stihl 084

[wisecobandit]

I had one in exactly the same a few months back.

Hardest bit for you will be trying to obtain the oil drive part/cog. Stihl no longer sells or list them. I managed to get a new one off the chainsaw guy in Canada which was the assembley also with the metal fork for about £30 new old stock.

Cause I believe is down to the bearing collapsing. Yet again its a plastic cage bearing. You will prob find burnt plastic smeared inside the drum where the bearing goes.

New springs, if the plates are moving around. The centre boss doesn't wear, just breaks.

[shavey]

thanks i will change them

[wisecobandit]

Yup as Rich says replace your clutch springs.

 

Oh Colwoodlandcare...

That 084 is the earlier model oil pump drive. When I was searching I did wander if it was possible to fit the later version drive. Theres a possibility they may interchange as the plastic cog that remains in the saw is the same part number as the later version which may or may not still be available.

[wisecobandit]

1124 640 7500 is the part number of the plastic spur wheel and fork on the early version you have.

The newer has a piece of wire that drives locates in the drum instead of the fork.

There you go.

Second hand part tho

[colwoodlandcare]

Thank you wisecobandit. Ive just ordered it. So you think its more than just the bearing melting?

Saw arriving tomorrow so will be able to look but thought it would be a good idea to buy the oil tank drive as you say they are hard to come by now.

Tbf, it doesn't look like the oil pump needs replacing, just the clutch drum and roller bearing

I'd suggest waiting to see how accurate the ebay seller is about its general condition when it arrives, before I ordered too many parts for it. Just a thought.
