The clip for the boot ie a rectangular band with screw and captive nut, similar to the 372 but rectangular.

ok i'm gonna ponder on this one cause if i knacker this boot up i will guess its gonna be just as rare as hens teeth to replace.

Boot part no. 503611301, some available on the bay, no longer available from Husqvarna.

to pricey for me lol

The 625 was a solid saw, if it’s a tidy machine it’s well worth spending some money on it.

They are not that dear here €8.99 + €7.00 post. Postage is almost as much as the boot.

Had the 525 was good unit even when bottom of alloy tank sprung a leak(Bonded a sheet of alloy to it)

ok so stripped the 625 down a bit more and the boot clamp is the wire one as ive seen other videos with the same sprung wire one its not a great idea though.also one side crank seal is blowing so going to replace them both.now the carb boot should have a strengthener ring inside it which isn't there and no one on the planet has one can i replace the carb without this  or is it a must have or will something else fit.thats all i can think of at the minute thanks all

If the saw has the metal clip it will be the very early saw, the machine will not have had the ring in the inlet of the boot, this was added later to stop any chance of the boot collapsing in this area, I guess if you cannot acquire one then it will probably be ok. The drive side crank seal is housed in the pump housing, there will also be an o ring to seal the pump to the crankcase, and a seal for the pump outlet, be very careful fitting the crank seal as it is easy to catch the seal on the step of the crankshaft causing the spring to pop out.
