    That's awesome. I know it can be a little pricey. But it's a nice relaxing hobby.

    I'm still waiting for an abundance of parts, But here is where I'm at right now.

    Basket case MS460(Symptoms of CAD)

    I've been ordering parts like it's my job. Some are Chinese. A lot are oem used or new. I have a used OEM piston and cylinder coming, as well as a meteor piston. Just in case the OE isn't so nice. I know I'm not doing this the right way because Whatever I can't find used, I just buy new. If I...

    Would you use a meteor piston over a factory piston?

    I only ask because the 460 is a 52mm bore but the big bore kit is 54mm, while the stock 660 is also a 54mm bore. Unless I misread information somewhere.

    Does a factory 660 piston and cylinder fit on the 460?

    I shouldn't say that the crank was seized. It moved, but just barely. I think the saw was straight gassed. It appears that the roller bearings on the crank are completely dry, and had probably overheated. The big end of the rod spins feeely.

    The saw showed up today. Crank is siezed. I've already heated and split the case. It's all pulled apart. I'll be ordering parts soon, as well as posting some pictures.

    Thanks for the idea. I'll probably give it a try

    I'm trying to figure out the best way to clean it up, and be able to fill in the missing paint. Or how to repaint it completely with the original graphic.

    I did take a look at it, the manual assist works. Still not so sure about the automatic oiler though.

    Thanks guys. I used a spray can of Rustoleum Farm equipment paint. It wasn't quite the same shade of yellow, but it turned out nicely.

    This saw isn't really oall that special, but I thought i could give it a good home. Freshly cleaned, painted and reassembled.

    Thank you. This is a neat little saw. I'm not sure if it is oiling properly, I'll have to look into it further. Also, still waiting for the carb kit to show up so I can tear it down and give it a thorough cleaning.

    Now, all cleaned freshly painted, and back together. I know it's not the same shade of yellow, but it's close enough for me.

    The saw showed up a couple of days ago. I pulled it all apart almost immediately. Turned out the fuel line had a crack right where it attached to the carb. I cut it back and reattached it. I also ordered a carb kit just for good measure. It starts and runs, but needs a good cleaning. I spent...

    I have a saw on the way and it is in need of a replacement P&C. Thanks for any help.

    Than I suppose I'll just keep looking for a factory 460 set.
