    Cylinder bolts won't tighten after 029 to 039 conversion

    Funny thing is, the silver ones grabbed better than the OEM bolts. I was able to get them tight upon initial install. It wasn't until I went to start the saw that the bolts came loose.

    They look the same as OEM. In the attached pic, OEM are the darker bolts.

    Either way, the bottom line is the Hyway cylinder is crap. We'll find out tomorrow how SawAgain's customer service is.

    Thanks for the input. Good to have confirmation I'm not going crazy. I would recommend everyone let SawAgain know when there are issues. Otherwise there is no chance of the issues getting resolved for future purchasers. No, I havent checked for seal but I will if I end up being stuck with...

    Cylinder bolts won't tighten after 029 to 039 conversion

    I'd have to pull the cylinder to get a look at the threads but I'm confident they are intact. When I initially installed the bolts and two of the original bolts wouldn't tighten up, I took a good look at the threads then and they looked ok. I wouldn't recommend the Hyway 49 mm short block at...

    I didn't overtighten the bolts. Threads are fine on all the bolts. Rather, I would say it was a poor thread job on the new cylinder. I chose to get the Hyway cylinder because of the recommendations on a previous thread on this forum. I'm just looking to see if anyone else has experienced...

    Cylinder bolts won't tighten after 029 to 039 conversion

    The bolts can only go in from the bottom and no room for a nut on top of bolts. The holes were pre threaded and I was told by SawAgain to use my original bolts, which have the same threads as the bolts that came with new cylinder. I called SawAgain to ask why I couldn't use the new bolts - they...

    Cylinder bolts won't tighten after 029 to 039 conversion

    Bought a Hyway 49mm short block for my 029 Super from SawAgain since my original bearings were shot and had a little scoring on piston. I've tried the original cylinder bolts and the set that came with the new cylinder and they all thread in but won't tighten. Anyone ever heard of this...
