So unless you go with a nikasil Meteor (or maybe a Hyway), this is basically what you're gonna get whether you pay $10 or $80 for one of the less costly 192T chrome kits available from most all of the vendors. (I've seen em as low as 9 bux). The first thing you'll notice in the pic (or...

Has anyone had experience with the aftermarket seals for the 1115 saws? I just installed them on an 045 rebuild and the flywheel side went in wayyyy too easy. Was a double lip rubber covered seal. PTO side was a normal double lip seal with a normal metal body. I always use Dirko on the O.D. just...

This is copied from the 'Thread Notifications NOT Working' thread to hopefully help anyone in general who may still be having email notification issues and who hasn't been part of that discussion. There's been qute a bit of frustration associated with the change in forum format along with some...

Does anyone have pics of both electronic and points 031 flywheels for comparison of key way location relative to magnet position..., and perhaps actual measurements of the differences for converting to an electronic module using a points flywheel? Lakeside did this some time ago, but it was...

Working on an 031 AV that has the Walbro WA-2 carb with what seems to be a fuel delivery issue. Came to me with a new carb kit so that's the first thing I checked. All looked good until I checked the IPL to see if there was supposed to be a diaphragm under the circuit plate (doesn't appear to...

Any solutions/suggestions for removing this? None of my several 08S IPL's are old enough to show this type of spider. It appears to be threaded, but is also clearly indexed somehow making me think it's a press fit like the carriers that are actually tapped for removal with a specialty tool made...

Yes. They make a 250 crank especially for Brazil. LOL Anyone know what the difference is? Keyway set for slightly retarded timing maybe? I ask because I'm wondering if I may have a FarmerTec 250 crank that was copied from the Brazilion version. May not be an issue with the regular 1123...

Anyone had success doing this? Advertised to work according to HLS. Doesn't in my particular case. Bolts right up as one would expect but appears to have serious ignition issues due to the crank keyway possibly not being compatible with the timing of a MS210 flywheel and coil? TIA for any...

Anyone successfully defeated the C1Q-S258 accelerator pump?

M-Tronic v3.0 ECU's (coils) are now being introduced domestically as replacements for MS661's with the last Gen 2 coils (1144-400-4720) no longer being restocked with 1144-400-4703 as the new part number. The main difference is the calibration routine has been greatly simplified and doesn't...

Passes all tests in the shop manual including micro switch diode test. Wiring continuity passes everywhere. Latest greatest 'D' ECU (coil). New plug (have tried several). Carb and solenoid are used OEM replacements from another saw. Harness is new. No MDG available for further analysis. (The...

Three different new OEM condensers in a row have failed on an 032 I've been working on. Points are perfectly clean and set with the crank stub tool. Coil tests good with a Stihl bench testing setup as did all of the condensers prior to installation. Saw starts and runs great for 20 minutes or so...

Did the 1140 series ever use the round air filter setup from the 1141 saws? A guy brought me what appears to be a MS391 with the MS291 air filter setup. Didn't have a chance to measure the bore, but the rear handle had an 1140 part number prefix. KInd of a head scratcher.

??????? (Thought maybe the direct question approach may generate a little more traffic than my last thread.) http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/3120xp-throttle-lock-kit.311317/ I'm totally stumped on this one.

Trying to figure out how this kit replaces the redneckery already in place. There would seem to be a very small machine screw missing that would secure the knob (boss?) to the shaft and capture the spring between the knob and the trigger. None shown in any of the IPLs I've checked and there...

Someone evidently thinks it'd be ok. This is from a Hyway p/c kit. Piston is nice (aside from the obvious) and the cylinder is very nice. But...... .....this slop is excessive and seems like a needle cage failure just waiting to happen once it gets a chance to start sliding back and forth a...

I'm looking for possible options to replace the piston in my Mac PM8200. It's the last of the 82cc Macs and a departure from the previous design in that it uses a three piece crank with circlip style pin bosses for the piston vs. the earlier press fit pins..., which is why none of the other 82cc...

Was scrounging around for file-o-plate sources the other evening and ran across this...from the newest 2017 Carlton Master Catalog. Also notice the models have been reduced to what appears to be just 5 variations for the common file sizes compared to the original 10 or so. Anyone have any inside...

Ran across this on CL with a bunch of bulk chain and a ton of loops. Also got a heavy-duty Foley Belsaw breaker in the deal, but the orange ones have no identifying marks or stamps except "Made in Italy" on the chain support discs. That would suggest Tecomec, but I haven't found anything...

Trying to I.D. this saw and above is as close as I've been able to get so far..., though the muffler and automatic oiler don't seem to add up according to Acres' info and pic. A buddy of mine picked it up for free yesterday. Aside from the surface grime, it's in really good shape..., except...
