Hi H A

sorry just looked at the whole photo

Yes Thats the one thanks

does it work on engines that are not stihl?

cheers

 

Can't see it would not work on other machines.

 

Lip seals are fairly standard, all you are doing is hooking into the seal and extracting it in a controlled manner.

 

In the States they just use "Dry Wall Screws" screw it into the seal and pull it out.

 

I think Spud has said he has one of these, he will know better.

 

I am more "dig out the old one" then take care fitting the new one, if you read the service books you will be surrounded by special tools.

 

Improvise, and make special tools works for me.

I have one of those pullers and it makes life easier but I got it for half the retail price:thumbup:

 

Other than that, the screw method of extracting or even using a pointed awl on MS200Ts works well!

 

Who is going to do your work Dave, sounds lile a little palace you are building for them:biggrin:

 

A selection of t bars, t wrenches, long reach sockets, T27 bits, M6, M5 allen is a must. Helicoil sets in M4, M5,M6 and a damn good set of tap and dies is a godsend, you already have the US cleaner in the bag, a decent bench vice, long nose pliers, side cuters, soldering kit, a fecking big G clamp is like gold dust......we all know why:thumbup:

 

Other than that, mallets, files, diamond files and blocks, a decent selection of containers for parts, screw drivers etc The list goes on forever.

 

TBH, if you are just doing your own kit, you probably don't need half of this kit, if you are going to run your own money making workshop, employing someone then you will.

 

Good luck, any questions, just ask

Hahaha, I should have one of those, but never bothered. Just use a selection of punches, awls and levers. Any method is OK as long as you do not damage either the crank surface or the much softer seal seat.

 

As said before, there are loads of special tools, but TBH very few are really needed as long as you are prepared to take just a little longer and a bit more care.
