515 and 518 are both fuel resistant, though there are likely other products that would work as well. I happen to be using a tube of 518 right now. both 515 and 518 seem to be fine.

Rebuild complete! Thank you guys for all your help, much appreciated!
For the break in period, I added some extra oil to the first tank of fuel, and I can already feel the compression rising.
While in the process of rebuilding, I obtained a Stihl MS260 that did not run well, starts and idles, but dies when reeving up.
I inspected the carb, seems that the very tip of the high speed needle was rusted, so I cleaned that off, and now it
runs great! Also waiting on a Husqvarna 345, which I think I'll convert to a 346
(The obsession is now a fact..)

It always amazes me how a nicely done saw rehab makes you feel.....like you really accomplished something.

MattyO has reported that Loctite is a no go for sealing the bottom of the bearing cap to the shell, not meant for plastic, use dirco, yamabond or the like.
Loctite is ok for sealing the cylinder to the top of the bearing cap.
yup...
loctite 515/518 is good for metal/ metal or metal/rubber (the intake boot seals quite nicely with this btw) ...but is a nogo metal bearing cap to the plastic case... therefore ...1184 is the stuff

Some of the plastic crankcases have too large of gaps for 1194. Just trying to give fair warning, I learned the hard way. Dirko seals the first time, every time. Whatever Husqvarna used at the factory leaks over time.
Interesting. ....tx
