Has anyone put together one together yet?

Start with long block or bare crankcase?

What AM parts not to use?

They don't have a 'kit' listed yet but I'm tempted to click on everything to fill my cart.[emoji848]

@Black Dog Chainsaw may be able to contribute.

Thing is, you can't get much more than a worn out pile of junk for less than $400 around River City. Every climber or tree service saves the carcasses [emoji90]for parts and won't turn loose.

@Lone Wolf has been testing parts and giving me feedback as they become available.
He runs them daily in his company and has rebuilt a ton of them.
Plastics pretty decent so far but the side handle is too long and makes for awkward and sometimes impossible fit.
Their carbs are craptacular.
He is not a fan of their crankcases or crankcase bearings.
Cylinders good, better with Cabers.
gaskets and seals are good
alot of parts they lack still till they can make a kit
I have 50 tanks on order to try out, I hope they are right

Do the aftermarket ones have an accelerator pump?

I don't think so. And they have two adjustable mixture screws without locks.

There are a few different ones at least 3 or more factories make them Definitive Dave should chime in on that.

 

[Mattyo]

Interesting. ..

Yup if you get a good batch they save a lot of time and money.

So if you have one that is good from the get go, it will stay good? I have one on a 200 lone wolf did up for me and it runs mint!! Not that he would ever turn out something that didn't!

No way can anyone guarantee a carb will stay good! These things are known to drive you nuts. The ethanol is a huge part of the problem.

With a little bit of work you can usually find a place that sells non-ethanol fuel. My nearest one is about 20 miles from me but I buy gas there...

Browsing the Huztl website, I see about the only parts lacking is the throttle & choke control links.

I'm disappointed they don't offer a 'kit'.

i read some where someone had been talking to an aftermarket company and they were supposed to be coming out with one in the near future.
