What's on your bench today?

[spudulike]

gota link ?would be interested ,as you say might be a better option when little meat around hole,been using wurth timeserts,they crimp in the hole using the last couple of threads so cant wind out.

 

They are called KeySert:thumbup:

Out of curiosity what do you use as an outlet on your porting jobs spud?

 

Now my gripe over the 26 range. Why did stihl make a 44mm and a 44.7mm bore and piston? Just makes the whole, process harder,

Just a length of steel tube - got two diameters.

 

I reckon Stihl got the wind up em when they tried the Husqvarna 346NE and it had a 44.3mm piston so they did the same to try to catch up:blushing:

Can you get some bigger spark plugs ? :lol:

 

In fact....you can:thumbup:

Been looking at this spark plug hole.

 

There is definatly not enough meat around it to use a re tap. Unless it's doubled up and I just know that won't work.

 

Ah well, new pot it is then.

 

Will get some pics up of my brazing in a new outlet on the 660 later.

think there are 2 types,up to 1994 and 94 on the later coil fits more saws according to stihl cat,what years your saw ?

 

In the States, some 064's came from the factory with plastic flywheels - these would have a different coil and timing curve. Supposedly less aggressive. Check your IPLs to be certain.

There is a PDF that Stihl did on this subject. The early 066 had a 13.5mm crank and an aluminium flywheel, the first ones had fixed ignition timing.

 

This was hurting through kickback so Stihl fitted an auto retard on the coil making it much nicer. the coil number ending 1311 is the one that will work with the aluminium flywheel and has the variable ignition timing.

 

The one starting 0000 has fixed timing and is found on many saws including the 026 etc.

 

Stihl then fitted a 15.5mm crank and poly flywheel as the aluminium ones were twisting the end of the crank off:blushing: I believe the coil on these was the 1314 coil .

 

I know about all this as my 066 redeye needs converting and all this is from memory - I am that sad:001_rolleyes:

 

I thought all 064s had aluminium flywheels that were slightly less deep than the 066 ones - not disputing you Wes but thinking out loud - if anyone wants the relevant PDF about the flywheel/coil compatibility on 064/066 then PM me - it makes fascinating reading....anyone want to know about dual key flywheels!

Not much today. Docs this morn.

 

And just a haze of an afternoon turning a freelander from a 4x4 into a front wheel drive.

 

Box had gone so removed the drive shaft and blanked off the gearbox end. Now all good.
