441c piston/cylinder replacement troubles

[Payson Oberly]

I'm thinking there must be something I'm missing... Trying to replace piston and head but can't seem to get to the intake manifold/boot. Am I missing something? Also can't get the carb free. Not used to all the wires and cables on m-tronic. Thanks in advance!

Did you get the 4 T27 M4s out? If you did I’ve found that the intake is pretty stuck on there after the heat sinks and time.

Post a picture of the front of carb so we can see where you are. Wire comes off kinda tricky remember where it is in the stop as it is easy to put it in the wrong place and only get 1/2 throttle when done.

Got carb off, still hooked up to wires and took pictures to not forget placement... head bolts off too. Can't get to the hose clamp (at least that's what's on my other saw) holding it all together

Now you need to push the two intakes through that plastic thing with the studs. After that you will see the 4 screws.

No hose clam on this one to hold it on the cylinder. That’s now 4 screws.

Ha. Now simple. Can't believe i didn't figure that out myself! Thank you kindly!

Lo and behold. There they are.

Now that intake mechanism is pretty stuck on there and getting the throttle cable is kind of a pain. Otherwise a walk in the park.

When a wrist pin snap ring decides it can't hang anymore...

Master Mechanic sells roach clips?

Lol apparently!

We have an APP that is running your fingerprints, btw.....

So this is a "virgin" teardown?
Or has this saw been rebuilt ?

Any of you guys have any good 441 rear handles
