Cool the bigger carb , can you tell me what chain brake this sView attachment 427734 aw needs metal or plastic?

Early style of brake with metal handle.Parts are NLA for this type.Better a used one with a plastic handle,easier to work on .

Thanks...will it bolt on to my clutch cover? I like the look of the metal better.

I suspect you need more than just the metal brake handle on that cover, and the plasic handle will not fit at all. What you really need is a newer cover, with plastic brake, if you can't find used or NOS parts - and want a chain brake.

Yes your right again my clutch cover is in real good shape but has no parts on it, can anyone help me out?

The chain brakes were optional back then, so the saw may never have had one.

All I can help with, is the IPL from june 1985, that shows the parts and part numbers (frame A). http://www.barrettsmallengine.com/partslist/husqvarna266-1985-06.PDF

I suspect it doesn't help much though, so as I and others said, you likely need to get a newer cover, with the plastic handle.

I'm liking this saw regaled the mag to .015 it was .035 starts on first pull now idles well throttles good chain oiler works, looking thru plug hole pistons clean you can see arrow on top of piston.

sweet saw perry good luck w the chainbrake situation

That saw looks very nice - but what's up with the air intake?

Is there an air filter at all, or are a K&N type filter supposed to sit on the wide metal tube that is protruding at the rear of the top cover? That is not standard (or OEM), and the top cover obviously has been cut into....

Also, the wrap handlebar is a sign that the saw likely is from the left coast of the US. The saw seems to have been modified along the lines of the Jonsered "West Coast" saws?

Liking that full wrap...

 

[Perry pioneer]

Yeah it's supposed to have foam or k&n looks goofy . need new top and stock type filter.

Down Perry! Down Boy!

It's probably modified a bit, yes.
The rest seems to me that it have been maintained well, at least on the photos you've shown so far.
Would like to see more pictures of it. Can not really get enough of pictures from the 2xx series to Husky.

 

[cus_deluxe]

wow, that thing is clean. Though it is a shame someone hacked up a very nice top cover for a big velocity stack.

 

[Perry pioneer]

Damn cell phone no bars not working good

 

[bag-o-donuts]

I agree about it being a bit of a shame as that top cover is otherwise pretty nice, but I kinda like the stack... call me crazy.
