Chainsaw Repair

Yeppers

Got another call out of the blue from a small engine shop in Iowa.  Guy working on 2083. Needed plastic worm winged gear and clutch springs.

Not given up anymore plastic worm gears to we get a source for 3d making them. Guy in the chainsaw repair group suppose to be making them for us to try and test out.

Clutch springs are just husky springs on the newer clutch and I informed him.

Also told him he might be able to use the metal worm gear on the later saws that had the plastic worm gear. Anyone did this?

I know the oilers are the same. Just wondering if room since different pto seal and bearing set up.

I meant to ask if anyone has used the earlier metal worm gear on 415 475 on the later saws with plastic worm gear?

Guy was selling 2 nos 54mm topend kits. 250 shipped a piece. 1 with 1 ring and 1 with 2 rings.

I just had to pass at that kind of prices.   

Someone must need 1 bad because the 1 ring set is sold now.

By looking at those 2 pistons they seem to have the same height from the wrist pin to the top of the piston, but the single ring has taller windows in it because it does not have that second ring.     I love that conversion of using a 660 piston by the way.   If I ever aquire another one of these saws that requires a new piston that is the route I will go.
