Takes a die-grider and some patience, but it's well worth it! Also, the carb inlet from the air filter has a smaller hole in it than the carb. Open up that and you'll see a huge improvement in throttle response. Be sure to pull the carb limiters and re-tune. Mine was dangerously lean out of...

You said that you blew out the pump with compressed air. Did you check that the infeed hose from the tank didn't get forced off of the pump inside the resevoir? Check the hose for blockage as well?

The upper tang that attaches to the brake handle should be down in the V-notch. See picture attached. As far as the oiler, do you have the gears installed and engaged prior to installing the side cover? I seem to remember there's a snap-ring that needs to be installed on the clutch drum gear...

My first MACs!!! Stumbled upon a couple Macs the other day at a rummage sale that needed a good home. Mac 3200 Mac 130 The standard IPL's and Manual would be a great help. As always, thanks in advance!! :cheers:

Husky 257 - IPL and Shop Manual I'm looking for an IPL and Shop Manual for a neighbor's Husky 257. Great saw, needs a new clutch assy though. Thanks in advance!! :beer:

A buddy of mine uses this stuff on his christmas tree farm. Schaeffer Oil | Citrol Citrus Cleaner & Industrial Degreaser More of a cleaner, but I'm sure a spray down with it before hand could only help.

That I could not tell you. I have a 42mm WB and a 46mm Super, and there is a BIG difference between those two. The WB barely pulls a 16in 3/8, and the Super wears an 18in 3/8 (with a light touch in hardwood).

There's alot of aluminum missing from that piston, but you may get lucky and it's just on top of the plating of the cylinder, and has not scratched through it. I've got two of these saws and they are just plain awesome. Super reliable and fun to use. If you need just a piston make sure you...

Ok, here's a question for some of the guys that live in warmer climates than myself. I had my 361 out today doing some storm cleanup, and brought it back to clean it up when I noticed the recoil cover was all clogged up. I proceeded to remove it and continue my cleaning when I realized that...

I switched over to 3/8 for simplicity, and interchange-ability. Now all the saws run the same b/c. I have all 3/8 .050 and the 028WB wears a 16" and the 028Super an 18". If I were all about speed of cut i would keep the .325 on the 028's. I like how I only have one chain size on all the saws...

:agree2: What he said...err showed. Pics rock! :cheers:

Check your PM box.

Make sure the finger-spring on the left side of the housing is making good contact with the wire end while the wire is in place. Sometimes the spring isn't bent into the correct spot and then pushes the wire out. To answer your question about the kill switch, the switch will just come by...

Well, got 'her all back together. Found a used Trac-Loc carrier and slapped some new clutches in it along with the Dodge heavy-duty clutch pack retaining clips. Aftermarket gears and a full bearing set. Altogether a hair under $600 in parts. Had to fab up a tool out of some large nuts and...

If the saw seem like it's about to die at idle, and seems like it's 'missing' but when you pull the trigger to WOT she doesn't hesitate you've got yourself a good runnin' tuned Stihl horizontal cylinder saw. There is nothing like the sound of them, enjoy it! You're right, the hit/miss kinda...

One word: Saaweeet!! :cheers:

He ordered parts yesterday, all bearings and seals, R&P set, new carrier with LSD clutches were $580. That doesn't include labor obviously, but a complete used axle is $1100 reguardless of where it is in the country. Then you have to either go get it or have it dock dropped. (READ: $$$) I...

He's broken a front axle shaft, had two sets of heads replaced, and a cam to boot. Now the pinion nut backed out somehow and let the pinion eat away at the carrier, along with the rest of the metal chunks in the gear lube the clips for the LSD clutch packs are broken. I don't know if it is...

Does anyone have any info on a Dodge 9.25" rear axle, with limited slip in a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500?? A buddy of mine just grenaded his, and rebuilds are only $1100, but parts are in the neighborhood of $400. I've setup rear ends in the past, but always had a diagram or illustration to help. I...
