Ive got a bad crank in my 262xp mahle. I cant find oem or after market (other than farmertech) for a new crank. Is a 257xp crank the same as a 262xp. I saw a decent aftermarket one for sale here in NZ?
@@llewmatthews4828 to my knowledge the crank is the same between the 257 and 262. I didn’t have to do anything to swap to a 262 cylinder. Hope you get it running. Thanks for watching. The 254 has a different crank even though the case is the same
@redtiller1975 thanks. I just found a second hand one online. Hard to fix these old saws up... I love my 262 it's a beast. I got a 365 special and 372xp too. All good saws
Did you have to change the carburetor flange that goes to the cylinder?
Yes the intake block is different. I bought one on eBay

@@llewmatthews4828 Great to hear. The 372XP is on my short list of saws I want to pick up. Good luck rebuilding the 262
