024 Super Piston, cylinder, and chain
« on: May 28, 2013, 01:17:23 pm »
I have a 024S that needs a piston and cylinder. I think I am down to 3 options.

1.Meteor 44mm Kit

2.Hyway 44.7mm Kit

3.Used MS260 44.7mm cylinder, which seem to be hard to find at a fair price and use a Meteor piston.

What would be the best way for me to go?

I also need a chain for this saw. I am going to be using this saw for small stuff, like limbing.

I wouldnt get so hung up on the 44.7mm oem v/s 44mm oem.  I found a used like new 44mm set on the last 026 I did and you wont notice a difference.  Your 024 super should be 44mm anyways.

Speaking of which I just send one out today to a very happy owner .All it was was a funky carb and a 6 dollar fix plus a case of beer for the mechanic --me .

Would you believe the dealer told him the freakin saw was cooked ,Why that thing has a cleaner  P and C than the one I own .

Personally on that piston deal just stay with OEM size .An RCH more won't get you that much more .

They are a neat little saw but they aren't oak slayers .--oak limb slayers . ;D

What are you running?  DL gage etc?
