Sold HUSQVARNA 562XP

As noted by others although no scoring present the piston does show some wear. Have you ran a compression test with a quality compression tester? It would be interesting to know what it is reading

I did take it down to a local shop that had a small engine compression tester...was told it tested at 110.

Not good on that saw

They are sweet saws to play with, however, too expensive to fix if they need any major work. Last one I repaired I had over half the cost of a new saw just in parts. 2016 model, bearings came apart in. Trashed the bottom and top ends.

It is rare I will entertain repair let alone buying something with bad bearings.

Agreed

As I am only looking to sell the saw and not repair it, I am open to suggestions on a fair asking price? Even as a parts saw, it has some value. What's your thoughts?

Most I'd go is $175.00 not including shipping, and no I don't want it.

Wasn't my saw, was fixing it for someone. Tried to talk him out of it. And just buy a new one.

I truly hate lowballers but I will give you $160 plus UPS shipping on my dime. If you like that I can PP you in minutes.

I did a lot of research on the 562XP before I bought one in 2020. The Husqvarna rep told me that the early models had issues with crank bearings,and seal failures once the bearing cages came apart. This caused a lean out which cooked the piston. The 2020 model year and up had improved bearings, larger top cover and air filter and more case bolts according to the Husky rep.

The case was updated in 2016, the bearings had many updates over the years, as well as the fuel lines, the top cover, eventually air filter and several carbs/ignition modules.

When was the last update on bearings?

Not entirely sure, most recent I know about was in 2020. I know there were 2 or 3 times part numbers changed before that.

I ran a 2022 model. Probably best for me to go find 2021 or newer. I'd rather not split one.
Can kick myself later about this.
Browse time is over.

Either the 2020 or 2021 model had several updates to it.

The 2020 model was the big upgrade. I read recently that they did come out with a Mark II version last year.
