    This is an AM top end, isn’t it?

    Haven’t run my 064 in forever, and it’s the only 1122 saw I’ve ever run. Took it and my 10mm 044 to help a buddy yesterday, and I used the 044 til we got to the bigger part of the trunk. First cut with the 064 and I was like, “this thing’s a turd. Wtf?” Started looking at it tonight, took the...

    Thinking about downsizing...

    10mm 044 crank differences?

    Trying to install clutch-side seal on 10mm 044. Looks like the “fat” part of the crank tapers earlier? Had to drive the seal too far (based on how it looks). Looks like the seal lip isn’t seated correctly. Passed pressure test, but I’m skeptical. Anyone have any insight? In pics, the dirty saw...

    044 10mm cases and crank are worth?

    Bought what I thought might be a project. Probably a big one. Best I can tell it's a 10mm 044 (1128 series, 50mm piston and 10mm wrist pin... so has to be 044, right?). But it's literally two case halves, crank, plus aftermarket piston & cylinder (dang....). Crank bearings are shot...

    How to get this bearing race off crank

    You experts have any secrets to share? Quick heat the race w/ torch and whack w/ a cold chisel? Buy a $400 specialty tool? (Kinda hoping not this option...)

    Dumb chain question(s)

    So I’ve always been a Stihl chain guy, but I wanted to try one of these hooskies everyone’s always talking aboot. So I got myself some loctite, some extra screws, and a 288XP (without a chain on it). Problem is, I don’t speak Oregon chain lingo, and I can’t find a straightforward chart kinda...

    Case gasket material

    I need to make a NLA case gasket. Thickness is 0.02”. Anything I need to look out for/avoid when I go to my local parts store to buy sheets of gasket material? Thank you!

    372 $350

    I’ve never owned a Husky, but y’all rant & rave about 372’s. Other than the usual spotting Aftermarket, what should I be suspicious of on this one? Only 1 pic & the lister hasn’t texted me back.

    US importer of Chinese kit saws?

    Maybe a dumb question. Is there someone in the US who buys saw kits from Hutzl who sells those kits stateside? I’m thinking guys with eBay stores, etc who might add the whole kits to their orders. Seems like it should drastically reduce shipping costs. Here’s my thoughts... one of those 070...

    Variation in Squish?

    Working on an 028 Super. OEM everything and (to my knowledge) original. Marked "A" on cylinder and Piston. Measuring squish with no gasket and it has 10 thou variation between the intake and exhaust side, and .002 left to right (flywheel to clutch, along the pin). My question: is 10 thou...

    Surprise when pulled bearings

    046 rebuild... bearings felt just fine, but replacing them for good measure. Definitely glad I did. Check out what the flywheel side looks like! Definitely glad I'm replacing them. Don't think they had much time left!

    046 clutch side seal legit?

    Bought it off eBay. Not one of my usual sellers. The *flywheel* side seal came in a Stihl baggies and says Stihl on it. The Clutch side seal came in a small clear resealable baggie (not a big deal), but the part itself doesn't say Stihl on it. Did I pay OEM price for an AM seal? Pictures...

    Someone explain blowdown and performance

    I *think* I understand that blowdown is the time after TDC until the upper transfers open. (Is that right?) EDIT: No, dummy. What I don't understand is how that affects performance. Wouldn't the transfers opening early cause a loss in cylinder pressure? Somebody smarter than me please...

    SELLING 020 "professional" handles

    Would love to trade these 020 "professional" handles for an 020 top handle. (Just the handle--not a whole saw.) I just want a top handle, dang it. One is complete and looks to be the chain brake version, the other is missing the cover & trigger components (but can have those parts swapped from...
