Chainsaw Repair

They run pretty good the way they are. Mine is a early one. I removed the 20" X regular 3/8" bar and put a 16" X regular 3/8" bar on it. I also removed the catalytic muffler and replaced it with a 5100 muffler. You might not notice it was changed unless mighty familiar with 5105's.

Stumpy did one last fall. He used the stock piston. Marked his skirt limits on the cylinder

hmm, going to have to look for his post on it. missed that one "over there".
thanks for the starting point!

A Husky 45mm 51 piston works in 510-5100-5105.  Cut windows and trim skirts. 

Shep

i have to get rid of this tooth in my head first. started to ache yesterday morning but now it's at full blown scream
i can't remember if that was the piston or not. can't remember where i heard what i seen
can't even think straight right now. hydromorphone kicking in but no relief.
bluh bluh bluh bluh
stupid tooth aches.
i think it might have been ehp that was putting a different piston in the 5100/5's
does he post here?

 :)lost a chunk from between 2 teeth a couple days ago while flossing. felt something moving around in there the floss couldn't get rid of so i broke out the water pik. blew a piece out half the size of a 3 year olds finger nail. went in to the emergency dentist (no pain at that time), she says it's infected and i need to wait until that clears up with antibiotics. say i'll need the hydromorphin when the tooth starts to dry out. boy was she right. it's kicking in good now, i can still feel it, but it's so far down there it feels like heaven right now.
i find it funny how a tooth ache needs to make my ass cheek feel like it was ripped off i swear, my whole left side hurts like i have bad teeth all over.

thanks shep! i did see he was posting on here. just need all the guidance on this one. if there is any benefit to it in a work saw.
