Piston Ring
★★★★★
★★★★★
(1)
Part #545154001
This metal ring in your engine, known as the piston ring, seals the gap between the piston and cylinder wall. It makes sure that the gases produced during combustion do not escape and that the engine maintains the pressure it needs to run. If the piston ring is damaged, oil can seep into the combustion chamber, causing your engine to exhibit rough idling and your machine emit blue smoke. To switch out a defective piston ring, detach the old ring from the piston with a screwdriver. When installing the new ring, you may need to compress it to make it fit properly. Please be aware that this genuine OEM replacement part is bought individually. It is recommended that you replace all the piston rings in your machine at once, as they tend to wear down at the same rate. Carefully review your user manual to determine how many rings your machine needs before placing your order.

Bar Adjustment Retainer
Part #530038593
This OEM bar adjustment retainer is a metal component that securely holds the adjustment screw and pin in place, allowing you to adjust the chain tension. It is typically located near the front of the chainsaw, close to the guide bar. If the guide bar is over-pressured, the retainer can become stressed and fail, causing it to ride up on the screw. Signs of a damaged retainer include visible breaks or deformations. You may also have trouble in tightening or loosening the chain, as the screw may become loose during adjustment. To remove a faulty retainer, remove the side cover by loosening the nuts and the tension screw on it with a socket. Unscrew the guide bar and replace the damaged retainer. When installing the new retainer, ensure the cone points towards the adjustment pin. Please note that the replacement retainer is sold separately from the guide bar and adjustment pin.

Both the Fuel line and the Engine fuel line, where dry rotted.

  • Victor from SCOTTSVILLE, KY
  • Very Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Pliers, Socket set
1) While still attached to the fuel tank, I first sized up the old fuel lines with the newer fuel lines.
2) With a pair of needle nose players, I then removed the old dry rotted fuel ?? lines, from the fuel tank.
3) I cleaned the fuel tank and around the carburetor area, to insure that there was no debris, that could possibly fa ll into the path of the new fuel lines installation.
4) I then installed the smaller one of the fuel lines, so that it would be out of the way, of the larger fuel line. I Pulled the fuel line through the smaller hole in the fuel tank, with needle nose players. I pulled the smaller fuel line out through the fuel tank filler hole, attached the fuel filter to the smaller fuel line. I Made sure that the fuel filter was extended to the furthest end of the fuel tank bottom. Six inches in all. I then attached the smaller fuel line to the carburetor.
5) I Installed the larger fuel line, followed the same procedures as the smaller fuel line.
6) Both fuel lines where cut on an angle for easy installation. No lubricant was necessary.
7) I filled up the fuel tank with fresh fuel and oil, new air filter and spark plug. It started on the first pull. Amazing.

installing fuel through fuel tank wall
11 of 18 people found this instruction helpful.
  • RICHARD from BROCKTON, MA
  • Difficult
  • More than 2 hours
  • Pliers, Screw drivers
To start, remove the plastic carburetor grill. DO NOT remove the carburetor. The fuel line has to be sliced down to fit through the tank hole and get it in far enough up into the tank to grab with needle nose pliers.( need long needle nose pliers which I didn't have) I placed about six inches of the plastic tubing in the jaws of vice so t hat half of the tube was squeezed in the vice jaws. I then used a razor blade to shave off the exposed tube. I slipped the shaved end of the tube up through the tank hole far enough to grab with long tweezers and pulled it up to where I could grab it in the tank with needle nose pliers. I put light lube oil on the remaining tubing and pulled it through. It takes a steady firm pull to pull it in. Install the filter and pull the tube back down into the tank. I also used a small diameter drill bit and with my fingers slightly reamed the tube ends to ease the tube over the filter and carburetor nipples. To prime the engine, spray starting fluid into the carburetor and start. Repeat until the engine will run on fuel. It took me hours to figure this out, but will take less than an hour with this method.

Clogged muffler
5 of 9 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Rosanne from BRIDGEWATER, VA
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
Remove the 4 screws holding the rear motor casing. Then you can take the easy route and drill through the front motor housing with a 3/8 to 1/2 bit in order to access the front muffler screw. If you want to work harder you must remove the motor from the shaft, remove the clutch assembly (this requires a long 15t torx bit, removing the spa rk plug to stuff the piston with rope or rag to seize up the piston, and then removing the front motor casing to access the front muffler screw). Once you access both muffler screws remove them with the t20 torx driver. Install the new muffler with the small gasket inside the housing, and the larger gasket/heat shield between the muffler and the motor.
