Remington Chainsaws(including Mall chainsaws)

[crane]

Brad,

The PL-5 bearings(IPL # 22967) cross over to Koyo NRBBH108
The PL-55 bearings(IPL # 65121), I do not have a cross for.
Both the 5 & 55 take the same seals(IPL # 65194) crosses to SKF 6120

Best to pull the bearing from the clutch case, and take it to a local bearing supplier. They will measure and match it for you. The bearings(new), for the PL-5, were $5 and the seals were $4.

Hope this helps

You could try this company. I have not bought anything from them but the might be able to help you.

. F.N.shappard Belt Co at 1800-733-5773 ,ask for Customer Service.

I got an answer...........there is no stock belt in those dimensions , BUT, they can have a lot made. The minimun quantity would be 25 belts. Guess I pose the question, Is anyone interested in a new belt for an OMG Mall saw? I do not have an OMG, but might have a lead on one without a belt. Just going to throw this out there and see if there was any interest. I should break down a couple of my Homelites(20MCS, 26LCS), and measure those belts. What are the odds that they are the same.

I can send you one if you like. I've junked out more than a few Remys.

And, the p.t.o. side cover gets just the large 'O' ring and not a gasket.

Oh. Ok...i saw that big o ring. Ok. Well i just need a seal and 2 bearings which i could find at a local bearing shop. Not sure whats around me tho... what about the round washer on the pto side that the bearing rides against? I think its called a race?

PL-5 manual oiler troubles: Your opinion wanted.

I think the check valve at the bar mount is stuck. The pump won't draw oil into the cavity. If I fill it with oil and then push in the plunger I can get it to squirt once. But subsiquent pumps produce nothing. That tells me the pump is sucking back from the bar mount.

Am I on the right track?

I'm using 30w oil thinned 4:1 with kerosene. And, new 'O' ring.

 

[67L36Driver]

Hah! He healed himself.

I hand oiled the bar/chain with my squirt gun and fired it up on four pulls. Cut part of a cookie and opened the H jet another 1/2 turn. Runs good. Brought him back in to remove bar, drain fluids and store him for parts or fix (much) later. Got the bar off and just for giggles pushed on the oiler.

Hee peed on my new jeans.

I guess all the WD40 and carb. cleaner I squirted in there plus the vibrations of operating had a positive effect.

We be smilin'.

Can I interest anyone in a decent looking SL9 complete PHO with a scored piston. It runs until it gets hot. Parts guy at the shop bought it new 30 yrs ago. It "quit" on him recently when the piston scored, so he grabbed a newer saw from the shop. I really have no use for it, but CANNOT just toss it. Price is actual shipping from 30179, you chose the method. I can snap a few pics tomorrow. Fire up a convo if interested.

I had exactly the same thing happen on a PL-4A. I monkeyed with it for a bit. 1 pump then nothing!??? Let it sit over night then bingo, all was good. I have no explanation.

Some months ago I sold a John Deere 18 to a farmer near here. It was a fair runner so he cleaned it good and painted it.



Today he was at a toy show at the local N.G. armory and found a John Deere 17 to go with it.



Got it home primed and started right up. Cut some wood to boot.

 

[67L36Driver]

A first for me:

Got a John Deere 15 off evilbay today. It must have been run exclusively with outboard motor oil as the the exhaust port was piled nearly shut with carbon.

 

[Brad2185]

This is what I found when I took apart the pl-55a and noticed the missing race washer on the crank

Paint looks great for a Remington. On my MW/Remington the orange paint flakes off if there's a slight breeze.

Looks like someone got a nice deal if the p&c are good.

A W.T.H. purchase on evilbay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/251425100332?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Got here today. Mighty Mite and SL-9 type sprockets.

I plan to just pass 'em out like party favors. So, if anyone wants something just shout.

Carl.

Picked up a Bantam type spur/drum. Has a Herr (?) number on it A2-408. Is that .404, 7/16" or maybe even 1/2"?

Edit: Just wrapped some 7/16 around the teeth and it fit perfect.

We have a NOS Bamam sprocket for 18 USD and we be smilin'.

I have a tub full of Herr spur sprockets, gave away quite a few here at AS, but that part # doesn't jump out at me. I did most of the Herr research at Manufactoring Supply Company, they had?? have?? a great database for Herr sprockets.



I hope that I didn't just waste $18.99. I asked the seller if the coil listed as used worked/had spark, he responded that the coil is actually NOS, so I jumped on it.
