  1. Just a couple more, k65 and a 5 32 hand mower.
  2. So here are some more of my machines, the f70 from 1964, the 65 is the last production machines to the UK from the Tomos factory, the ring saw is a very rare beast from the early 70s.

    If you are not getting transfer between tanks then all is fine, you may, or may not believe this but I have sealed tanks and holes in tanks, use the very runny super glue, run a bead along the seam, now liberally sprinkle bi carbonate of soda over it, within minutes it will set like concrete, if necessary rub down and re apply, don’t knock this till you try it.

    The only seal is an o ring at the bottom which is why over time they can leak between tanks, to get the manual oiler to the oil tank it has to pass through the fuel tank which is above the oil tank, if the o ring is disturbed your sealant could flow into the oil galleries.

    Where is this tank actually leaking? You need to very careful putting sealant in the tank, the manual oil pump plunger and cylinder runs through the fuel tank and into the oil tank, on the bottom is a rubber seal to stop fuel leaking into the oil tank and visa ersatz, you could end up blocking the manual.
  6. Hi Aled, I am pretty sure you can use the clamp from the old 372xp.
  7. My MS90F from 1959, and clock from 1970 with picture of a 162se
  8. 254FG from the eighties, and my 42 special , plus very early chain spinner.

    Sorry, yet another senior moment, this is what retirement has done to me.

    Thank you sir. Excuse the bad language it is the owner of the saw, his stubby drove over it. IMG_0704.MOV

    Yes, the rear handle assembly, needless to say it is all alloy, the saw originally came off a Jonsered band saw, by the time I went up to see the farm where it came from the scrap man had taken the rest! I could not believe it.

    I don’t suppose you have any Jonsered 2095 bits by any chance?

    Good advise, my Husqvarna ms90f fortunately is all complete, even the spark plug cover which is always missing, these old saws are so solid, and heavy.

    What is the muffler on the Husqvarna 100, I have never seen that before.
  15. Blocking off primer carbs is pretty easy, short bit of pipe with a suitable blank in the end off it, golf tee works well, push onto the unused connection, don’t forget to blank the return to tank pipe, unfortunately this is not going to help with your starting issues.
  16. I understand the reasoning for the composite bearing cage, and Husqvarna are not the only manufacturer to use them, however it has to be said the metal cage bearings seem to out last them, dry rarely saw failed bearing cages on 357 or 346, there has been numerous material changes to the cage, to there is now a new supplier of the bearing rather than SEM, same as the 585/592.

    CRANK SEALS

    The machine has crankcase induction, they are quite prone to leakage between the crankcase and the crank bob weight, I only ever worked on a few, they do not rev very high, are you intending to actually use this saw seriously?
  18. This was rectified on the 592/585 with thicker material as said, this was known about so should really be covered by warranty.

    CRANK SEALS

    Looks tidy enough, the spark plug cover is always missing, yours there?

    The 100 was the later all orange saw, the 90 was the earliest 1959 black and orange, put some pictures up be good to see it.

    CRANK SEALS

    Are we actually talking about the old 100 with the big sloping fuel tank on the top, no brake or anti vibration? The old HL carb parts should still be available , try Rowena over in Wales.

    Husqvarna 3120

    And very pretty it is to. Is it the later saw with a choke or the earlier more powerful model it ha primer?
  23. The Mityvac is most saw techs go to pressure/vac tester.
  24. That stuff is every techs pet hate!
