OK, so now where to buy a piston. I know there are a bunch of places but this is an old saw
so it may be less common than others. I have seen several online but with few specifications
given.
One place that interests me is called DLA Engine Parts. Their online pages are everywhere. Google
for "162SE piston" and there they are, right on top, with a "new aftermarket piston" at $22.37.
They give more details in terms of part numbers and fit to specific saws than anyone else and they
say specifically, "Piston Kit fit HUSQVARNA 61, 162, 162 SE, 162 SG (48mm) [#503517401]".
They also have a bearing and a gasket.
Only thing is they are in Athens, Greece. From the looks of it, they do a lot of business with all
sorts of engines. Prices low but will surely be made up with a shipping charge though that may
not even be so bad. They say, "Our Piston Kits are branded and come directly from the top-quality Manufacturers METEOR and EPISAN. I've never heard of Episan but have heard of Meteor.
Has anyone ever dealt with this outfit or know anything about it?
