Stihl 064

[TreeAb]

Hi folks

 

I have a stihl 064 to get working, i found play in the crank shaft on the clutch side, further looking in to it i found a metal shim between the magnesium casing and the bearing, this is loose and i assume this is supposed to be from in to the magnesium casing in the manufacturing process?? this i believe where the play in coming from, bearing seem fine and smooth.

 

long story short, looking for a another casing for my 064 or does anyone no that i can use a 066 casing as they are the same era and look very similar in the diagrams?

 

any help or thoughts would be good

 

cheers

According to mediacat the part is used on 064 and MS640 only.

Hi Ray1

 

cheers for your help, will try and source a ms640 casing and looking in to the diagrams. you would think the part numbers should match. hmm what's the chances.

Metal shim between bearing and crankcase? Do you mean the oil seal?

Hi Eddy

 

no there is a metal shim, it doesn't show you this on the parts diagrams you see on line.

 

i do have pic but can seem to get it posted.

This is a 064 clutch side case it doesn't have a shim its just a through hole, the flywheel side on the other hand does have a shim in the bearing housing.
