If your crankshaft has any rust or any debris on it when the flywheel tightens down, it will shear the key. Also take some brake cleaner and put it on the crankshaft and make sure it's really clean. A bit of grease or oil will cause this. How are the bearings on the crankcase? If you have one that is shot, it will cause the flywheel to spin out of round and shear the key.

PS I thought you were going to send that saw out. If you want to trade it off, PM me.

Let us know what the problem is when you get it. Seen less drama on "days of our lives".

Probably won't have to do any more than I suggested. 5 minutes worth of work. The flywheel could be cracked, but if it is, that may be because it has been spun a bunch of times.:msp_rolleyes:

i checked the fly wheel and it's not cracked or anything. just to be on the safe side i bought a new fly wheel off e-bay still in the wrapping. so i say the crank has a bad bearing or something. because i just got done checking everything again and i can pull the crank on it up and down with the fly wheel tightend and torqued down.

I'd say you have 2 problems and one has nothing to do with the other. A flopping crank and properly tightened flywheel will tear the hell out of the saw before it ever shears the key.

I'm not trying to discourage you, but I've given away or parted out much nicer 041s than that one. I'd chunk it in the trash and move on.
