns on this one and destroys it before we get him a different...

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    What's on your bench

    I have my 10mm pin 044 apart and deciding on whether i want to put a Meteor jug and piston kit on it and send it. Or look for an OEM piston and rings and clean up the stock jug. There is not aluminum transfer on the cylinder, but the piston has some decent scratches on it. Oooorrrr.... maybe...

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    That makes sense... I didn't get a chance to look last night, but that hole being the bar oil tank vent is probably what is going on That seems like a weird way to vent a tank... lol That is the saw in question, yes. Gary

    Benefits to adding a dual port or bark box muffler

    Sorry to OP for a slight derail... I'm finding that out for stock replacement parts. Might end up just going with a Meteor 10mm top end kit. I removed the jug last night and it looks okayish. But the piston has some scoring I don't particularly like and want to replace. This saw has got...

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    I need to look closer. We were cutting a bunch of wood and I just told him to stop cutting with it and let him use my 028 until we were done. I'll check it out and report back. Gary

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    I looked at the IPL, and I "think" there is a bolts that goes in there that holds on the side cover. But not 100% sure. Gary

    I've been out of the game for a bit, but that's the first time I've heard slant fin to describe a 10mm saw. LOL Gary

    If it's possible... I might be looking for an 044 (10mm pin) jug soon. ;) Gary

    Husqvarna 240 Pic Request

    My Bro-in-law just picked up a used Husqvarna 240 in pretty dang good shape. When he was cutting with it the chain got hot as all get out, and when I checked it for him, I discovered that the chain was getting no oil. But I noticed oil pooling along the front of the clutch cover when the saw...

    Benefits to adding a dual port or bark box muffler

    My stepson keeps wanting to put one of theses bark boxes on his 046. His 046 already has the stock large port and a stock dual port cover as well. I told him forget the bark box and just tune properly what he has. My 10mm pin 044 (1993) has a stock large port exhaust and no dual port and...

    mixing ratios for 2 stroke chainsaws

    2-strokes have a lubrication requirement... not an amount of oil requirement. :innocent: Gary
