Yes as a gasket dressing...


I see nothing that would make me think a dry gasket will fail.. You know this is not helping me wait for the yammabond4 to come in...

Quit stalling and get to work. :laugh:

Like Rob said, with a stihl gasket no worries. I do use some stickem with aftermarket gaskets though.
 
smooth like butta.....

now before I install the oil seals I have read folks are using grease on them... Why??? what type of grease???

Grease or 2 cycle oil or whatever. The purpose it to not distort, tear, or allow the seal to flex enough to pop the spring off the inside of it. I have done that before on an 028. Just lube it with something. Grease lasts longer though in my opinion.

Another thing i do is spin the crank as i install the crank if its a "cases split" rebuild. Cuts down on friction and the possibilities of stated above issues.

I just bought a base and filter. The hard one right now is the cover, but i will win that one too. I'm throwing everything i have at my 064. It will be a sweet running saw when its done.
