I’m afraid I have already ordered that one from eBay. thank you for the kind suggestion though! Will keep them in mind if Im needing one again. thanks

Ahhh ok thank you. Just going from a quick conversation on the phone to a radiator repair company. If that’s the case may just bite the bullet on the aluminium one, as new ones from the likes of spectrum plant are again plastic. thanks for the replies! connor

Hi, my Timberwolf 150 radiator sprung a leak today. So brought it home before using it and doing any damage. I understand most company’s can recore the existing radiator for £150-£200 ish. Alternatively I spotted an aftermarket Ali radiator for sale on eBay for £450. Wondering if anyone has experience using this one or should I go ahead and repair the original. What’s drawing me to the newer one is it’s all aluminium…. No plastic top and bottom sections. any help/advice appreciated. Thanks Connor

Thank you for the reply, decided to replace it with a new motor.

Evening all, I have had a small hydraulic leak from my timberwolf 150 indeed roller motor for a while now. Putting up with it by covering the underneath with tarps. Getting a bit sick of this so finally decided I need to do something 😂 Its the seal it's leaking from, is it an easy swap if I get the correct size seal or do I need to fork out for a replacement motor? Thanks Connor.

No probs, thanks stubby as mentioned have seen the key is sheared again so will investigate that first and go from there thanks for the help!

Hi spud, thanks for the in-depth reply. Took the flywheel back off and as predicted the key has sheared again. Is this down to not torquing up the flywheel to the correct setting. Just recently bought the saw and when I say the flywheel spun off I meant it was spinning with the key sheared the first time round. Still attached but the bolt was barely hand tight. I’ll get another key and get it all put back together see what it’s like after. I just picked up the saw and have used it a handful of times. Once heated up it was stalling at idle. Made me think the coil was on the way out and then by chance this happened also. I’ll try the new key setting the coil gap again and report back. Thank very much for the advice

Well it’s the same flywheel that was on just the key that I swapped out. And the saw was running pretty well before it flew off. I reckon it just had not been torqued up properly. Think it could be the coil going bad?

Hi folks, Have got a stihl 660 which wasn’t running brilliant. Swapped out the carb to another I new was running well. Ran fine for a minute or two and then the flywheel spun off shearing the key. Luckily I had another so swapped that out and refitted checking the coil gap while I was at it. Now it won’t fire and every third pull or so I get a heavy backfire. Any suggestions? Possibly timing out now? thanks connor
