Title: Source for Partner 500 / 5000 crankshaft seals?
Post by: jeff.lary on September 21, 2015, 08:37:28 am
Hi guys I am still having issues with the 500 starting hard . It is either the Metering lever set too high now,... or maybe seals. I know they should present two different running problems( Carb = flooding / seals = revving) but I am thinking out loud here.
  If the lever is too high and it may well be well that's an easy fix. I set it with a Walbro tool so it should be ok but the saw started hard this last weekend maybe 10 pulls again? Then when I got her running I was waiting for it to warm up so I could check the adjustment made to the carb but when I picked the saw up and it tilted it immediately changed idle pitch. It stalled out really so when I re-started it I tried turning it left right and upside down and the running changed a little I think? Although I may be just imagining problems as I am maybe over thinking this some?

 Now about 2 weeks ago I bought a 5000 that needs seals I know that for sure that is why the guy sold it, and I was going to do them this winter,.. most likely I still will.  I was thinking I should get 2 sets of seals while I am at it . The last time I bought seals I got them from my old partner dealer. I was doing bearings too at that time but now I am looking at just seals .
 I am wondering if there is a source for seals elsewhere as well as maybe a seal part number? Just incase I need to look someplace else.
 One other thing I have a road kill screwdriver I found and I want to turn it into a homemade seal puller. Does anyone have a picture of one they have made so I can see what I need to make for a grove in the tip? Thanks for your help / advice Jeff

Should be common seal and bearings.  I cant remember off hand. But do remember they were common.

Go to Jacks small engines online. Run the poulan pro 325 for parts. They will usually be cheaper under poulan name.
