:bunny: I'm all ears, but the wallet says :shakehead:.

I found a 064 today that I'd love to buy. $275cdn. Needs bearings and seals. Comes with a new oem tank handle plus new bearings etc. It just needs to be torn down and reassembled with the new parts.


I wish I had an extra $275 bucks :(

Got this ol thing out today to do some trimmin. It's been sittin for well over a year with gas in it...because I'm lazy...I yanked about 12 times and it fired. However, it now won't idle. Runs fine wide open though so I got done what I needed to...so I've made an appointment for it to hit the bench.

A bit of a sad 064 is on the bench tonite.



Take a close look.

over revving is what I have been told causes this. I had 3- 460's with same issue. Here's a quote and pic from madsens1.com


Damage From Over-Speeding The Engine
pistonringland.JPG

The piston above has been damaged by over-speeding. Look at the piston material between the ring-lands. You can see a big chunk of it is missing and some has been "squished" thinner, creating a super-wide ring-land. Look at the top ring (bottom of photo). You can see the edge is rounded-over, a sure sign the rings were catching in the exhaust port. When this occurs, this sets off a high frequency vibration, eventually breaking the ring-land.

I got 394 on there right now. Might have 660 again converting to 650. I need to dig out 385 parts and start putting one of those together.
Just out of curiosity, why would you convert a 660 to a 650? I did just the oppy a while back for a guy. Still have the 650 tag if you need it.
