I just rebuilt a 13hp in a Cox that was much the same, put new rings in, the crank, con rod, cam and everything looked good. Stopped all the smoke but still has that horrid Briggs and Stratton knock at low RPM. I can only put it down to the counter balance weight making the knocking noise as everything else was perfect. Runs and cuts great just hat frustrating knock in the engine.

Good one Steve! you're gonna enjoy that rig. I like that you got the one with all the bits I wish I had on mine. Especially that side mounted fwd / reverse lever - with that low seating position I personally feel it a little difficult to move my leg back to grab reverse so I do most of the cutting fwd. Also mine seems to go slower in reverse than in fwd so I'm keen to find out if yours is slower in rev than fwd. I know my pump is capable of the same speed fwd / rev when it was out on the bench but maybe there are some features built into the linkages to slow down reverse?? Have fun
@bigbird130 Жыл бұрын
I find the reverse peddle a little awkward. I'm thinking of adjusting the peddle to see if that makes a difference. If I do I'll make a video. I think they are designed to go slower in reverse my Husqvarna was the same, the hydro could handle the same speed the the travel of the peddle was restricted. I watched your videos working on the transmission on the bench nice work.

Here also kind esear to buy themes online on a Stihl web page. PS. To a new buyer I surely not recommend buy the cheap Stihl AP battery charger, I pay for mine 50 Euros but is not worth, takes almost 4 hours to charge one AP500S battery, then I end up pay 160 Euros for the charger 500 but it charge same battery in 35 minutes.

I find this saws very confortable and practical to use the downside in my view is the battery technology fails short for this nice simple to use machines.
