    I think the carb on the 034 was a Tilley HK 43 . On that jet deal you's be surprised how much fuel a carb can pass just through the low speed jets .More than one would think .

    I think it was perhaps one of the first models that used the center drive oil pump as oppossed to the older nylon gear driven oilers used on the 028- 038-042 -048 models .

    Dean has had some serious health problems as I recall .I had conversed with him on the phone some years back but can't remember exactly what they were .Not that it's makes any difference because whatever it was is his business . Whatever he did to that thing it was tough to pull over so I just...

    A couple years ago I worked on a pair of J-reds for a guy and one was a 630 .The thing was a good runner but in my opinion while it way have had a leg up on say an 038 AV or an 036 it wasn't by much . On that though in all these years I've only wrenched on 3 J-reds ,2 60 cc and one 3 cuber ,525...

    I had an 034 with a 036 top .From what little I used it the thing seemed fine to me for 60 cc . One of Dean ( washington hotsaws ) machines made it east to one of our GTG's .I think all he did was lower the jug but I really don't know other than my observance of how it ran .That thing had...

    Well the company has tried to make that so but good old Yankee ingenuity has fouled their plans if only for little bit .Guys like me would figure out to fix the things if we had to make all the tools of which by Gawd I have .They don't have a German engineer born who could out smart this old...

    Most little trim saws even the old ones used an outboard . I'll have to say this though ,the older larger saws with an outboard are a darn sight easier to remove the clutch than most inboards .I had to put a black iron socket in the lathe and cut the champer off so as to gain enough purchase to...

    I dunno Willard .An 066 or 084 is not a week end warrier saw .

    I don't get the idea of that either .In my way of thinking the in board makes it more simple to change rims and in fact to change the chain .It would make sense however that with the chain closer to the crankshaft main bearing on an outboard would be less stressfull to the assembley . Now on...

    We used to take those old rigid mounts and wrap either pipe insulation or rubber electrical tape arond the handles .It gave it a little cushion but more so it increased the diameter of the bar . It helped a lot . On those mounts ,for some reason the souped up 038 mag just goes through them .I...

    It seems that anti vib systems can be a catch 22 .They make them very shock absorbing but then they tear up the mounts .Too ridgid they cause nerve damage from extended use . It seems perhaps the newer spring mounts are promising which in reality is not a new idea at all .Rather an older method...

    He'll likely have a hard time finding a 281 Huskey .Those that have them keep them .That's one dandy of a saw .That was before the days the EPA screwed with them .Got one in the shed as a matter of fact ,not for sale .
