Title: Help identifying Husqvarna chainsaw
Post by: Miller-Thinner2 on November 24, 2013, 11:52:56 am
Hi I have this Husqvarna chainsaw im not sure of the model. It has a 266xp starter cover and a black husqvarna top cover. The serial # tag is missing and I'd like to know what model the saw is for certain. I found a # on the cylinder 5034479. On the opposite side of the cylinder there is the word "GILARDONI 1" poor lighting in shop so the word may be wrong.
Does anyone know if this is a 266xp or what it could be?
Thanks in advance

Went ahead and moved to husky thread, being we know its a husky.

I had a 66 with Gilardoni cylinder and seen 268 with them too.  Maybe just a 266 recoil on another saw?  Seems those interchange a bit.


I meant the redneck racing video. Thats the one I like.

 Included a photo of the number from the under side of the top cover even though it could be off a lot of different model saws but may be a good clue lol The final pic is on the casing where the carb sits

I just searched the number off the flywheel and found an ebay ad for a flywheel

HUSQVARNA CHAINSAW FLYWHEEL #501 52 52 02 FOR MODELS 61,66 162,266
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUSQVARNA-CHAINSAW-FLYWHEEL-501-52-52-02-MODELS-61-66-162-266-/160994824172
so maybe this narrows down my search

As I said elsewhere it is a "frankensaw", that most likely is a 66 with a 266xp starter cover.  ;)

Did the 66 have closed transfer ports?  If not then that is a 266XP cylinder.

Just showing the pic of the 66 cylinder that I had in past.  These are all the pics I can find as this saw was sent to Finland if I recall right and cylinder never removed. Look like new inside still.
Sorry no pic of flywheel side like his pic was.

No it didn't - it had basically the same open port Gilardoni as the non-xp 268.

Are you sure that is a closed port cylinder, and how do you know? 

Maybe you looked at the wrong picture? ???

The outside of the transfer port bulges outward to make room for the transfer bridge.

Are you sure that there is no bulge on the open port Gilardoni?

That doesn't really make sense to me - but then I don't know it all.... ;D

If Spike60 turned up here, I'm sure he could clear this little "dispute" up in an instant....

Well, I just found an old picture I had saved (hard-copy only) of an open loop Gilardoni, and it surely has such bulges where the transfers are, just like the cylinder in question here.
That one was off a non-xp 268, but that one used the same cylinder as the 66.
