Title: 044 impulse and intake boot
Post by: ENTS on January 21, 2020, 07:46:10 pm
How in the world do you get those two back on their respective saw locations.  The intake boot is fairly easy but that impulse line and nipple are really hard to get at.  Any tricks here?

And while we're on it .... No special tools here.  Having to jury rig fittings and such (pressure/vac tests).  I've seen the screw method of pulling seals.  Not much meat to work with on those seals.  Any other way (except seal puller(remember, no special tools in house))?

Again, no special tools .... How to get the fly wheel off?

TIA  and hope all is well.

for the impulse line,remove the anti vibration mount screw and
push down on the rear handle which then opens up the space
for the line into case.After that,pull nipple into the carb box using
a drop or 2 of oil on the tip to facillitate the pull

Pres,

I was never able to get that impulse out of the carb box.  Wanted to since it looked easier to put back together.  All the AVs are loose so I'm able to jokey everything around but still can't get the impulse all the way on the brass nipple.  I'm afraid once saw is running that it will work it's way off.

My problem at this moment is seals.  Clutch side leaking big time.  I'm assuming the fly wheel side is the same.  Task for today is order seals and pull that fly wheel.

Have a great day and hope all is well.

When I first started doing redneck repairs I used a drywall screw.  But years back I made this for the tiny fly side 026 and been using it on everything since. = much easier

Oh I just did 2 066 impulse lines. I dont use oem molded lines. I use the same echo oem 3mmx6mm black lines for impulse lines. Only thing you hook it up on carb and not just slide into base.   Just the way I started doing them.
Havent tried this on a 44 yet. GL 
The 44 I did that got smashed I had pulled tank and done oem. So no help with info.

Thanks C4F      I'll be uncovering the fly wheel side today.  We'll see what transpires.

I have long straight and curved forceps to help with that and yes on recoil off.

Pulled the clutch side seal today.  Easy.  Now to that fly wheel side.  Gonna make one of those screw driver thingys and hope for the best.  That is a small area to work in.
