I'm in the same boat with my husky 36 - sits on floor and suddenly revs up. Where's the best place to get the seals spud? Is there a rubber manifold behind carb like some saws that could be split and causing the prob? Also where do you get those crank seal pullers cheers

Thanks all - just surprised at such a defect - would have thought they'd have sorted that.Ta.

is very stiff to turn in the thread - is that a common problem? - should it need lubrication? - won't seal fuel tight without mole grips - not really sure how fat the o ring should be? also the holder (v shape prongs to keep it in the tank) is mising - would that affect the seal? feels like i should sand the threads on the cap to reduce them? thanks folks

cheers alec

who's the supplier? please
-
nice one spud - the before and after pics really show the difference you've made is that exhaust mod miggd?
-
nice work - looks great
-
ditto

Cheers TCD - as far as I can see that gives the spec on older models but doesn't say much about their good , bad and ugly sides - thanks

I'm impressed - you're either good at photo shop or good at repairing - nice one Barrie

Hi folks I'm spending a lot of time mulling saws and garden machinery and wondering if there's any piece of work either commercial like parkers (if it's still going) or a labour of love of an individual which lists all saws - I'm thinking principally of stihls and huskies- and gives a brief summary like parkers used to - so you would know what to look for at i.e an auction or whether to jump at something or give it a wide berth. There may even be a wider garden machinery type publication?? Any help or pointers appreciated. cheers

What was the problem and solution?

Flymo maxi trim I picked up. Had one in the past – loved it – everything systematically falling apart with this one. Rebuilt carb, did a simple muffler mod and away she went beautifully. Now the coil seems to have given up the ghost barely a tickle when I spin it with the drill. Flywheel re-gapped no joy. On the look out for a non rip off replacement coil - £25 s/hand on ebay is taking the p.. I think. Pioneer or partner saw (haven’t identified it) sloppy recoil jamming – needing a screw down and a bit of loctiting Muffler mod complete on this Ryobi old domestic strimmer. Coupled with a better sense for carb tuning learnt here (cheers chaps) runs and cuts like a demon on….. whatever

I've just got some 'simplegreen' american eco degreasing product - haven't tried it - will let you know when it gets used
-
No they're part of the Draper 'Rustic' range I think
-
well done for seeing it through Rich - epic/saga/odyssey - fair old trek whatever - can't say I'm 100% clear what the final diagnosis is really?
-
Well I'm back to some sort of short circuit that is 'repaired' when the choke is pulled out - I've never done one of those saws but if it's like some others I've seen the kill mechanism is not a milion miles away from other levers. I also had a carb/air filter cover that was squashing wire and causing a short. Also wondering about wire layout/problems in the throttle / trigger /handle.

Full between the ears service £45 plus parts and VAT hang in there rich:thumbup1:
-
Beat me to it - yep - just about all that's left now! COIL Unless of course Rich is hallucinating and the saw is running fine - in which case we need pharmaceutical expertise - you do that too Spud? Or try the mechanical route and a ported temporal lobe?
-
OR it could mean the mix isn't volatile enough without choke with a weak spark in the cylinder - spark inside and spark outside aren't always the same - try re-gapping your new plug to 16 thou
-
Good one Mark - said this some time back about new plug but one thing I would do Rich before the piston replacement is re-gap the spark plug to 16thou
-
Teacher as well Barrie whether you like it or not, same applies to Spud, Rich and everybody here willing to share their expertise. "Thank you, sir, may I have another?"
