Old Dirty Feta Restores a Derelict 9000/9010

[beaglebriar]

Looks like a fairly close match on the color. You gonna powder the new clutch cover or leave it?

And, a big box of parts showed up today, which is what prompted the build thread.

I'll powder it eventually DJ. Gonna get this thing built first.

Yep. It was on sale and I needed one for the slabs I'm cutting up. Gotta make sure all the moisture is out before pouring epoxy.

You dirty bastage...

Yup.... Can't wait to see how she runs Danno.

WELL.... there's really no need for name calling. [emoji23]

Morning. Some updates.

I dug out the old flywheel (right) and compared it to the new one (left). It looks like the timing on the 9010 flywheel is retarded quite a bit from the 9000 was.




I'm curious about about advancing the timing on the 9010 setup. I went with 1/4" rotation at the fins and we'll see what that does.

Awesome build, these are a brute of a saw

Thanks Keith. I'm looking forward to running this bad boy.

Got the cylinder mounted. Looks pretty cool after media blasting.





Also got the recoil serviced and threw on a D-handle. It probably won't stay, but I didn't have a decent handle to put on at the moment.

That's a great looking saw. Mine won't be that nice, but it's certainly good enough for who it's for.

Rainy day updates. Not much going on for the day, so I'm packing and shipping saws.

Catching a few minutes here and there to make some progress on this build.

I just threw the top cover on to see what it looks like. Gotta get that sticker off. It's a tough SOB. Even acetone hasn't phased it yet.



Bing carb nestled in it's hole. This carb is of unknown status. It may work like a champ and it may fight me. We'll see.

I did err to the side of insurance and grabbed one of the NOS Bing 49's that @K Mueller posted up recently.

I also have a WJ115 off a 395 that I believe can be made to work on this saw.



Some AV action going on before tank install. These are listed as Shock Absorber in the newest IPL.

The site I use to order parts lists this as a Limiter, which makes more sense to me, as it only limits side to side travel.

I think gasoline would desolve that glue...

 

[AlfA01]

The tank handle on this thing was just fugly. I grabbed a decent used one out of the UK.

New fule line, tank vent and filter.




New fuel cap.

 

[AlfA01]

I'm going to have some leftover parts for this thing if anybody needs a tank handle, AM piston, 9000 coil/flywheel...

Also making another order from Germany soon, so let me know if you need something Dolmar and I'll price it for you.

 

[Adirondackstihl]

Do you have the tool for the oiler worm?

Your probably going to need a new clutch for the saw.

Mornin' Jeff. I just happen to have a new one here.
