Stock probably be closer to 0.040.i just went out and measured a OE 372 I'm doing.with a OEM gasket was 0.041.so ya pull the gasket which ones I've measured (OEM) are 0.018-19 puts ya right at 0.020-22 no gasket.

You're probably right, first reading was .038. I think I'll run it this way first, just to see what I can get out of her. Then maybe go with a gasket delete. How much did you take off the transfers, .020?

 

[brad ruch]

I was trying to find a pic.no luck yet.basically if ya pull the cylinder off.lay a cylinder gasket on the cylinder and then on the cases.you will see how the lower transfer opening is smaller on the cylinder then the cases.i laid the gasket on the cylinder and market it.then grind them to that.ill try to find a pic.

I see. Pretty easy fix. Thanks alot Brad. I think I might do that at some point. Got to see if it runs first, and how well. There had to be some reason that it was taken down...

If you do open the lowers be mindful of the transfer cap screw that’s toward the intake side. The pic above is of my cylinder, I took a lot more out of the intake side of those transfers after that pic.

Thanks. Thats helpful.

Ok. Now the 372 xtorq handle doesnt work on this saw. The spacing between lower bolts is 2 1/2" approximately, too big for the x torq. What front handle do I have? This saw is getting to be a PIA. @brad ruch @Spike60

 

[trooney]

Was the 2171 front handle and the 2172 handle the same? Was the 2172 front handle the same thing as a 372 xtorq?

 

[jacob j.]

The 2172 and 372 x-Torq handles are different and not interchangeable (it's the mounting on PTO side of the tank that's different, as you have pictured). You can use a 2172 handle on a 2171, the main difference being the diameter of the tubing and the overall height of the handle.

2171 handle part #503 80 30-01 and is still available.

Thanks @jacob j. @brad ruch . 1 last question: does the 2171 handle have enough clearance for the xtorq cylinder and top cover? Or do I have to go 2172?

Can't you drill new holes in the handle to make it work?

 

[Ronie]

Disregard the post above, I just remembered that the part of the handle that mounts to the tank is longer on the Jonsered.

Probably could.lol

I think when you put the Husky handle on the Jred the handle is to short to hit the bottom screw hole.

 

[trooney]

Much too short. If it were the same size well heel yeah I'd drill a hole. But I remember someone saying that I needed a 2172 handle because it would allow clearance for the 372 xtorq cylinder. Thats why @brad ruch statement that I could use a 2171 handle has got me confused. They have different numbers according to the ipls.

 

[trooney]

F it. Ordered a 2172 handle. I hope this is all of it....what a chainsaw! I hope the mf runs when I get done ordering all this shat for it. If it dont I know somebody whos got a boat that will appreciate it...
