Yeah they never get picked up at all, can't be bothered using the easy-lift harness every time. Niko uses these to stop his trawler from drifting in a gale.

Well my Dolmar 5105 blew up for the second time in 2 years, lost all compression again and scored the piston, this time on Aspen. In the 2 and a half years I have had it it has scored the piston twice and the coil failed once, not been abused either, pretty poor build quality imo and not up to commercial use.

I have a 550 as well and it's a lovely little saw, don't get me wrong I loved the dolly but quality just isn't right, took pot off today and the ring has broke up and put a hole right through the side of the piston! No non gen spares either and it's 200 quid to fix just on parts so I guess it's now a paper weight!

Not good news Ian if you want too send it down too me I will

Pressure and vac test it and go from there

do you think the cylinder is salvageable

or If you wanna do it yourself I can send you up a new piston but again possible air leak might be cause of problem

But Iam here too help sort out your saw
