  1. running a 576 with heated handles just now,could just about fry an egg on the handles,good if you wear gloves though,i would deffo recommend
  2. just one more thing guys,how much do these roughly cost just out of interest ?,cant seem to find a price anywhere
  3. cheers guys
  4. i think it was grey,just looked at it half an hour ago too,pretty sure its grey aye
  5. would one from a husky 372 or 365 fit the 576?
  6. anyone got a workshop manual for a husky 576 autotune,cant seem to find one online anywhere
  7. aye this for me
  8. sounds like somethings been sooked in from the exhaust to the barrel and got lodged inside,
  9. flywheel on,seems ok,ignition unit back on,now trying to get that pesky carb back in,wish id paid more attention to the throttle cable,can only get it on in a way I have half throttle,dunno why it all seems to fit well,having a wee break to refresh the mind lol
  10. aye took pictures before I dismantled so that should be ok,i was going to try a little bid of magic metal to adhere the key into place and build back up again,then pray the flywheel catches
  11. aye I got it in first go,really surprised how easy it was,new problem just popped up though,just noticed a bit of the keyway behind the flywheel sheered when it came off,i still have the keyway bit that sheered,its a clean break,whats best u reckon,pretty sure it would Loctite back into place but not sure if it would hold out or not ?
  12. aye something along those lines lol
  13. nothing worse than a newish saw giving you grief,seems strange its packed in already
  14. well as advised it is a right tosser of a job,piston out,not overly bad looking to be honest,will look into the bearings later,checked the carb,no leaks,holds pressure fine,just realised getting the piston back in isn't going to be easy as I cant find my piston clamps,any other way of getting it back in as there isn't to much space for fingers
  15. lol,well I never got far with it today,got called out to work,was like the Dakar rally heading up the hill in about a foot of snow,will give it a bash tomorrow
  16. looks like todays job due to that white crap that falls from the sky
  17. ahh ok cheers,will check that out,never noticed his post,will it make much odds do you think when the psi is that low ?
  18. jeezo,cheers spud,sounds like fun
  19. cheers spud, thought it was a bit low,just ordered one from arb Ireland ,saws quite tidy,too good to be confined to the bottom of the shed anyway lol
  20. further up than Renfrew bud
  21. no we don't call it that up here
  22. aye was thinking that myself,would explain why it runs poorly
  23. just done 3 saws-results are as follows jonsered 2165 - 155 psi husky 346xp - 150 psi husky 338xpt - 100 psi not sure if the psi on the 338 goes as high as the other saws or i need new ring on the piston,what do you reckon ?,the wee saw does run a bit erratic,i.e goes ok,dies out,picks up,bit gutless etc,any advice greatly appreciated
  24. what is the price for a 576xp autotune carb just out of interest ?
  25. husky technical extreme for me,very pricey but comfortable and the balls are still intact after 8 months or so
