I found something on a sleeve that could rip a seal up like that had happened on the saw that started this thread. Check the old sleeve that goes on the clutch side that slides inside the seal for rough areas. I found some rough cut likes on a sleeve I just removed and wont reuse it with the...
Spent another hour or so and started project PP260 today. Didnt quite get to use the parts the way I wanted to. Ended up using crank, piston and lower clamshell out of old saw and used cylinder and plastic crankcase from parts saw. Borrowed a bar stud from a green 33cc poulan laying around with...
Keeping a eye on your 372 findings D.S. Hope you get some run time on it soon to see.
Another poulan taken down with a bad bearings and rod bearing. Seems like something got in this one. See the cake flaky white stuff? :what:
Going to pull crank out of another 260 that lost a fight with a...
Had some time to kill today. I think the main bearing are the same that are used in the husky 372 ( 6202 ) ;) . Is that the same common bearing number?
Just like the PP 330 I tore down the PP 365 dont use a crankcase gasket, only sealant. Sweden made crankshaft ;).
Piston had some...
Didn't want the crankshaft to get freezer burnt waiting so :D
Didnt have any seals on hand. So went ahead and installed crank without seals. Last one I did I installed seals first.
What do you guys think is easier way to do it? I like the idea of no seals in due to not having to worry about...
Didnt think to freeze the crank bearings ahead of time. Sort of a spare of the moment thing. Skwerl knows why ;). Anyhow the crankshaft is in the freezer for the next step.
In and out crankcase bearings. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Put both halves in. Pull one out and used socket to drive out. Put back in oven after cleaned up. Pull other one out drive out with socket. Put back in and pull the first one out and use socket to drive the new bearing in. 2 sockets are...
Redneck crankcase splitter (person with time). Having time on my hands from having walking pneumonia for 6th day. Breathing good enough to get it apart WITHOUT the $55 + $10 shipping oem crankcase splitter. Still going to break down and get one some day. Just rednecking it and no homemade...
For less then $160 you could have a 372xp that cost new now days $800 going again. http://cgi.ebay.com/husqvarna-372xp-372-365-crankcase-crank-case-flywheel-/290508358399?pt=US_Chainsaws&hash=item43a3a5c2ff
Just a few dead ones lately that all run again. Built from piece by piece. Had 2 crankcase halves to start with.
Tree won, found setting on a guys shelf.
Both of them now. Had sound trouble on 362xp video.

Dude that's what chainsaw repair is all about. Bring saws from the dead.
You ought to see the stuff people has brought back from the grave over and over. Your saw will run again, trust me. Heck it was still a young one. We just want to know why and that is hard to do without the saw in your...
Just so you guys check. I bought 2 crankcase halves with new bearings already installed one. They were packed with grease. I removed what I could before assembly of seals and case, then put together and used mix in crankcase and turned by hand till I was satisfied with everything being ready to...
This PP 365 I tore into today that runs but was having issues. Knew it had a air leak and I was guessing seal due to the running on side test. When pulled down you could get crank movement big time by hand clunk clunk back and forth and a little up down movement.
Had cell with me so I snapped a...
Brian if you end up with this saw and get a good crankcase to rebuild for Bill or yourself. Only after you strip it bare to just crank and crankcase left, that way the good parts can be used by you two. I would like to take a look at this bad crankcase to see what going on with it.
I've got...
Thats what I was wondering too. Whatever big hit that broke the oiler may have somehow got to the clutch side crank to somehow make it untrue. :?
OEM crank kits are over $200. I would not use the $60 aftermarket ones JMO. I would look for a donor crankcase. $75-$115 for a used good OEM crankcase.
