    Need advice on piston/cylinder state (550xp)

    That's what i'm going to do. It's a personal saw and not for a living. Maybe if it runs great I would be tempted to sell it and buy an MK2, just because :dumb:. Since I have my 572 which is an improved version, everything seems to go better with it... I run stihl oil, 50:1 (in liters, not in...

    Need advice on piston/cylinder state (550xp)

    The saw behavior wasn't so bad, on the last cuts the saw almost died in a cut but was fine after. I'll definitely change the ring since i'm there. That puts me another question: You guys always do the auto-tune gets its data each time you use the saw? Since my use isn't regular (can use my saw...

    Need advice on piston/cylinder state (550xp)

    So I did a little test this morning with my compression gauge. On my brand new 572 (two tanks so far), reading was 110 psi with an adaptor, and 140 psi direct. I had to check my 550 with an adaptor since the gauge doesn't screw directly. My gauge is similar to that one...

    Need advice on piston/cylinder state (550xp)

    Pretty much. I must admit I should have tested it on my brand new 572 before to be absolutely sure... But the test gauge isn't very old too and from a good brand. I'll try it tomorrow. Beside the scratch on the exhaust side, everything seems okay. Will buy new base and exhaust gaskets and crank...

    Need advice on piston/cylinder state (550xp)

    Hi folks, Been long time since I went here, was pretty busy and now 2 kids (2 years old and 1 month old). Just bought a second saw for limber (572XP), so far loving it! My smaller saw (550XP, MY 2012 with about 40 hours of use) had some hot start issues so I did a compression test, the reading...

    Well, both. She was hard to start, but after SEVERAL cord pull. With no proper "sequence" or knowledge of how this particular carb with the button works, that could be the only thing why it's hard to start when cold. I've never faced that kind of primer before, and since it was running good...

    I did some tests yesterday. When only purging air with the bulb and then holding the button 4-5 seconds (as described in the walbro doc) it does about nothing. But purging the air (4-5 purge pulse) and after holding the button while purging again 3-4 times, seems to go better.. I'll have to try...

    Haha i'm starting to think of something magic yeah! So you were right about the part of holding the button 3-4 seconds and start! I'll try that tomorrow and see if it helps.

    Ok, after a lot of reading and looking on the web, i've found that the carb seems a lot like (if it's not) a Walbro WYK-10. http://www.walbro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/WYKseries.pdf So, the button is a "starter button - prime", and as it's written it is supposed to force fuel from the pump...

    I will try that, but I agree with you that's the worst kind of choke system i've seen, if it's what it is.

    Yep, the purge bulb can be accessed. Seems to be 2 separate things, but i don't have a clue what it does! Could that be a kind of bypass, like you have to press the button when purging with the bulb at the same time?

    Nop! no choke. The button is going back as soon as you depress it. When the engine is running and I press it, there's bubbles going through what seems to be the overflow hose.

    **Please move post to the proper section if it's not okay here.** Hi, been away for a while, didn't have much time to spend on my saws. I just bought a Husqvarna 132R brushcutter for $30 (40$ CAN) on kijiji. Seller says "hard to start" and comes with a box full of spare parts (read: whole...
