Re: Husqvarna 266 pistons

The early 266 was an open port and had a full circle non windowed piston like the 61. Then with the closed port cylinder came out on the late 266SE and the 266XP that used the full skirt windowed piston like shown before (similar to the 181 and 2100 thin ring). In the 268XP (same bore as 266) and 272XP (+2mm) they went to the slab sided semi windowed piston we are all used to in modern saws. 

If I were picking up a new piston for a 266 I'd probably use a piston for a 268, I think Meteor makes a nice one.
