The problem with these newer vents is they don’t let pressure out, only in .... I’m gonna fix that on this 562

 

[dustinwilt68]

I understand the echo vent works much good in them and it's way cheaper

 

[beaglebriar]

It's easy to bugger the lip. The seal tool helps to get it in straight and to depth

I need one of those seal tools...

Isn't going to leak gas if it's letting pressure out?

I gut the 3 valve pieces and put back the mesh plug. The vent is now like any old pre epa saw tank vent. They weep when filled up, but when running zero leaks. No more pressure spewing out when cap is opened. No need to buy the echo vent either.

Might be good for a couple hundred RPM on the cut too.
Dolmarboy. LOL

I used a socket, worked! But I never buy just one set of seals, if I muck one up, I just pull it and install another.

Oh, and I use Vaseline on the rubber part.

I’ve never looked on a 562, is that vent pushed into the tank housing?

 

[dustinwilt68]

Yes it is, I use electronic grease on all rubber parts

Yes sir, just sprayed pb blaster on it and a good set of needle nose pliers carefully yank it out. I pushed the guts out with a wire through the small hole.

Be sure to let me know how it works.

I have an echo one here too but I think I’d have to run a line into the carb area then.

Will do. The way the area behind the vent is setup on the 562 it looked like it would be hard to run a line in there and attach it to a echo vent when I was studying it. Husky revised this tank vent a few times before I believe. Early 562 had the line to carb box attached to the intake manifold from vent, later ones they got rid of the vent line and just left the vent there. Probably to flow better and it’s also a simpler setup is my guess why they did that.

Mine appears to be an early model.

What year is it? Mines a 2016 has el48 and vent with no hose. They already have a el48 replacement on the newest ones believe it or not. Lol. At least it’s continual improvement that interchanges with older saws I think.

2012 w/el44. Supposedly had an update in 2014 but I’ve never checked it. It runs nicely so I’m not messing with updates. It doesn’t seem to have any of the hot start or bog issues. I’ve cut cooling holes in the top cover and added an mm.

I’d like to play with some dynamat extreme (or whichever one helps with heat) and try to keep temps down. I was talking with a guy who claims it reduced heat by a quite a bit. I like how on that new 572 they have that white composite as a barrier to reduce heat. I’m wondering how far you could take the concept?

Whadda you think about that pitting there eh boys?
