The lesson I learned was, always order from the bottom shelf when the bar girls have kilts on.

Ok, grabbed a pic of my crank. No damage internally.

Did you break it? Or....did it just break under use?

It was my father's 2100. I believe it broke under use. It's been a few years.. or maybe a couple of decades.

These 261 have about the best filtration I've seen. And.....the filter was good. Nice soft rubber seal.

I should have said improperly fastened instead of faulty because that's what I was thinking. I was basing this private detective work on the grime and crud all over the crank itself.

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

I had to go out and get one of those new "taco" connecting rods that all the big rave is about.

 

[Deets066]

Anyone have any pics of the notorious solo cranks that went out?

Chainsaw Jim has the 'crescent crank' or 'half moon' crank.

Stihl MS 880 crankshaft it ran

Had a helluva time get clutch off to rebuild

We dont know what caused it to break

That's an understatement about getting the clutch off!

 

[PA Dan]

10mm 044...kinda have an idea what caused it. Got the case from another member and they got it from someone else and ....

Maybe it's just my simple mind, but any time I see a smoked lower rod bearing on a low hour saw, I can't help but call mix oil and ratio into question. In my mind, the lower rod bearing is probably the hardest working bearing in the engine and likely the first to fail if lube is compromised in some way either by quality or quantity

 

[smokey7]

I was thinking lack of oil too with the galling i see. The cage coming apart is something else. But then a bearing welds itself like that oil and heat are my first thoughts.

Husqvarna 359, clutch decided to go its own separate way(to the land of confusion).


Husqvarna 254xp, act of customers pure stupidity.
