What's on your bench?

Kid up road texted me that his 562 died in the cut and now won’t start.
It wouldn’t start for me either.
Checking spark I found the plug very loose and since it was finger tight I pulled it the rest of the way.
Hope the rest of it shot right into the muffler.
Compression does seem a little low though.

Getting there not much left to do now already made a chain up RS .404 .063

070 or 090?

 

[rogue60]

070 or 090?

Factory 090AV
That's how Stihl made the cases they will take 070 or 090 cylinders must just be for ease of manufacturing between the models.
The 090 G has an 070 cylinder on it from factory but same thing a 090 cylinder will bolt straight on.

Made in Japan, NGK?

I exclusively use those, swap out any other plugs that I find in saws I purchase.

Haven't messed with saw stuff much lately, but I had a Makita 4301 and a Dolmar PS-351 on my bench.
Both were in pieces and and both missing parts. The teal saw ended up as a donor for now, and the Dolmar ended up as a PS-351 simply because I didn’t have one in my little collection yet. Plenty of PS-421’s here, so figured why not.
It can use a new clutch cover and a new recoil cover, as they’re both cracked, but they’ll work for now.
The teal saw will get built up one day too, but I need a few parts before I can do that.
Removed the cat out of the muffler while I was at it. Two holes drilled at the spot welds makes it pop right out.

Ms201,394,395, see if I can make them run correctly.

That’s a clean 394!

Yes, it looks to be low hour saw. Someone started to straight gas or bad mix that saw. Vacuum checked case and held steady. 395 had a hard life, but will clean up nicely. Parts are ordered for saws, now just waiting.

Started tearing down this ms362 this morning. The saw is getting ported along with a new clutch side crankcase half.

This old beast. 1963-64 Homelite Super Wiz. Traded my 051 for it yesterday. Has great compression and ignition. Waiting on friction washers and pawls for the recoil as well as a carb kit and fuel outlet gasket. Popped on brake cleaner. Fuel system overhaul and cleaning next along with repairing the recoil and replacing the rope.

I guess if there’s a good thing here, it looks like a big part of the ground strap is still on top of the piston

When your punk azz byach kid brother decides to do a 100yd double tap on your 7/16 mild steel pistol target with a AR...... You do what you have to do.






Not condoning welding targets. My own risk for my own range. The weld is going to be much harder than the rest of the plate. In a effort to soften it some I will hit it with the torch a few times to help relieve it some.

I have had to do this many times….

I'm just happy he heard me yelling to stop. Otherwise it would have turned into a full mag dump....... That would have sucked.
