I picked up a sweet little 028 AV Wood Boss yesterday. One owner, always serviced, but she's a dirty little girl. I figured after reading a bunch of reviews on beloved saws, this would be a great first rebuild for me to get my hands dirty on. The piston and cylinder look good so far (still need the right torx bit to remove cylinder screws), but everything else is apart. I have not split the case, as the crank seems complete rigid. Zero play besides in and out when the drive side clips are removed. There is a little play in the rotation of the flywheel. Is that normal?
I did have a couple of questions though. What size are the small ignition wires (the yellow and black ones)?
And I saw that someone else upgraded to the 46mm piston and cylinder and had fitment problems with the muffler. Can up just upgrade the piston to a meteor 44mm piston and rings and avoid any other fitment issues? There is a little play in the rotation of the flywheel. Is that normal?
