Unless you're going to replace the piston you don't need worry about the pin . If so stuff a clean rag around the rod end area in the bottom open end of the crankshaft so as not to drop stuff into it .Pry the circlip loose with a ice pick but keep your thumb on it else the SOB could fly off...

Blind end meaning the portion opposite the crankshaft .What would be called the "head deck " if it had an actual head .Purpose of reduction of this measurement is to increase the compression .Kind of like cramming 6 pounds of chit in a 5 pound bag ,so to speak . Well know depends on how you do...

Squish is the distance at piston top center from it's face to the bottom of the blind end of the cylinder . I have no idea what that measurement would be on an 064 .One method to measure same is to use short pieces of soft solder on top of the piston then roll it over to flatten the solder .You...

The problem is having two models to be able to check if they might interchange . In my case I've got the 038's just no 064 .

Okay here's what I found .The OEM number for a coil for an 064 is 1122 400 1300 .For 034 1125 400 1300 For 036 0000 400 1300 . Now Baileys have an aftermarket coil they claim is the magic cure for about a dozen saws listed among them the 064 ,Now also keep in mind they list the same coil as a...

Ha ,don't fear the reaper .You'll never know how unless you get your feet wet .Everybody has their first time without going into details . Get on with it .If you hit a snag we're right here .;)

One would think so but it doesn't prove out that way .The modern or latest if you will Ms 660 is a mere shadow to the older 066 .Restricted exhaust etc to meet EPA standards have turned a lion into a pussy cat Running heads up last summer on a 60 some inch diameter ash tree with Tom on one...

Say ,upgrades , missed that the first time through .Good old Fred alias Stihl kid had an 064 with a big bore he bought for cheap over at Kevins one afternoon .I mean that thing had some grunt .I have no idea where he got it but it was a direct bolt on .No machining ,just put it on and fire it up .

I'll go with B on this one. Often a new set of rings will add a lot of life to a tired saw .Keep in mind though it will take a tad to seat new rings on a used cylinder but given enough time they will seat . You'll definately know it once they come home . FWIW I'd just about bet an older 064...
