HELP! Husky ID

+1 on the 61 conclusion.

I think you have a mix and match of parts there, by the numbers that is a 268 non XP Gilardoni cylinder, so 50MM open port. Top cover is late 61, air filter and elbow should be matching as well, as the 268 filter doesn't fit under that cover.

I just checked my 266/268 hybrid and the serial matched exactly. Definitely an open port 268 top end.

Edit: Not a closed port, my bad.

I'd be very curious to see your cylinder. His is definitely an open port by the shape of the casting of the ports, and that cylinder number should be open port. The 268 cylinder has transfers shaped very much like a 42 or 246.


There are AM jugs floating around out there with both the Gilardoni and Mahle numbers on them, but no manufacturer id.

I’ll take a picture later, there’s a stamp up top. You’re right, I know it’s a non-xp 268, I got my open and closed port mixed up.

Cool that you guys are figuring this out. I knew I didn’t know much about the series but I saw the 50 and thought it looked like an open port.
Wasn’t certain if the 268 had the port in the air filter cover or if that was just in the 272

I know exactly what it is. It is a saw that needs a home

All 3 versions of the 268(XP, non and Special) run the same cover as the 272. Same part, different stickers.

If I pop the jug off will that get a bit closer to an ID

My cylinder has c16A stamped in the top near the spark plug with what appears to be a $ with two lines. Please s

Just pop the muffler off and stick a McDonald's straw in the exhaust port to the other side of the cylinder, then gently roll the engine over so as to mark the straw with the edge of the port. Take it out and measure it to see the diameter of the bore in mm's.

Well I am sure Mickey D's works for some but I tend to be a bit more precise. I popped the jug off tonight and it is a good thing I did as the lower right portion of the skirt on the intake side is gone. The bore at the base is 1.9625. I did not bother to measure the taper as that would be irrelevant. Darn thing was still pulling 175PSI

Straw trick is good for everybody
Congratulations, you have a 50mm cylinder as 1.9625" = 49.84mm.
Being that it's an open port Kolben schmitt(KS, that $ thingy) that should make it a regular 268 or a non XP if you rather.
These were well made and pull good for their size.

Old post I know, I know.

Nice Frankensaw.

Did it get fixed...the broken skirt?
