What's on your bench?

[redline4]

The 359's were never really a problem. I never heard of the sealing issue until the 5 series came about. Others my have different opinions but I'd leave them be unless you pull them to do some port work. Then you should reseal.

No port work on this. Just a bone stock reseal.
The guy uses it to cut wood for his fire pit and thats it.

Ok Husky guys, did the dealer not give me enough parts, or what am I missing?


Or, do I trim the plastic clamp part off and use the metal clamp?
Or, does the plactic piece that the impulse hooks to need to be updated as well?

Trim the plastic clamp ears off and the metal clamp goes over it

Awesome! Thanks Kevin!

Also, forgot a thank you to @beaglebriar from earlier!

NP.... I've never tried installing one of those clamps after trimming the tabs. I prefer a 385/390 clamp but if you get it clipped it should work fine.

 

[redline4]

It did. I trimmed the tabs off, then filed 3 small ribs that are on it flat and the clamp fit like a champ.



Done for tonight. Might have time to finish it up tomorrow before my girls dance recital.

I go to one of them tomorrow for my Granddaughter!

Getting the pipe saws all ready to go.

Today’s on the bench includes a Dolmar 3410TH.
It’s got a broken handle mount and a few other things going on. Since the handle mount is a part of the cast plastic case, it’ll need a complete tear down and rebuild on a new case. I have a brand new case for it and a parts saw in a box, so hopefully we’ll have a runner when we’re done.

Finally getting at a little sumtin sumtin for me.

This is how the famous HDA 199 accelerator pump look:

Interested to see how you remove the ACC pump.

I assume you are doing the conversion to 87 specs. I find that they need 4 areas ground on:

The two stops
The choke plate
The area below-the choke plate will clear nozzle but rub there, blend the sharp edge.
The impulse port can use a chamfer, it doesn’t line up perfectly, so I use a chamfer by hand to V the outer portion.

This is what’s on my bench. 1988 Yamaha 70 hp outboard block.

Snapped 9 of 14 bolts out of the head. Stainless to aluminum electrolysis for 32 years.

Got 3 out with welding nuts to them and heating block after 2 weeks of every penetrating oil known to mankind.

Another block is on its way.

 

[MustangMike]

Al, do you use "Yeild"??? It is the best stuff I have ever used.

I do too. Almost seems necessary with the wonky impulse

 

[Cut4fun]

Easy $.

He was doing yard work today and it wouldnt start, so he dropped it off this morning.
I gave him a strato version loaner to use to do his limbing in the yard that I cant sell for $50 local with new carb and new oiler. Nice older guy that served too. So no problem helping him out.

His a P 2550 spring AV. Basically a green PP260 with hand guard instead of chain brake cover.

Carb kit, carb primer lines, duck bill for cap.

After a day of soaking the bolts in snake oil try a hand held impact, the one you hold with CCW tension and whack with a hammer.
They worked the best or broke the least bolts on japneeze bikes and saltwater outboards.
If nothing else you get to use a hammer on the offending unit.
