Skirt broke and she ate it. I say throw a piston, new bearings in it and see what it does.......

I know $250 million dollar C-17 avionics and flight controls like it’s the back of my hand...it’s a very complicated deal...but I don’t know saws like you folks know. Just one of those things where I wish I was a little smarter than the average idiot!

If nothing else put some sand paper on top of the old piston and clean up the squish band a bit. You can work it back + forth with a stick (I use 2 of the large paint stirrers).

Carry on soldier. We have no concerns about your intelligence. We'd rather you know your job!
Thanks for your service!

That was the plan. I need to pull a couple of the chunks out first. Surprisingly the rest of the cylinder is in really good shape.

NIB 665. Beats working on a crusty ole work saw that looks like it's been used for trenching. Thanks Greg ;-)

Been getting calls from the UK

. Guy tracked me down by calling a old poulan dealer I have dealt with here in the states. Looks like I maybe sending the NOS 475 topend to help him repair a guys partner 7700 with the air injection. Figured he could just leave the tube off.

Got a box in the mail today from OO
Looks like a 661 rebuild in my near future...

Thanks @Definitive Dave

Swapped the bearings in the FW side...
Warmed the case up till the bearing retainers started to melt, tapped the case to make it fall out waited a minute or two to let the case cool a bit and dropped the new bearing in. Then lightly blew compressed air through the bearing while spinning the inside race with a finger to insure no heat getting into the new bearing retainers.
Warmed up PTO half and tapped lightly to knock it out.
That's as far as I got this evening, didn't have much time..
661 btw...
