I guess shes oiling pretty good now!

 

[William Balaska]

That's a flywheel from a saw wth electronic ignition, also your saw had electronic ignition from the factory as the stator plate would hold the seal and there would be no seal race in a points ignition saw. You can convert over to a new style starter but you need the flywheel and correct ignition to go with it (coil and module) and starter housing. Let me see if I can get some pictures.

So that trigger only replaces points?

 

[Rockfarmer]

the saw did run with the wrong flywheel, would start and idle fine but the top end, wot was all whacky

 

[William Balaska]

There u go as I suspected it did not run correct.

 

[William Balaska]

Trigger module

 

[William Balaska]

Later module. Mount on top.

 

[Rockfarmer]

Thanks for that pic Bill! If it ran before with elec ignition flywheel (the wapsa) i think it will again with the pawl style starter cup. Why not? I had that saw running wot for days, couldn't slow her down. I wish I had all the sawdust she made I'd start my own wood pellet factory!! ;-)

 

[Rockfarmer]

That later module is a Stihl part. Does that replace the previous trigger module?

 

[William Balaska]

Yeah I tried the nova once in a 075 it does not work properly. U need to get the correct ignition in that saw or it will never work properly. or get a single magnet points flywheel and attempt to get the timing correct.

Yes it does, however I beieve the flyweels may be different. The modules that mounted under the flywheel went bad from the heat and hence where placed on top of the saw and this corrected the problem. I have one complete ignition left but am going to keep it as these are my favorites to build. I built a long block yesterday for the first time in two years finally motivated again since my dad passed I lost my ambition.

 

[William Balaska]

I pulled all the boxes of parts out as well yesterday good to have a stockpile.

 

[Rockfarmer]

Sorry about your dad passing, my condolences.

If your saw came with points it required a specific coil. Then came some early electric that had a doughnut looking trigger. Then there was an electric coil with a trigger that came mounted on the cases below the top handle. I have 2 051 and a 076. If I get time next weekend. I will tear them down and post some picture. I have some parts saws too.

Pogo you think you had a heck of a time with the oiler wait until you see all the ignition combos.

 

[William Balaska]

Actually u can adjust the points right through the window and a feeler gage is all u need. The windows are large on this flywheel so it's easy to adjust.

I hear ya, Scott. Found that out doing a little research through DDave's material for Rockfarmer before Mr. Balaska so graciously stepped in and bailed me out!

(Thanks, William!) And +1 about your Dad. Great to see ya back into it a little...and we can use all the help you can give us here!

Agreed! Thanks Bill! You are an asset to this site as all of you are, many thanks appreciated to all!!

 

[William Balaska]

Much appreciated. Here is the unit I am putting back in service. First year 051. Went with a full wrap on this old girl. Forgot to order the worm drive seal and stator o ring otherwise almost all done.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

That's a sweet one.
