Stihl 064 Tribute Build

[chipper1]

Pretty sure there was a different brake on the wrap handle vs the standard handle on the 064 as well.
Cool yours seems to be the original.

The coil you have is the CDIC coil (1122 400 1303). As long as it has spark, you're in good shape (it is a rev-limited coil though).

This will be a great build! I did something similar recently for my uncle who passed.

Thanks alot for info.

Brake has serial number 1122 792 9100

That break handle (1122 792 9100) was used in the past. It was replaced by 1122 790 9103 (064, 064 W) from serial no. 1 44 673 876 on. That change was near the end of 1999. This break handle is mounted in a rubber bushing at the fan side and secured with an IS M5 x 40 x 25 spline screw.

Man that saw was worked hard and put away wet but that sucker will live to cut great again. Can't kill those old stihls.

Did these have limited coils originally or is that a later replacement?

The 064 had the rev-limited CDIC set-up at the same time when the "Red-Light" 066 was in the line-up. The problem was, the metal-flywheel 066s
were breaking cranks on the flywheel stub shaft due to the very heavy 066 metal flywheel and people hitting the chain brake routinely while the
saw was still spinning. The inertia from the heavy flywheel over time would damage the crank. The rev-limited set-up was designed to reduce that.
The 064 didn't have the problem as much due to the lighter flywheel.

The big problems with the CDIC coils are a high rate of failure and the ones that keep going suffer from "brown out," where they continue to
function but the rev-limit keeps getting lower and lower. I've seen a couple that would only allow the engine to max out at around 10.5k.

Thanks JJ, great info.

So today got a few hours and went on to clean...

talk to me about GOLD DIGGERS!
Never seen before such dirt and it's already cleaned before pics

[Evansaw]

Crank and rod are good though no play

Should I change the rod bearings? What a mess...

 

[Evansaw]

Meanwhile in Gotham City an hour later...

i know 99% of you guys would just throw it away and get new. But as said i ll have to try

there are a few scars laying around
Are they important I don't think so

 

[Evansaw]

Now this was the worst part so far
I know it is abused but is it possible after the paint that it could still hang on? How much the paint would affect it? Positive or Negative?
That's a cross road right here.

Keep looking keep thinking and looking again...
Can i save this case? I don't want to just put a new one without trying.
Would the preparation sanding damage it more before painting?

 

[Definitive Dave]

i would be looking for another case, that one just looks like mag rot and trouble
