What's on your bench?

[Shane¹]

Got this 6800 up and running make some cuts with it then I will finish cleaning it up

 

[heimannm]

The 1-70 cleaned up nicely.





It will go into the display so I didn't want to put fuel in the tank but "runs on prime".

Next up is a 790.

[heimannm]

I finished up the 790 but neglected to take any photos other than this...bored 0.020 oversize.



I am now trying to get a few customer saws done and out of the way.





The 056 is done and ready to cut wood. The 042 needs a fuel cap & gasket; this one is evidently cracked and leaks badly. I also had to replace the fuel line in the 042...someone had been into it before.



I opted for Tygon and a grommet, just assuming OEM fuel lines for the 042 might be hard to locate.

HL suppy have both fuel and oil lines (the rubber one under the muffler) for the 042, I've just used one myself: https://www.hlsproparts.com/Stihl-042-048-fuel-line-p/h19048.htm

 

[heimannm]

Interestinig, if you search the HL site for 042 parts they actually show two different fuel line options.

Unfortunately, no fuel caps...

I've got a few NOS OEM 0000 350 0520 caps somewhere, if you can't find one. If that's the right part number?

 

[heimannm]

I'm still trying to track down the correct PN. I have another message indicating a different PN (1117 350 0500) but listings for that part do not reference the 042 (117-350-0500 Fits Models 036, 038, 044, 066, 045, 048, 056 & 064). I know the cap on the 056 I have here is quite different and does not fit the 042. The cap on the 028 I have here is also different.

The 042 cap I'm looking for.









I realize the cork gasket I have on it is not correct, but that's not where it is leaking.

Here's the problem.

Put a little super glue and baking soda on it and see if it will seal up

The ones that I have look like this. Apologies for the poor photo. It's a magnified thumbnail from the eBay auction that I won. I'll try to find them at the weekend.

 

[Duce]

Waiting to hear back, if he wants it repaired.

 

[thedude74]

Busted Chinese junk....aka broken farmertec ms361 clutch spring. Saw has maybe10-12 tanks through it??? Ordered a replacement.

 

[heimannm]

Next project, try to make one McCulloch 73 runner out of several parts saws.



The one on the left turns over with good compression but the starter and gearbox cover are trashed.



Clutch was collateral damage...



Bits were broken off the starter cover/housing.



Some major swapping will be in order.

I've been working a lot at people's houses on tractor's,saws,porch and a camper
My tactical Bostitch box with my Makita impact has seen some use this year

 

[heimannm]

790 is done and in the display.



73 is making progress.









Mark

 

[heimannm]

I had the 73 together and running today, discovered a crack in the gear case cover that was weeping oil so I took it back down to clean it up an try a JB Weld repair.



While the JB was curing I went back to this Poulan 5400 that I now have seals for thanks to Ted Loosi.

Found them! They are a newer design but I think they would fit.



I believe that the original part number was 1117 350 0500 and that 0000 350 0520 replaced it.

 

[Shane¹]

It's not a dolmar but it's on the bench tailgate. Was going together smooth until I ran out of hardware need some cylinder bolts and handle screws. Thanks to @jacob j. For sending the crank for this beast!
