I recently built a 288, and I discovered that the original carb was pulling air through the throttle shaft when it wouldn't idle down. I purchased a new OEM carb expecting a Tillotson, but when it arrived, to my surprise it was a Walbro (Made in Japan). Looks very similar to the Tillotson...

Good looking saw! I use the Husky Orange Rust-Oleum as well, and have had great results. Hard to beat for the price. Do you use any clear coat?

I have a Husky 435 that is on the verge of driving me nuts. First it was a transfer cover leak, so I disassembled the saw and fixed that. Then I found a leak between the carb and intake that was causing some erratic running. So I ordered a new inlet pipe and insulation wall assembly thinking...

Wow, that looks great! I'll be taking note of that acetone tip as well. It really cleaned that discoloration up nicely. What product did you use to build up that pocket with?

Sounds much better! I can see why you did that given the purpose of the engine going forward.

Top notch work with attention to detail as usual! Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly going on in that last set of pics you posted? Did the section of the case where the handle attaches rot out? On a side note, I sure am glad I didn't buy one of those metal piston stops when I started...

Tell me about it. From my experience it seems like family is quicker to screw you over than a "friend" most of the time. I think mostly because they know they can usually get away with it. Most people will put up with a lot to keep the peace, especially in the family.

Nice job, it runs great! What was causing it to lose spark?

Much appreciated!

If you do end up finding that part number, please let me know. I'm having a hard time finding one like that.

Thanks for the pics! This is actually the first one I have seen designed like that. Here is the one that I have been looking at https://www.ereplacementparts.com/flywheel-puller-p-757759.html I have done some looking around but can't seem to find any like yours for sale. I found a part listed as...

That's the kind of info I was looking for! Does it seem to work on a fairly wide range of saws? I'm hoping it will cover most of what my Stihl puller (the kind that threads into the flywheel itself) and pulley puller wont. I was leaning in the direction of the Echo to begin with. I just wanted...

I have been looking to purchase a flywheel puller that will have some versatility. The one I currently use is more of a pulley puller and sometimes there isn't enough clearance. Anyway, I have been looking at the Husky puller part# 502514901 and the Echo puller part# 91134. If anyone has used...

Excellent work!

I am unable to create threads yet in this forum. I have done some business over on the other site, but I am new around here. I am looking for a high top cover as well, preferably an orange one. If any of you fellas have one you would be willing to part with, please let me know. Thank you!
