Like I said .... I know you pay your money you take your chances ect... It was more the attitude of garden hire spares ..they really couldn't care less once they got my ££££ never mind I'm going to clean the original pot up and try a meteor piston !!! As its only a spare saw

The rings on the Chinese kits are almost always junk. If you ever use an aftermarket kit(which generally means it is Chinese), get caber rings for the piston. They are available on Ebay. It is what I run on my HyWay kits with no problems. Also, I would reuse a factory circlip before using the new chinese ones.

Sounds like the same advice as I would give, I would firmly agree with WYK on this one:thumbup:

Yep Same. I had a replacement pot and piston from them fail on a 346xp and a ms441 after a couple of tanks. Just cut my losses and walked away. Wont do it again now.
