WANTED Stihl 461 cylinder needed

[Frankavich84]

As the subject indicates. I need a cylinder for a 461. Clean please or just transfers is fine. I have a good piston but someone really messed up this spark plug hole and then tried to fix it to only make it worse. Otherwise it is a really clean saw. I’d hate to put it to parts when it is only missing a cylinder to be 100% oem.

How bad is the spark plug hole? Could something like this fix it?

That’s what the tried. I put one in late last night and it seemed to hold. Just not super confident on them.

Can you post a pic up? And maybe @srcarr52 might be able to chime in on the fix. He has the smarts and stuff, and he is in your state.

It doesn't matter how bad the threads are messed up, I have to enlarge the hole to around 1" at the top and 5/8" at the camber to be able to get the tig torch in to weld it shut.

So does that mean finding a new or used one would be the best option then?

No, I'm sure I could fix the plug threads by welding and redrilling/tapping the hole if needed.

I've seen your work, you could weld a dick on a snow man.
For a second their I thought that would be a nla jug option.

I ended up getting the fix a thread to work but time will tell. Should have just sent to you.
