crew discovered after about 2 weeks of use that their 231 c stihl will go much better if they had refitted the air filter back on carb after a field service

i used it for a mo last week & wondered hmm why was poorly tuned but gave it less thought as i often give up on their saws as so crappy blunt and feel like been in saw whore house...

curious what year would that saw be? I spent 6 months hanging off one just like that in hmm 1984 it tried to bite me a few times but had the new fangle inertia brake system sure saved my skin

Its a early case for sure, the throttle linkage hole is a rectangle slot not round hole and 2 piece ignition. The fuel tank is later as it takes the newer fuel line. The pistons and cylinder are early as they are single ring full cirlce skirt.

im just luvin the simplicity of design that pull starter cord even i could replace easy a pie the rest is just keep it simple elegance on a friday avo id strip clean sharpen 3 or 4 of them ready for monday in a farm shed @ Point cook i'd struggle to stretch that time for 1 hour so we make sure the boss was away an **** off early..

yeah im a big fan of the 2 series saws. A combination of light weight, simplicity and good design. The 272 and 288 having good av and great filtration with the HD filters. Id love to make a 266 stock appearing alcohol saw. The combustion chamber in the 266 is tiny! much much smaller than the 272.

 

[peter92]

Sold it yet and where did you pick up the cylinder from
Im hoping the cylinder on mine is ok
Will let you all know
Peter

 

[husq2100]

Not Sold yet Peter. I picked up most my parts years ago from Ebay USA. I was buying heaps of bits and pieces when the dollar was good. I couldnt be bothered selling all my parts so bit the bullet and built up complete saws.

False economy and I new id take a loss with buying all the little items to finish them off, but easier to sell. A bloke in Tassie just bought my 288, he will be VERY happy. The 266 is the only non complete saw I will sell

are the cylinders easy to come by , genuine not after market

 

[husq2100]

not that im aware. Especially the older pistons, you wont get them easy at all. Husqvarna Australia could probably get you a new OEM cylinder piston kit but id bet it would be $500 or more!

 

[460cixy]

I went to local dealer the other day for a price on piston for 3120 and was told $300 I laughed and said no its not as I walked out. Fuk rip off kitties

 

[peter92]

fixed the starter rope and got it running , after a tune , runs not bad

Peter, if you pull it down, under the fly wheel, bolted to the case is a plastic "seal ring". The crank seal presses into it and it goes over the crank. It also has a O ring on the underside. Look after it, its NLA. O rings no problem, its the same as the large one on the oiler. Make sure you use washers under the 3 socket cap screws and dont over tighten. Looks like the old aluminium tank, Im gussing they take the old style fuel line as well. You probably have the coarse thread crank which requires a specific clutch also.
