Setting The Air Gap On Husky 185CD Flywheel/Coil

[Okie]

Okie, turn in your guru badge. The 185 NEVER had a primer bulb.

So sad the computer lied to me again. (about Husky's) and caused me to lose my gutu badge.

I will watch on this site and pass the torch.


This is where I received the error info. (now I know how Donald feels about fake info.

Heads up: Surmising can cause you to lose your guru badge also.

Sure is a nice wide muley in your pic.

If you like wide here is a 30 inch. Look at the neck on that baby!

Ask @Raybenson if there is a shop/service manual, and follow along...

Just a hint of info about your saw.

Seen a 185 on flea bay for like $350

I went to the husky home page and looked under support, download manuals, etc. I had to enter chainsaw in the first attempt search link, then 185CD in the next search bar
and seen two different 185CD chainsaws and seen owners manuals and parts lists. one was like a 1977-01 and the other a 1976-02

Here is couple links to give you an idea of the owners manual and IPL downloads available. The owners manual has some good info about carb adj's, etc.
I seen a option available at the Chainsaw site to ASK A EXPERT.

I did not see anything about setting the magneto timing, but did see parts and part numbers.
Here is some of the links where I seen info.

I did not download the info, I selected to just read/view the info FIRST.

Thanks, I have both of those PDFs, they are very useful.

My saw is the earlier saw, it has no chainbrake, one reason I like to use it only on the mill, safer.

Cheers!

Thanks, I did look at it, but I'll give it a closer inspection when I put the saw back together.
Cheers!
