Help with a Husky 350

[Backtroller]

Sweet thanks Mattyo

Could I plug it with jb weld or something to eliminate the chances of it leaking at some point? Crimp the brass outlet closed?

Jb weld won't be eaten by gas correct?

 

[Mattyo]

I'd use the fuel line....that way you can use the carb for another saw if you want to.

Jb weld would probably work fine though.

Brand new OEM clip never even snapped on to the cover. I filled the case with mix to rinse it out and while turning it over, the clip snapped. Are Husqvarnas really this fragile? $10 a clip how many am I going to break using this saw? Or did I just get a weak one? Look how thin this plastic is and no metal in it either. Geez

 

[Mattyo]

No clips on my 350s

 

[Backtroller]

I noticed that too. And I even have a minty 350 cover. Figures

Stick a screw in a piece of fuel hose and slide it on.

Need a little help figuring out handle screws. There are 3 on the side (#1) and two (#6) on the bottom. I can't tell which (bottom or top) the longer screws go. I have many screws from 2 saws so I'm not sure just going by numbers. Since it's plastic I don't want to go through the tank

 

[Backtroller]

I got it. Short on the bottom. Measured the holes.

Thanks to @04ultra for all of the parts I started reassembly. Have to finish the clutch side and wait to test fire

gettin there.... getting there

Thanks, the new top cover, muffler, and recoil decal help. The case has a nice patina. It will not be a shelf queen.

My project in this series .... how??

Splines for the rim and rim are just gone. ???
No needle cage no clutch shoes or springs
WTF looks like I need drum and bearing
Sorry to derail

Metal fatigue? Wow is that ugly. How is the crank?

No problem with a derail.

 

[Tpagel]

The crank I think is ok but someone had it apart and f Ed it up.

Here's how it compares size wise Dolmar 5100s, 346, 026 top pic I was able to finish assembly today. I couldn't find a shade of orange that I liked and since none of the factory orange matches anyways, I used some hammertone gray I had at home for the clutch cover. I might respray orange
in spring since it's hard to get a nice finish when it's 5* outside and you don't want to stink up the house. A nice new Husqvarna sticker has been ordered for the cover.

That's a K041 mount I converted to K095 since I had it laying around. 18" .325 Stihl RM safety something. I'll be able to share chains with my 421

And to think it all started with a cheap 350

Looks great. Start it yet?

 

[Backtroller]

That 346 bar sure looks short. The 026 has an 18" too. The Dolmar has 3/8" 20"

 

[Backtroller]

Nope. Waiting for the adhesive to dry.

I title it, "project - got out of hand"

So much for cheap....I have a problem like 90% of the other guys here.
