I can see this isn't a very active thread as the last post here was about 1 1/2 yrs.ago.I'll make a post anyway in hopes of an answer.
.Does anyone know what aftermarket crank seals are used on the SL9 & SL10 saws?TIA!

Do you have a size Ed?

Ideal would be the pocket diameter and the crank diameter where the seal rides. Width would be good too.

No Tim I don't.I haven't pulled the seals out of the saw yet & it looks like a real biotch to do it too.

If you do get them out, let me know the size and I'll see if I can find a replacement.

This one just appeared one morning this week, no idea who or where it came from.





Looks like a challenge...

I know it’s old already but best place to go
After you get them out is a bearing supply store. Motion industries had pages and pages of metric and standard double and single lip oil seals.

I have never messed with a Remington saw but just had a 660 land on my work bench. I've got it running but what ratio should I be running in the fuel? 32:1?

 

[heimannm]

As long as you use a quality oil and have the saw tuned properly you can use whatever ratio you choose. The old 10:1, 16:1, 24:1 etc. were days when the oil quality was inconsistent at best and the only safe option was more oil.

With most modern oils 32:1 will probably not cause any ill effects but is by no means necessary. I run everything on the same 40:1 Saber mix including the two man (McC 7-55, 99) and 50's vintage saws.

A close cousin to the Remington branded saws.

Mohawk was a sub brand 0f Remington?

I have a Mohawk bolt gun. Slightly cheaper version of a Remington 600.

Hey Carl, good to hear from you again.

As I understand, Remington first produced the 600, then the 660, then went back to the 600 and adding the Mohawk name.

I have one in 6mm, don’t remember if it’s a Mohawk or a numbered one

I've got a few Remingtons that I've never done a thing with them PL 4 and PL 5 .They appear to mimic the Homelite xl 12 by design . The guy that had them,near Dayton Ohio must have had 200 saws .My only reason to look him up was to get a couple of donors for repairs for my neighbors Homelites his dad had .I came home with half a truck load all gifted .We did get the old Homelite running again though .

Sounds plausible here’s mine

 

[FergusonTO35]

The model 7 was basically a 600/660 with conventional styling. They go for big money if you can find one.

Super 754, what do you do with the bare wire coming out of the coil?

 

[heimannm]

I believe that bare wire should go to ground where it is equipped with points or the chip.

Had someone contact me this week with an SP105 that had been equipped with a chip that did not perform well, I suggested he switch the leads around and voila, the saw returned to peak performance.
