I do not know if this clutch is from this model but it is for sure worked out

 

[Woodslasher]

prognosis is good for the 288.

the top end has transfer but no actual scoring i can see/feel and the bottom end feels tight and smooth. it will still need to come apart as i managed to drop an amazing amount of grot/wasp nest into the bottem end.

it won't be tackled straight away but has been jumped a fair way up the que.

it also comes with a fully custom muffler mod!

i am not sure what is going on with the clutch, note the 2-3mm gap all round. i am guessing it has been swapped.

sorry i didn't get p&c pics.

That's the correct clutch, it's just worn out.

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

Good clutch

 

[atpchas]

Agreed and it looks like one or two of the shoes are starting to crack at the thin spots. An explosion would not be pleasant.

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

the shoes remain in place until the spring comes off

 

[mbrick]

Wow that clutch is WORN out!! Complete with cracks.

 

[henry r]

i hadn't noticed the crack but had put a new clutch on the list.

Got this 075AV for tuning up two Huskys. It was a damn mess but it cleaned up real nice. Runs real good too.

 

[Kommandokenny]

Wow!!!!! awesome job on the 075!!!!!!!
Cleaning up 031 now.
Compression 130 psi,,, but no spark .
Turns out it's from 1980 ,,,so not as old as I thought

 

[henry r]

two free saws in a week!!!

i was given an 031 today!

it feels like the recoil isn't catching the flywheel, but that is as far as i have gotten.
this one hasn't jumped the que so may take a while to get to.

Does this count? I found something interesting and very useful at the thrift store the other day.
There's a ton of information to look through in here, but the best thing I've found so far is this troubleshooting chart for all the different problems that a 2 stroke might have. It's a very comprehensive diagnostic tool.
I'm not sure what the policy here is on posting images of things like that, so I only took a photo of part of it to be safe. You get the idea.

Just picked this up at the local saw shop while looking for files... Don't need it but the price was too good to let it sit there...($250.00) with bar and chain. Runs great! Nice partner for my 272!!

Notice how thin the clutch shoes are at the end of the spyder. Worn out is my thought.
