hi..can anyone tell me the dimensions of the thin o ring that sits behind the oil pump worm carrier on a husky 365 sp..cheers
-
thanks for the pointers.

hi all. can anyone point me to a good husqvarna parts supplier, as i have a 346 and it seems some parts are hard to get... john
-
cheers...i will have to check regarding open or closed ports on these.

hi spud. yep total fubar. looks like the piston ring locating pin has came away and dug into the cylinder by about 2mm on the intake side.
-
thanks for the reply's. looks like meteor don't make 44.3mm kits. can only get a piston in that size. oem kits are ranging from £215 - £273 as good as 346's are it does not seem worth it for an old saw. may as well take a punt on a am kit and hope for the best. john

hi. would like to get a meteor kit but can only find 42mm and 45mm(open port so i believe on the 45mm) so got to get a closed port 44.3mm pot and piston kit for 346 and found these two: chainsaw parts husqvarna chainsaw cylinder piston kit or HUSQVARNA 350 346 351 353 CYLINDER ASSY NEW 44.3mm FOR PROFESSIONAL USE are either kits ok or can anyone point to a better kit. john
