This was in the shop again yesterday. Bar oiling hole got blocked, chain ran dry and started to smoke. Customer stopped running and brought to me. Clutch service, chain sharpen, bar dressing later it left running and oiling. Nice to see an engine that I built from parts out doing work in the field.......
So this machine came back yesterday with a not running right complaint. It looks like it got wet, the plug is corroded externally, the clutch springs and shoes are rusty, clutch drum is rusty. What stopped the show is the chain brake, it's a farmertec cover and it melted and the brake band is out of position and rubbing the drum now. New housing on the way along with some clutch parts.
This one came back again with a fuel leak this time. I put in a new fuel line from the purge primer to the carb/tank vent and it is back up and running again.
very impressive post more

What gasket material did you use for that crankcase cover? Also would you happen to have a part number for the piston ring compressor you used?

I’m working on the same saw. I have a question regarding the little spring on where it goes. Thank you
