The "Broken046," and how it got MOFO'd

[BrokenSVT]

You'll need a new coil. I got them for $250 each. Lol

LMAO Al caught me off guard at work and got me with that one. I was all "oh no..." And he was all "dude, just *f-wording with you..."

Al's done chainsaw building for the day, so I'd like to take the opportunity to say for the millionth time:

Thank you to everyone who has contributed or otherwise participated in this project. You guys rock.

Yeah,
Been there.

He's almost 121212-like with his dry out-of-nowhere humor.

I like the dude.

That's a good coil. Those are hard to find. From what I've heard they have a better/more aggressive timing advance.

And are a nice fit for some 064s that can't easily accept the universal coil.

 

[BrokenSVT]

If it can be arranged, I'd really love to have both a MOFO and a Riffraff sticker on the 046? Is that possible? This saw is going to mean the world to me when it's finished.

I hate to be a sentimental putz about a chainsaw, but there's a lot of spirit in this one.

Nice idea. [emoji106]
It will look like a Nascar racecar. Lol

Going to be a "new" Saw. Very nice work Al.

It really is. I think the crank and connecting rod survived. Oh, and the case...but it's coated.

Al is doing amazing work. I'm thrilled.

Great job Al. This muffler is particularly awesome!

This is the way it should have been done the first time!! Can't wait to hear it fire up!!

Thanks for all the kind words fellas.

I've found the coils marked "IIDA" and/or "IIIDA" have run the best for me. I was suprised to see the markings after I cleaned all the crud off of it. The Ducati coil for the MS260 runs the best for the 026/260. The coil resin is blue on it.

As for the muff mod, I hope the PTO side wrapped deflector clears the brake handle. I actually have time to play with the saw today.

Should run later today.

BTW

The new piston is a Mahle. The piston on my builder case is as well.

I checked the compression height with my calipers, and the new piston is indeed .013 taller. Very odd. I've never had this issue using the piston on my builder case vs. a new OEM.

Very odd.

What is stock squish on these saws. Do you think they decided to tighten up factory squish? Are there different part numbers? Dallas?

Very good chance my builder piston is the issue.

I haven't had any trouble till now, but I do recall some head scratching @Canadian farm boy and I were having with a few hybrid builds .

Lesson re-learned.

Well, the saw is coming along beautifully. Now we're looking for one little bling piece to make it look nice.

Does anyone have a new/nice side badge for the recoil assembly? One of the "Stihl Made in Germany" ones?
