New Cylinder and Piston for TS350 Petrol Saw

<< < (3/4) > >>

awemawson:
Yes I have an ancient Stihl 023 chainsaw that I replaced the barrel and piston on a few years back - pretty well identical

appletree:
I have an old a Ts350 and 2 of the chains saws on which it is based the 08s. Keep threatening to covert 1 of the saws into a TS350 I have loads of dead TS350 front ends covers left over from our hire fleet.
There are lots of safer (chain brakes) saws available, lighter too.

Good work.

Doesn' that engine need high quality oil bigger than normal %? Here if you rent the saw (100€/day) they give you the labeled canister of gasoline to go with it. Rental comppany inform to use only that, because it seizes really quickly with normal two stroke oil/gasoline.

Had to rebuild some carbs long time ago....some diagraph/gasoline combos seem to work better than others. Remember changing the fuel line and the clunker in the tank.

After clening the carb and installing new membranes I would start with the basic adjustment for this carb (H = 1
L = 1 turn from closed).

Are the crankshaft seals still airtight? Leaks might show more now that your piston is new.

Any tips for checking the crankshaft seals Bob?
