Think guys are misunderstanding what I said about double eared clips.

IF OEM I use the double eared. Have them in saws.

I will NOT use aftermarket double eared.

Fair enough 660, I'm sure you have much more working knowledge of this so I'll give them a tightening after it's back together and hot. I grabbed a set of long allen wrenches at HF today, and did get the regular, not ball ended ones. I read that post after going but thought the same thing when looking at them. Also order new piston this morning and it shipped before I got done running around!  ;D Hopefully next week I'll get it tore down and put back together.

Also, local Husqvarna shop didn't have a 372 intake clamp so had to get it as a kit for the 350 with new intake boot. Little more expensive but not much and will have a trustworthy intake.

You will find the new intake in the boot kit to look a little different in the area where the clamp goes.

You would have had to modify your existing boot to look almost like this to use the original boot with the 372 clamp.

Be careful attaching the carb to the boot that you don't strip the screws out.

If it will make life easier for me then guess it's a bonus I just got the update kit. Kevin, I just looked that thread over recently and a lot of good info in there. Figured with this being first saw I took the top end off I'd ask a little more and make sure I don't miss anything. Thanks again for the help.

I got the piston in the mail yesterday. Looks really well made, and it came with the double ear clips. Is it best to get a pair of new oem for them? I don't imagine I'd want to reuse the ones on the existing piston. It dawned on me today that I started tearing it down last week without making a cut yet. ::) I suppose I ought to put it back together while I only have the carb off and see how it goes before I rip it down and replace the piston. Looks like I get to out it back together tomorrow and try it out. Then rip it back apart! Did I mention I don't like the setup of the carb on this saw? Real pita IMO.

The usual procedure is to remove and attach the boot from the cylinder with the cylinder removed from the crankcase. Or at least raised up a little?

I don't have the boot off yet, I work every weekend, Friday afternoon to Sunday night, and haven't done anything since last week. I was not planning to replace the boot until I pull the cylinder off, but the carb was a pain to get out.

I put it back together and made a few cuts quick. Not a bad little runner, has 18" .325 setup with a spur sprocket.  (I'm guessing7 tooth?) Has a bumper link chain that had a decent edge so didn't bother to file, just made some cuts. Didn't time them to see what I get in gains. I'm going to take some pics as I go along and post after. Have any of you done yours without a base gasket? I checked the squish with some solder and its pretty close on clearance as it is. When I get it apart I'll test fit it without the ring and no gasket.
