Depends on which model 024. Most had a shorter stroke but I believe the super had the same stroke but certainly worth checking to see.

Horse lorry took out another and they are having to cut 3 horses out. Also a 70 year old pedestrian was run over by a van that couldnt stop and slid on the mud. (Critical condition)

To be fair I think it would be straightforward to make as standard metric and most common pitch threads. Maybe that could be a project for you when you have some spare time on your hands.Just take measurements of the collar size etc before you fit it, then run out a few and sell them on ebay if they are now discontinued. Not the most common part but as you've found out a pain in the rear when you want one.. As much as we rely on bar studs theoretically they are just a cross between a guide and a clamp.

Stihl Chainsaw 056 056AV Side Brake Cover Bar Stud New BOX775 | eBay Message him about the postage cost if your interested. Hes pretty could and will reduce it if he can. Normally gets my stuff over here in a week. Or look thru his other 056 stuff, he put a load of bolts in with some other stuff and didn't charge me the extra postage.

Just seen a pic of one. Yeah you got the right part number. Unfortunatly ive only got the short version.
-
Have a measure and let us know how long it needs to be.

This is the same sort of thing tho Stihl - 0000 664 2405 may do it with a mild mod Collar Stud M8 (Quick Tensioner) Stihl - 0000 664 2405 | Stihl MS260/026 Chainsaw Spares

Is that definite? I bought a few from them a few months ago as they are great for using on stripped 8mm bar studded saws when ppl overtighten them and pull the thread out the saw. Just retap to 10mm and jobs a good-en. Wont promise but I may have one.

I just had some oversize dogs come today from America and the full wrap should be here in the next day or so. Won a second hand one on ebay.com :-)

The stihl fuel line works well and is about £3.50. They also list it suitable for impulse line on some older stihls.
-
Bloody main road being resurfaced was causing some nice delays and detours this afternoon so just aswell you saw Barry this morning lol
-
Prob go for £100 or so on ebay as it is. Chances are it will just be a new piston and rings and the cylinder will clean up and about an hour if you know what your doing. Finding out what caused it is sometimes more of a battle.
-
Keep telling you Jon when your ready ive got a new 395xp here still in the box and I will bring a ported 394/395 along to but you need some of your big butts . Remember the 395 gains nearly 1hp just by the muffler mod due to epa restrictions Oh and heres a video for you to watch 390 v 661
-
Courtesy of WYK or should I say stolen from lol. So 385/390 is 16.7ib (7.5 kg) with oil/fuel But as no ones brave enough to ever put a stihl on the scales my moneys still on the Husqvarna being lighter..
-
Yeah walbro wj39. Will need to fit a tail for the impulse which isn't hard due to using the 395 cylinder/intake manifold.
-
Oh gawd please don't get me started on what ive got Im building a 394/395 hybred at the mo using the heavier (more torque) crank and fly off a 394 but using a new quad ported new meteor cylinder which im waiting to turn up from the USA. Will get ported etc before it goes on the saw. 394 non epa carb etc. Cant wait to put it up against a 660 when its done ....... :lol:
-
36" .404 chain on this one. I actually prefer .404 over about 32" .It is ported and the muffler opened up so doesn't struggle to pull the full bar in oak/beech.
-
660 v 390 pretty close match to be fair. Stick a 395 v 660 in anything over 25" the 395 will take the lead. Once ported the 395 becomes a clearer winner against a ported 660.
-
I think its more a case of storing data rather than remapping. Theres small room for adjustments in there but most of it just shows data and what the saw has actually done workwise, hours its been ran, air/fuel ratios its been using, fault codes etc. Its not so much remapping like vehicle ecu's as people are lead to think.
-
Did you get her up and running? For some reason people do seem to be in a habit of installing the gaskets/diapragms in the wrong order on 394's, so if you struggle it may pay to go back in to double check they are installed correctly. Great saws, ive got a couple and on a full entire rebuild on a 3rd which im taking pics all the way thru etc so will do a thread at some stage in the near future.
-
Personally I think it looks a bit ugly and would rather go down the smart water or similar route if I felt the need.
-
Check to make sure the crankcases are the same tho. Most are different and don't have the oiling facilitys to oil the bar. Certainly saw/stone cutters such as the husky 3120 and stihl 075/076/510 the crankcases are different between the saw-stone saws

TK Carb Kit: Yard, Garden & Outdoor Living | eBay
-
You could struggle with that one. They where known as TK carbs (normally a slide carb not a butterfly?). That's prob 20+ years old now?
-
Good call. An L screw adjusted to rich that can cause pooling of fuel in the crankcase and when tipped on its side causes similar issues.
