huztl ms360 muffler fitment issue

[Mattyo]

Sure... sounds like a good idea....PM me

I'm gonna have ya send it to the eventual owner of the saw

The brass ferrule on the left is what you're looking for. Is the spring stiffener inside the hose

 

[Mattyo]

can't find the brass stiffener in the IPL... just gotta cut the hose flush and leave it for now

 

[Mattyo]

neither are there, both the impulse line and this line are identical

 

[BuckthornBonnie]

Was that hose harder plastic or just fuel line? Reason I ask is that oem is a harder line that's tricky to install but won't collapse due to heat.
My solution recently is using a 1/8"spring inside the fuel line to keep things flowing.

 

[BuckthornBonnie]

Ok. Did it come w a spring?

 

[BuckthornBonnie]

Gasket, spacer that you need, junk that will burn (am gasket).

Thickness

 

[BuckthornBonnie]

8mm ish. Made by mtnwkr... you'll need two fresh gaskets on either side per 064 manual.

I doubt it will oil without the brass piece in there. It wedges the outlet end of the hose against the case. Without it, most of the oil will run back down inside the pump/clutch area

Matty if you're in a pinch and can't get the brass insert you can use the sleeve insert from a 1/4" air line compression fitting. Most good hardware stores should have them. If not try a truck shop.

Agreed. I've used just regular fuel line and the brass nipple, but never just the line.
I have an extra spring i can send with the spacer. I can't find any extra brass pieces in my stash, tho.

 

[Mattyo]

No worries guys.... could use that spacer. ...I'll get the oil line from the dealer. Not in a pinch. ...this saw was the giveaway saw from my youtube channel. Just trying to get it close before I ship it out

She fires

This was my least favorite build so far....ugh

Oddly enough I love building 036s. Of course they've been mostly oem with little issues.

 

[Mattyo]

I can see how it'd be ok if everything fit... i just dunno sometimes. some of it seems so.... wonky

 

[BuckthornBonnie]

Few odd things admittedly--
Carb removal may need throttle linkage entirely removed
Oil line
Pto bearing install (needs more heat for me vs. other models... no idea why)
Questionable impulse system
Tiny flywheel side seal

Other than that--- damn good saws

 

[Mattyo]

Ah, ok, carb install needs removal of that stupid throttle linkage cover... hated that. once I got good at it...might be fine.

oil line from oiler to bar COULD be awesome...because its a nifty separate line... but the kit was imcomplete so I got frustrated

pto bearing ... would love to do this cold and see what happens ... the bearing in there was already installed...albeit not quite far enough towards the clutch side... so I needed a punch to move it a tad.

impulse system is identically bad like the 200t. some dumb reason there is no barb at the tank end.... ugh.... a SLIGHT bulge would help!

and yes, tiny flywheel seal, but not as small as 044....

Matt, 034s had a muffler spacer, about an 1/8" thick with gaskets on each side. Also, IMO, the oiler kit is a must. One of my least favorite things on these models.

 

[huskihl]

I've only done the oiler hose a few times. 034, 036, and 084. Sucked each time

 

[Mattyo]

thanks guys

gonna tune the saw tomorrow
