Title: CS-590 Oiler adjuster needle assembly
Post by: rewmer on June 28, 2018, 09:45:40 pm
Greetings all, My first post on the forum. I hope all is well and that everyone's repairs are/have gone smoothly. I am in search of the oiler adjuster needle assembly from a 590 or 600. I picked up my first Echo used off of ebay and somehow the guy managed to lose the adjuster needle assy. He said it just "fell out". I haven't received the saw yet and it may likely need the worm gear assy as well, but I haven't found a needle assy anywhere. Does anyone know where I could get one or maybe someone has an old oil pump lying around that the assy could be scavenged from? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

I seen that one listed on bay. Looked like a good buy with easy fix. Time will tell.

I buy my echo parts from POE, he is also a member @Nathaniel Vansickle and has a board here.   His newest website  with #  https://www.performanceoutdoorequipment.com/

Hey Cut4fun - thanks for the direction. I watched that saw for a while and finally decided to just bite the bullet and pick it up. I'ts my first Echo and figured I couldn't really go wrong for $210. I will post an update once I get the saw and check it out.

The 590 parts seem a bit pricey as far as replaceable items like oilers, clutch drums etc.   Just from what I noted pricing them

I've noticed the same thing Cut4fun. Parts ain't cheap! I called around and it seems that the only way to get the needle adjuster is to buy the whole oil pump. Does anyone have an old pump for a CS-550, CS-590 or CS-600 that would be willing to sell me the needle adjuster from so I can get the pump back up and running? Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated!

I just priced parts for those efco CC 156 152 I posted about today.  Even more pricey then the echos.
