The end is probably in the exhaust, it won't be in the carb as the port is never open to the top of the piston. It may have got stuck in the transfer but less likely. Just pull the exhaust off and take a look.
-
Hopefully, you used new fuel in the saw otherwise you may have had a small seize. Other than that check the fuel filter us clean, the fuel line is OK and the gauze filter in the carb (other side of the carb from the diaphragm) is clear of woodchip. The carb may just need tuning.

Thanks guys, I'm blushing:blushing:
-
Cheers and the theft pissed me off as well!
-
Not ported a MS460 but done a MS440, not a massive amount I could do down to the piston type and design. Ask Jonny Birch on here, it was his saw I did and unfortunately, it was swiped a few months after I did it but he liked what I did to it:thumbup:
-
You old just check the colour of the plug and make sure the centre electrode is tan in colour. Black and it us too rich!
-
The fuel should run out leaving oil in the tank with the oiler set to full when both are full to begin with! If you are concerned about the fuel consumption, get the carb set by someone that knows what they are doing:thumbup:
-
Then I won't mock the afflicted......how do you feel about the Archers and Saga holidays:lol:
-
Not wishing to point fingers but....... IT WAS RICH Looks like he needs your help to fight his battles:001_rolleyes: The yout of today:001_rolleyes: no backbone eh Barrie:lol:
-
You started it bud:001_rolleyes: and don't bring Barrie in to it, no issues with Aspen dude.....apart from him wearing his underpants on the outside of his trousers:lol:

Very funny Captain Pugwash or is it Master Bates:001_tt2:

Washing machine motor control board fried - repaired it with fuse wire - the water pump went - full of water let in by a very loose motor shaft causing wear in the nylon housing - JB welded a new bit of nylon on to support the shaft, drilled a hole in the end of it to let the water out and screwed in a wood screw to take up the shaft end float - still running 5 years later:001_rolleyes:

The tool isn't good on MS200Ts, a sharp awl and a belt on the end of it with a hammer usually shifts the seals - expect them to shatter and then dig out the debris - safety glasses are good when doing this. Clean the seat and insert the new ones with a suitable socket on the seal and tap in to place.
-
My my Eddy, that's a long one....ding dong:lol:
-
I thought it may be yours Martin!
-
Just try the L screw on one turn out before you tear it down. Personally I would just replace the seals if they prove to be bad unless the bearings are shot!
-
Big powerful older Husky, need to be beefy to pull them over as the starter pulley is a tad small. Spares can be an issue but they are decent saws
-
Looking at your post again, you DON'T adjust the L screw for highest speed, this is running lean, you bring the L screw in till the revs race and then back off circa 1/4 turn and then adjust idle. Give it one turn out and see if that settles it
-
This is sounding like an air leak to me - reason for this is that if you undo the idle adjuster to the point it doesn't do anything, the throttle valve is either stuck open or the engine is getting air in from elswhere. I had a 630 Jonsered once and that was exactly the same - I found the crank seal had actually dissintegrated completely! Try setting the L screw one turn out from fully in and then undo the idle screw - if this still gives a faster than normal idle then take the side rubber grommet of the side of the airbox, start the saw and physically push the carb throttle arb close with your thumb and see if the revs drop - it is possible the throttle mechanism is catching or a bit sticky and if the revs continue being too high - it has an air leak. Continuing to run the saw like this may cause damage - a good engineer should be able to pressure/vac check the saw to ascertain where the leak is.
-
Looks like it can be one or the other. Mine is the electronic Quickstop so has the module fitted. It is worth the OP checking the breaker if it is a saw with a contact breaker as these can get dirty and cause spark issues!

Should I be able to smell Smoke from next doors fire in my lounge

Is it an older house or a newer one - as others have said, maybe just leaks between flues! -
At least it is on normal Freeview now not Murdochs money machine!
-
They have a coil and electronic trigger module, at least mine does!
-
Should I buy Husky or Stihl? Wait, I've got an idea!

We did a saw fest a year ago, four men, 20 saws, lots of cookies, chips and a decimated log pile:lol: TBH, it was good for all concerned as the other three arborists work with each other now - I just made lost of noise and chip:thumbup: -
I would estimate 65 - 70% off bore, the piston has a big front skirt and the ring ends are both on the back of the bore:thumbup:
