Oh and you'll get pretty good at R/R'ing that engine in a hurry..........since you have to do that when you make any repairs other than replacing the AF or spark plug on these damn things.  You might as well change ALL the lines and replace the fuel tank and oil tank duckbill valves (69451) while you have it out.........or you'll be pulling it apart again soon.  Like I said however..................you'll get to the point where it takes about 30 seconds to get the engine out and about a minute to put it back together...

I see your saw is like the evil XL2 and my early saw.  Has the snap ring clutch retainer (rather than the threaded crank and nut used on later saws in the series).  That little bastard is NOT fun to remove from the crank.  Crank seals are the same as what's used on the Poulan Micro series saws (2000 etc).  530019059 at your local Husky dealer (mine stocked 'em), or SKF 4913 at your bearing house.
