I would of never caught the oiler worm gear issue. That was a great catch Scott. I would have bought new springs for the clutch or a whole new clutch and still had the same problem. hope your boss realizes your value.
Dull chains create that often. Lots of heat is transferred, even if the clutch is not blue. Dull chains make the engine over rev and creates lots of problems. Every time I get a saw on the bench, I look at the chain. Usually, it is a good indicator of what to look for. (Although I could not tell about this one since I watched it on my phone lol)
@@TheGreasyShopRagI was warned when I bought my MS261CM to never let the chain get dull or it would destroy the top end. I think the chains top speed is 14,600 RPM's
Those Guys Bustin a Gut Laughing In The Background About The Revenge of The Greasy Shop Rag Made Me Chuckle Too 😀 I Did The Same Thing With a Chunk of Cardboard I Had A Saw On 😮💨 Good Catch On Those Issues I Usually Just Run That Return Line Over Top The Intake Boot it Sets Behind The Air Filter and Still Out of the Way of The Throttle Linkage 😊😀 Happy Easter Brother 😎👍🏼
Love your channel, ya showed a blooper, nobody else shows the oh *@☆¿ moments. Real world broken equipment, Real world fixes, with the 😮 bloopers. 😂. I still put the chain on backwards, on occasion.
Your videos and the unique approach you take narrating are great Scott. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. It’s very educational and entertaining. I had to laugh at your reaction to the shop rag being sucked in - I rewinded it several times. Love your sense of humour.
Those Chinese "tune up" kits are junk. No name spark plug and a fuel filter that works about as good as wadding up some cheese cloth on the end of the fuel line. Nice and thorough repair Scott. Always enjoy the content.
Ive ran across ALL those issues before...INCLUDING GREASY SHOP RAG!!! 😂EXCEPT mine was the oil hogg towels...you know the ones that are used to absorb all youre general unwanted spilled oil and petro...they DONT absorb clutch covers and drums on chainsaws...and although ive tried them...inadvertently...on 4 different occasions...they STILL dont absorb certain components...well any components that arent absorbable!!! Anywho...thanks again man for the GREAT vids
Do you give these saws a wipe down or something before you start work on them? They just always appear to be cleaner then you'd expect... maybe I just don't spend enough time cleaning up my saw.
I've never wiped a saw down before filming. Nothing is staged because I just hit the play button on the camera and start the repair. Sure I edit parts out when i do blow things clean but thats usually obvious. I think the camera just makes them look cleaner.
Enjoy your videos. Nice catch on the tight oil drive. Drag a rag through under the clutch cover, hmm, a good way to clean it out in there if it made it through!
I used an impact to take clutch off of my 257 to change my rim sprocket and it sheared keyway on my flywheel. Unfortunately it was made into my flywheel and cost me a new one. That was a costly lesson learned. Id done this many times and never had that happen before. From then on ive either used a piston stop or piece of rope and a breaker bar.
Thats unfortunate for sure. I haven't had any problems but have heard stories of people putting holes in pistons with a metal piston stop. If I find a clutch to be really stuck I either remove the flywheel first or use rope as a piston stop.
This is your best video to date ... and I don't even like Huskys .... but I love Tommy Chong. P.S. I hear good reviews of your channel from "Married with small engines."
I realize not everyone is into the same brands of saws and thats why I try to promote some general theory and common practices that apply to all makes of saws. Thanks for watching!
Another great video thank you. Another one I'll download for future reference. I try and get into a routine with every piece of equipment and basically just mirroring your routine. Thank you sir
My routine doesn't cover everything but getd me through 90 percent of my repairs. For example, it would be easy to check fuel tank vents but I rarely do.
I understand but it gives me a great baseline as a beginner to start with. Could you please perform a check on the vents like you were referring to I don't believe I've ever seen you do that. I really appreciate brother. Take care
@@TheGreasyShopRag thank you very much sir. I realize I'm still learning but I want to make sure I give the customer every thing they expect and give it honestly. Have a wonderful Easter weekend sir.
I have a 460 rancher and was under the impression you neededed to press the decompression button every time to start the chainsaw from a cold start. I didn't see you press the decompression button once and you got the chainsaw running by pulling the cord hard and fast to start. So my question is what does the decompression button do?
That button makes it easier for people with less power to pull the cord. It releases compression. I don't use it because they normally start better without its use as long as you can pull it hard enough.
@TheGreasyShopRag I will try your starting technique between the legs and not use the decompression button. Thanks I learned some valuable information watching your videos.

@@alanshaw6161 Ya dull chains will ruin any model saw.
That's one way to clean behind the clutch...LOL Have a Happy Easter....
Happy Easter!
Title sounds like a real cheesy movie. Loved the laughter from the shop homies.
It was a cheesy movie...just a short one 🙂

Ya I guess that line could go either way. Those guys need a good laugh once in a while and it was my day to provide it.
13:25 And now, ladies and gentlemen, for my next trick…
😂🔧👍
One trick was enough.
Lol. Learnt something new about the oiler worm gear bind. Thanks mate.
I'm glad to hear you learned something. Thanks for watching!
Good one Scottster!!! Always nice to get a good laugh out of a repair!
Yep, nobody was hurt, not even my feelings.

Ya I don't claim to be anything more than an average dealer mechanic. Stuff happens.

good tip on the installation of the clutch by pulling the pull cord out a bit
Thanks, and thanks for watching!

Good one Scott. The rag got ya. 🤭
Yes it finally did. Thanks for watching!
That fn shop rag! Good repair! I learned stuff from this vid.
Learning stuff...good deal!
These videos are very helpful.
I'm glad you're enjoying them!

Great job, Scott 👍🏼
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Made me laugh. Just this week I started a push mower. It pulled in a generator foam air cleaner and spit it out. Have a great Easter.
Happy Easter!
I figured the fuel leak but the worm gear deal was a bit different! Thanks for sharing!
I see the worm gear thing often enough that I am always considering it when the chain keeps turning at idle.
Enjoy your videos. Nice catch on the tight oil drive. Drag a rag through under the clutch cover, hmm, a good way to clean it out in there if it made it through!
Ya maybe I need to rev it up more before catching the rag.
Great to see I am not the only one who has that stuff happen. lol. Great video Scott, always learning from your videos. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Very nice video; great presentation!!
Thanks! and Thanks for watching!
Another great video. Informative and definitely entertaining!
I do what I can. Thanks for watching!
Yoinked that towel right off the table
Sure did.
Bless Good video. Poor rag 😢 Thanks 😊
Thanks for watching!
Once again, great job
Thanks again!

It's been a long time since I saw Makati Tools on your bench?
I've got a lot of old videos that have not been edited yet. The Makitas are all gone now.

Is that lithium grease you use on the needle bearing and oiler pinion?
Its a general purpose greas that husqvarna recommends for gear heads and bearings.
@@TheGreasyShopRagI'm a gear head, is it recommended for me? 😄
@@lanceevans688 Lol, I'm gonna let you decide on that.
Box store quality
If you're talking about the saw then yest i'd say its on the upper end of box store quality.
The greasy shop rag will get you once in a while.
Yep, I gotta be more careful where I lay those things.
Im GHay.
