    Echo Parts

    Anyone know where to get the echo parts in the UK. I need a new piston for a SRM 4600 strimmer. Cheers Paul

  6. The pully went on timing belt on my Land Cruiser, snapping the belt and something else! is that bad, can I stick it together?
  7. I find it so bloody annoying that these so called "chainsaw shops" rip people off! I bet it took you 20mins to fix.
  8. Yes but some people have moral standards and don´t want to see people ripped off. Let alone killed.

    Stihl ms261

    The 260/261s in college are awful, only good saw we have is the Husky346. I would look at the Husky 550xp.
  10. Firstly there is nothing wrong with old Huskys!! But I would be ashamed to have given you that saw in its filthy state to work on! A wipe with a rag costs nothing and takes 2 mins!
  11. Yes there is a little score but it does not seem to go down to the opening. Is it not worth it then?
  12. Forgot to say , feels smooth with no ridges.
  13. Pics for Steve to look at:thumbup1:
  14. Have a look here, I have bought stuff of this chap. HUSQVARNA 61 CYLINDER & PISTON ASSEMBLY. USED. | eBay Paul
  15. Have a look on flebay Windsor 18? 58AG064 Chainsaw Chain 64D/Links .058/1.5mm 3/8? Pitch | eBay Paul
  16. Hi Steve, I think I have found the problem. The part you arrowed was just gunk where I wiped the cylinder. the real problem is a groove in the cylinder and on the piston. Did not notice this as I was focused on the general grooves near the outlet port. What is the best next? Buy a chinese cylinder and piston? Maybe change the piston for a Meteor? Cheers Paul
  17. Here are the pics.
  18. Ta! The plug was quite pale, but i thought it was because of low compression. Will strip it today and have a look. Will try to get some pics as well. Paul

  20. Thanks for the info! If I were to strip it down, could I send it to you for the treatment? Cheers Paul
  21. Thanks for the comments. What sort of grades of wet and dry do you use? What pistons do you recommend? Thanks Paul
  22. Hi I´m new to this forum and would like to ask some advice. I have just been given a Husky 50 Rancher white top in pretty good condition. (I was just going to use it for spares for my other Black top 50.) The piston has been replaced on the rancher but there is still lowish compression. Had a look through the exhaust port and the "new" piston is scored as well. So any thoughts about a new piston/cylinder set. Shall I look at a 55 set? Any suggestions where, and from who to buy from. The saw is immaculate otherwise. I would only be using it for a bit of cross cutting,small trees, firewood etc. Thanks Paul
