Huskyvarnya Saws
ArboristSite Member
I finally got around to building this saw after it sat for a couple of years in pieces (I bought it that way). I knew it had some case rot near the carb, but it wasn't a big deal to me considering this saw isn't going to be anything worth looking at to begin with. After I split the case I noticed some pitting on the mating surfaces during clean up. Then I noticed a bit more near where the cylinder mounts. Do you guys think I should just get another case? Or would it be ok if I use some threebond with the case gasket and seal her up? This is my first time dealing with case rot, so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
I started trying to clean up some of the rot near the carb, but that was before I split the case and saw the rest. There doesn't seem to be any major pitting on the mating surfaces around the crank.
