Raffle 262 builds

Hey Dan... did work go okay for you today?

Just wrapping up...

 

[Derf]

The spiral washer would have to be stamped... machining those would be way too expensive...

Clutch washer... I am fairly certain I can get a batch made. We will have to determine costs first... and if this works out, figure on seeing them on one of the sites of our sponsors. (since I am not a sponsor, so I cannot directly say I will sell them to you)

We have a couple HAAS cnc machines. Give me a solid model and it'll happen.

I don't mind shipping a washer down to you, but I'm thinking there must be someone in the U.S. that can send you a washer a lot cheaper than I can from Canada.

Well, I imagine you could actually make money on these washers then.

Dan? You awake or did you work too hard today?

Or are you merely making a little suspense for us?

 

[XP_Slinger]

Question for you guys. Can I convert my 262 oil pump to clutch driven by just swapping pump assemblies and drum? Looks like it would work fine.

Yep, worked all day. Just sitting down to relax now.

Yes, the Oiler is the same, you need to pull the brass Oiler gear, and get the plastic Oiler gear and matching clutch drum.
I’ll get a pic

Yup. On Friday night... Time to chill brother. No tree work tomorrow. Maybe I'll tear into my 262 fuel issue since this thread is so active! I have an HDA 87 rebuild kit.

Yep, that’s the stuff I have. Figured it would work, thanks for confirming.

Hmm...quiet around here... must just be a good weekend to relax. Unfortunately, it is not a relaxing weekend for me, we're moving furniture and beds and crap around the house... some from the top floor to the basement, some from the basement to the garage, etc. Fun stuff.

Hope Dan isn't moving furniture...

 

[paragonbuilder]

Nope, not moving furniture and not relaxing. Worked another 12 hours.
Gonna cut some firewood tomorrow morning...

12 hours? On a Saturday?

Wow.

I remember when I used to work 60-75 hours a week. Did it for a few months. Was not healthy. I would get home so exhausted and tired, I basically shut down.

Great thread Dan, just catching up now.

I like the pics of the crank and piston at various points in the cycle. Shows a lot and makes one think.

The lower edges of the transfer tunnels in a 262 are quite deep, unlike the Stihl 036. Different angle, plus the crank weights cover them when the uppers open. I leave them alone on the 262 myself, too much too cut, and I doubt it adds anything.

FWIW, Randy did a thread on converting a 199 to fit a 262. Same bore as the coveted 87. I beleieve the 198 is a replacement for the 199 and is still available. May have an accelerator pump though, I’m not sure.

I have a few sets of 87 throttle and choke plates if you need them Danny Boy. I bought them to do the 120 to 87 conversion and never got around to it.

[CJ Brown]

Good stuff Custer. Which washer did you send - the spiral or the flat?

 

[cus_deluxe]

The flat clutch washer
