The Husky 42/42 special/242/246 thread

This is why I thought it is leaking, I see now it is from 2021, and they probably sell a better product now.

Interestingly, if Duke has not received bearings that follow the specifications of the original bearing, there is a good reason not to buy the bearing from him.

Hi, thank you for the clarification around the PTO bearing. I did actually already split the case and put it together again with SKF 6201/C3 on both sides, I also purchases OEM oil seals, when I discovered that something was wrong. I will probably order the proposed bearing from Duke, I cannot give up now. I also need a new piston, do you have any recomandations? The cylinder is a Gilardoni.

I installed a piston with windows / It's a pity that you didn't read the previous posts, there are not too many of them

I will look again, thank you.

Aftermarket 242 piston is the only one available that I know of.
Don't buy the Meteor as the crown is 0.8mm too low on it.

Thank you. I probably would have done that if you didn't tip me.

I didn't measure this new piston with windows, which is a pity

I was amazed that it worked at all after such changes / the crankshaft was corroded on every possible bearing
