    When you buy a knock off saw, yah you get a knock off saw, I guess. It just makes me appreciate the craftsmanship that Husky put into their product. Saws that run for 20-30yrs cutting and cutting. Especially when someone of your skill and others dial them in to perform with perfection. Cut some trees with my son today, he's 36yrs old. We had a great day cleaning up the trees in his yard. All the best to you and yours. Mahalo Tinman 🤙🤙🤙

    I made a little puck where you are using a board. All I did was take a piece of 6160 drop off I had that's about 1-1/4" round and trued the end up then center drilled it and then parted it off at about 3/4" long, flipped it then trued up the side I parted off. The live center lines up with the center drill hole and allows the other side to put pressure against the top of the cylinder. One other thing I do is order 6160 over twice the length of what I need for the largest mandrel I will be making then true one end up and center drill it, place the live center then turn it to a couple thou smaller than my bore diameter, flip the piece true up the other end and center drill it then turn it down to a smaller diameter cylinder bore size. Example is 54mm-.002 on one end then 52mm-.002 on the other end. When I install it, to use it, I let the live center help line it up in the chuck to remove run out and using copper pieces for soft jaws I can tighten the chuck on which ever end I need without distorting or damaging it. This allows you to work farther away from the chuck and makes it easier and safer for turning the base. Just a hint that you may or may not like.

    I lost spark in mine after the first fire. It ended up being the spark plug boot, of all things. The first heat cycle on it made it shrink up where it wouldn't let the ignition wire contact the plug any more. Swapped an OEM spark plug boot onto mine, and it ran again.

    I have a G660 Farmertec Big Blue and it did something similar. Sometimes it would start, other times you could pull your arm off (doesn't take long on that saw, especially if you don't make sure the decompression is still on for each pull) even if you just stopped to refuel. Anyway, it had 2 problems, one was a shifted diaphragm on the fuel pump side of the carb, the factory assembled it off center and the pins actually punched a 2nd hole. I was able to re-position the diaphragm without replacing it. The 2nd major problem was the sparkplug connector is designed to pierce the plug wire and hit the core and had no securing or guiding method. It wasn't making reliable contact, so you would get a weak spark on account of it jumping 2 gaps (and sometimes not). I stripped it back, wrapped it around the spring connector and soldered it. I then filled the boot with silicone grease and re-assembled. It runs well now except for both tanks leak in storage. Fuel is the cap (FS-91 cap ordered). Oil seems to be leaking even if I store it on it's side, so it's not the cap. Hope maybe your problem is the plug contact. Thanks for sharing, great content!

    Possible just replace the flywheel and key with another aftermarket flywheel if the key slot isn't to bad of shape then reuse and lap I mean lap with valve grinding compound. Then re install the new. Just see who it runs compared to the one tinman put together. Then make your choice on if you want to tuen one up or complete new bottom end and turn it up. Unless the man said i don't care one bit if you pull it apart or not. Then at that point do as you wish! Good luck and love ya brother be safe. Hope little man/miss is doing just as good as you and your wife buddy!

    these kits are a real temptation, but the shortcomings in fit and finish really add up fast. Your flywheel key shear is probably because the shaft taper and the flywheel are not matching. You could use some shaft repair epoxy to insure a snug fit (with release agent on one part for later disassembly) or lap the buggers in with compound if the fitment error is not too great. I come away feeling like a guy will be chasing component failures until he has pretty much replaced most of the saw with reliable OEM parts.

    I have found the farmertec kits can be very good with OEM or good quality aftermarket parts. The farmertec ms 660 kits seem really good. Only problems i have seen are some clutch drums are out of round. The crankshaft big end rod bearing is sometimes not the tightest. The cylinder squish is like .060 or greater. But with a hyway cylinder it seems to make the saw a beast!

    Coil failure - just swap coil from your 288 to the silver dogged one, answer in 5 minutes.... Doesnt need to be a permanent swap just to tell you if coil has gone south. Same with flywheel if necessary. I dont like the way that saw stopped, like something got caught up. Regarding the lathe - I prefer making a mandrel to slide the cylinder onto. That way I'm guaranteed the cylinder face is square to the cylinder - I've had a few that weren't square from new, they got corrected...

    Hey Tin Man I have a serious question for you. I was on the arborists Forum website, someone wanted to improve their Husqvarna 372 xpw (?), and I had mentioned a highway big bore cylinder head. And of course I get some comments from some ologists, saying that it would cause the saw to run 20% slower and the original cylinder head is better. Now I've watched you and some of other Buckin's friends, and how you guys work on saws. What's got me scratching my head is how can it go 20% slower when I can adjust it to go just as fast as a stock cylinder head? I may not be the smartest guy but here at my job I do very well, (I build airplanes). And even here at my job I get kind of the same flac from the other ologists, and usually I end up fixing their mistakes. I'm very familiar with Machining I'm very familiar with small small measurements/ tolerances. Thinking of getting away from that website unless I'm actually looking for information on saw builds. So basically I can understand if I do a straight swap with no other adjustments comma like putting on a bigger carb and adjusting that carburetor and the throttle to get it to go the same speed as the OEM cylinder head, that it will run 20% slower. Like you, I build from the bearings up, all new gaskets all that type of stuff. And I want my saw to be the most Dependable Workhorse possible, I'm not trying to build some competition race saw.
