Do not know- what I do know is this one stopped and I was the first to open it- no foreign bodies apart from bits of ring- all bearings, cages and shells complete and undamaged, nothing like a plate screw out of place, no other debris in muffler/crankcase or cylinder- no dings on top of piston...

Bearings, bottom end and all usual suspects are like new still- cannot find anything missing on the intake tract- so unless somehow something was introduced through the intake tract from an outside source- we might beg to differ on this one.

Picked up another 2100 the other day- swapped for an old Oregon D009 24 inch bar and chain. Missing the starter rope- all top plastics- clutch, so no idea if it had spark or compression. 2100's are rare enough here- when you have one you grab what parts you can where you find them. Fitted up a...

Husqvarna 455 Rancher- are these things prone to ring catch in the transfers? This is the second one I have been presented with that died in similar circumstances- almost like the ring became gummed (carbon?) into the intake side, near the locator pin and the other side has been forced out...

Keep an eye on local marketplace and the bay of E type sales of 029's and compare their condition to your own saw- base a price off of that? As for the 170- what @Chainmale suggests is the perfect reply and although they state 16" as max- the saw will not appreciate it.

Its a balancing act. There are several ways to go about it, cheap aftermarket, secondhand OEM and new OEM. You have to balance what is needed versus what can be saved, what the needed costs and your time- all weighed up against current secondhand MS 361 running saw prices. It does not take real...

In my opinion- the saw was never straight gassed to cause that kind of failure. If it had been, the top of the piston and the rings would be welded/fused as one. In your photos it looks like the rings are still free to move in the lands. Also the large bash mark in the lower transfer looks like...

It can be removed- but the cylinder has to come off to do it. Make sure the flywheel is not loose- or rubbing the coil first- then perhaps check if the flywheel key is still in place and the wheel correctly aligned. Does the saw have a normal ordinary recoil starter- or one of those soft start...

They are a fairly peculiar piston that you cannot really confuse with that of another saw and if it were for say the 440 not the 435- no way in heck it is going into the bore- so oversized piston might be a bit of a reach. I guess they could have deleted the cylinder joint gasket halves and...

Well, I can say I have never personally had an engine seize that well- but I guess- possible. You say the piston is basically fused to the cylinder? The wrist pin socket on the piston is broken? So what exactly is wrong with the bottom end? Had the bearings in the bottom end failed- entirely...

Just clean and check each component as it cones off in regards to the starter- once cleaned and after being handled and looked at for a while, sometimes something jumps out at you as not quite right. Hydro locking is where the crankcase becomes full of fluid through repeated rope pulls and...

Ah, so unknown history and unknown parts replacement. Timing off a few degrees. Flooding/ Hydro locking. Excessive carbon build up. Binding or damaged starter pulley. Damaged/broken clutch components. Any of the above can interfere with clean starting. As you remove items off the saw-...

Well- it could be any one of a number of things. But lets start with who refurbished it and why? What did the refurb entail- what parts were replaced and what were they replaced with? The 435 is no monster to start- but there are things that can make it more difficult.

Your oil line is no longer available- but was part number 43731010531 and it had an expanded end to fit the nipple, a right angle formed in the tube and a socket at the other end to allow for a pick up oil filter. It is part #8 in the diagram. Card or paper gaskets were quite common and you...

Nice work on the homemade tool- did you use a bar between the bolt heads to lever with? Cant really help with the oil line- I do not know if they has a cast in grommet to seal through the case- or specific fit up to the pump? But if i is straight shot nipple to nipple then Husqvarna coil type...

Yes- but also remember I am recommending on borrowed information- we do not have pennies here! But yes, I believe you need the smaller flat base tool. However, if you have some steel- 3 small bolts and one large nut- it is not too hard with the assistance of a drill and a welder- to make your...

There will be Echo specific clutch removal tools all over Ebay and Amazon- but there are several types. You need a sense of scale to pick the correct one. If you sit a penny on the crank stub centralised and look straight down on the penny face and the triangle on the clutch centre is same as...

Most certainly. I do not own a Jonsered that is complete and does not run. Had I included parts saws- I would need a bigger deck! :ROFLMAO:
