Stihl 064 Rebuild and Restoration!

[Mastermind]

Don't get that pump too hot Dan.

Heat the case half real good.......stick the pump on and drop the bearing. Work quick, and don't be afraid to tap the bearing a little if needed.

Get everything together beforehand.....hammer, bearing driver, etc......

Ok thanks for the heads up! I was going to look through your bearing install thread again before I do it.

Randy should Dan take Pump apart and not have any rubber or o rings in it to keep heat off it ?

I would pull the plastic piece off the end.....

Kolbenschmidt cylinder. Im told they have better port timing numbers! Maybe Randy or Brad or someone else can chime in and explain in more detail what the differences are.

Thanks, I have only seen Mahle 064 cylinders

Sweet thread! Makes me want to do the same to my ragged-looking 088.

Awww come on mam as long as she still pulls keep her like she is! My old 064 looks like hell people are impressed when they see it in the cut. Except when I sharpen by hand and she binds up mid cut h ahhaha. I should have stopped after the first drink good night all.!

Just drop the oil line into a quart jar full of nearly boiling water.........easy peasy.

Oh so John wasn't drinking moonshine through a straw in your thread? I will do that and hopefully it goes easy.
