The next Stihl rebuild

[ttyR2]

The 036 Pro I won on ebay finally arrived today. It was listed as needing a new piston and cylinder. A quick check through the exhaust port shows a chewed up piston. I haven't had time to pull the cylinder yet.

I'm looking forward to rebuilding another saw. Once it's done, I'll be 2/3's of the way to having my three saw plan complete.

Couple more photo's. Nothing much to look at, just needs a good cleaning.

Does the 036 benefit from a muffler mod much? There's one hole in the side of the muffler. Should I just add one more of the same size?

Does anyone know if a MS361 cylinder will fit a 036 pro. If so I have one in nice shape.

No.

A 034 w/piston will fit but smaller bore.

A 034S/036/036pro/MS360 will fit. Might have to add a spacer for Muff with 034/034S

Looks like it was running rich, if you are licky might be carbon scoring and the cyl will clean up.

Won't know to you open it up and start removing the aluminum transfer.

Post some more pics then.
