We will take a look at a Husqvarna 455 Rancher chainsaw that came in with a bunch of issues. I'll show you a reason why your chain may be turning at idle and its not the clutch or an air leak. #smallenginerepair

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.
@Timoteurs1014 ай бұрын
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)

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.
@TheGreasyShopRag4 ай бұрын
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.
