MS 362 replacement engine advise

[Laurence sls]

Hi Guys, 

 

Just a quick one,

 

Got a ms362 in the workshop with a ceased engine, with a scored bore and piston.

 

I'm going to put a new pot piston change ect.  What do you guys use, is it always Stihl parts? Or is there any pattern part suppliers you would suggest using that maybe gives you a better power out put for example.  I've heard of guys in the US using aftermarket stuff on there hot saws

 

 

Cheers

You may only need a piston depending on how damaged your cylinder is.....they a pretty tough. Have a read on the what's on my bench today...alot on there about cleaning up cylinder.

You will need to find the cause of the sieze so it doesn't happen again!
