Hi folks,
I am new to doing a lot of my own repairs but I am getting through it.
I consulted my small engine books and couldn't find any info on caring for the bottom end of my saw.
I recently got a replacement for the P&C on my 372.
I didn't clean the area around the muffler well before taking off the cylinder. I dont see any visible dirt in the crank case but I am worried some got down in there.
What is the best way to clean that area out and what/how much should i lube it up with before putting the P&C back on and sealing the gasket.
My gut says just dump a bunch of saw gas in there and pour it our a few times then pour in some 2 stroke oil but I wanted to check with the experts.
Thanks,
Buckbo
