Does anyone have any of the intake manifold gasket material from a 3700/ Craftsman 3.7? I have one on my bench and it disintegrated.
I couldn’t find it on eBay. Not the actual gasket… the thick material that fits around the intake flange.
That is the ebay guy who screwed me over on that 064 cylinder and then flipped it again on ebay. Another OPE member bought the same damn cylinder. I should have not returned it and sent it as scrap to an overseas factory.

Many, yes. There’s no guarantee on a perfect fit for different brands. I just used Archer presets and links to spin up two Blount (possibly Oregon) .325 chains from a leftover roll.
One has to closely inspect and “feel” if the presets are right.
I don’t have a lot of time on Archer presets in...
Like Shaun and others, you are also a gift to the saw community.
I’ve spun up dozens of chains from junk that was on its way to the scrap bin. I wouldn’t want to sell them (not always sold on longevity and usually have oddball cutters) but I definitely use the heck out of them myself.
I’ve seen this in other 1122s, yep. Those saws are typically pushed hard in big wood and have a ton of bf on the ground before they go.
It’s amazing how well a mag case (with or without a steel insert) can hold up in the conditions a saw can see in its lifetime.
I’ll defer. New 460 cranks are not a slip fit on new bearings. I’d love to chat with a Stihl engineer about those tolerances and why so many 76.5cc 1128s seem to be loose there.
JacobJ and others can chime in.
The one “loose” crank I’ve used was still tight cold-to-cold in the bearing. It...
Funny you should ask this. I’ve seen several 046/460 cranks that were spun. However, new or “low hour” cranks have not been slip fit for me. I just tried another in my shop and it’s an interference fit that requires heat (like most Stihl). Some Dolmar shafts were loose and may have used...
I just had a crank failure in a low hour rebuild. Built it up from some rough parts… must have missed the big end having pitting or something. Stopped and locked while running.
So, yah- I’m looking for an 1125 crankshaft. I have cash or parts to trade (026 handles, 1121 new style NOS air...
No problem… glad it worked out for ya. Post any questions ya got here. JacobJ, Mastermind, doc, and many others have a ton of knowledge. I’ve built up five or six of this series and like ‘em a lot. Good luck!!
See the fw stub that protrudes from the fw body? That rides in the recess and gets close to that seal. It should clear it and not touch, or else that seal will eventually fail and you’ll leak air.
Did you install seals and bearings? There’s a chance that you can see the original seal line on...
The FW seal needs to be set deeper on 064s. If I don’t have my driver, I use the FW to carefully tap the seal in. Then pull fw (it could be stuck back on shaft) and carefully tap the seal just a whisker more with the appropriate socket. Not too deep, not too shallow. It goes in a bit more than...
