Craftsman Chainsaw Engine

Here is a replacement piston kit for use with handheld lawn and garden equipment engines. The pistons in an engine are essential to transfer combustion power to the various working parts of the machine. Pistons might need to be replaced if they have suffered any sort of damage or corrosion. There are several parts to the system including the piston, rings, wristpin, and circlips. The damage or wear and tear could occur in any of these different parts. When replacing a piston, it is a good idea to replace all of the parts of the kit, not just the part that is having issues. This authentic OEM piston kit is compatible with string trimmers, leaf blowers, hedge trimmers, pole pruners, and edgers. It is sold individually and is compatible with Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, Poulan Pro, and Weed Eater brands. Owners buying a piston kit need to be sure they are getting the right part for their make and model.

A piston ring is a component located between a piston and a cylinder and helps the engine operate correctly. This component maintains gas compression between the cylinder wall and piston, makes lubricating oil to prevent scuffing, transfers heat from the crown of the piston to the cylinder, and prevents the piston from hitting the cylinder wall. There are several signs that a piston ring needs to be replaced. Excessive smoke may come out of the engine, oil may be used more rapidly, and your equipment might have a decreased performance without the power it used to have. If the engine is still in good shape, but the rings have lost their tension, replacing the piston ring is the best solution. Inspecting the cylinder for wear is also important since damaged piston rings can lead to cylinder wear. This piston ring is a genuine OEM product directly from the manufacturer. It comes as an individual part. It can be used on hedge trimmer, leaf blowers, and trimmers from Husqvarna, Weed Eater, and Poulan. Several tools, including a screwdriver and wrenches, might be required to install the replacement part.

This piston is an important part of the internal function of a chainsaw. The piston moves in and out of the cylinder while pushing the connecting rod that turns the crankshaft. Without a functioning piston, the chainsaw will not work. The piston could fail due to natural wear and tear, or it could become damaged because of other issues with the chainsaw. Corrosion could also be a problem. Regardless of what causes the pistons to have problems or to break, owners need to replace them as soon as they see a problem. This is a genuine OEM replacement piston kit. The kit includes a piston, piston pin, piston ring, and two piston pin retainers. The piston kit is only for use with chainsaws. It is compatible with several brands including Husqvarna, Poulan, Poulan Pro, and Craftsman.

This product is the chainsaw's engine cylinder, which holds fuel ignited by the spark plug. It fits into the existing chamber and houses the pistons during use. It is attached to the carburetor for fuel injection. The spark plug is set within it to ignite the fuel. This part has to be screwed securely into place prior to use and requires lubrication for the engine to run smoothly. If the engine suffers from poor fuel ignition, or leaking fuel, the cylinder may be cracked. When installing the new part, a few holes may require a tap to fit each specific machine. Pistons and bolts sold separately. Existing parts should be cleaned prior to use. This OEM replacement part is sourced straight from the manufacturer and works with certain models of Poulan and Husqvarna small engines.

This replacement flywheel assembly for use in chainsaws fits onto the crankshaft. It features magnets along the side that provide an electric charge when the magnets go past the ignition module. The electric charge that is created by the flywheel and ignition module passes to the spark plugs, which spark the air-fuel mix in the cylinder. The metal flywheel could become corroded, which can make parts of it brittle. Over time, the flywheel could also become worn down from natural use, and it might no longer function properly. This would mean that it would be difficult or even impossible to start the chainsaw. When this part fails, owners should replace it right away. The authentic OEM chainsaw flywheel assembly is sold individually. It is made to work with chainsaws, and it is compatible with several different brands including Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, and Poulan Pro.

This piston ring is a genuine Husqvarna part, sold individually. This piston ring can be used as a replacement part in a chainsaw. The purpose of the piston ring in a chainsaw is to seal off the combustion chamber from possible fuel leakages as well as to ensure the proper transfer of heat from the piston into the cylinder.The piston ring might have to be replaced if it suffers from signs of clear damage. This damage could manifest in the form of white or gray smoke pluming from the exhaust, reduced fuel economy, reduced acceleration ability, and overall weakened performance of the appliance. If any of these symptoms occur and are attributable to damaged piston rings, the component should be removed and replaced by this genuine OEM replacement part. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. Always unplug the appliance before performing any kind of repair or replacement. The operator of the appliance should be aware that this component is a genuine OEM replacement part, sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. This piston ring is compatible with the following outdoor appliance brands: Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Poulan.

Combustion engines operate because of the chambers that seal in the tiny explosions caused by fuel, air and a spark. The pistons are part of the process of taking power from those explosions, and the piston rings seal the combustion chamber so that all of the gases created remain inside of the engine's crankcase. This replacement piston ring will ensure that a chainsaw's engine can do that, as well as maintaining the right amount of oil between the piston and the cylinder wall. An OEM replacement part, this piston ring works with Craftsman and Husqvarna chainsaws, among others. It will require a wrench set, screwdriver and a pair of pliers to make the replacement. Sold individually.

Carburetors mix fuel with air to ensure the engine gets just the right amount of combustion. It works when idling and when in operation, and a chainsaw carburetor requires an adapter. This reduces vibration to the carb and isolates heat to help keep the carburetor cool. This carb adapter kit will connect the carburetor to the cylinder and uses a gasket on either side that can fail and require replacement. Because plastic can be used for a carb adapter, it can crack and lead to failure. This OEM carb adapter kit is meant for Craftsman, Poulan and Husqvarna chainsaws, and will work in many different models. Replacing it will require the use of a wrench set, socket set, pliers, and screwdriver. As noted, gaskets may also be needed, but this part is sold individually and includes only the chainsaw carb adapter.

This is a breather assembly that is made for use on many types of lawn and garden equipment. The breather is an important component that helps vent extra air from the crankcase of the engine. If the engine on the equipment is no longer running well, it could be caused by a malfunctioning or broken breather assembly. If this is the case, the part will need to be replaced.Several tools are needed to replace the breather assembly. These include a 7/16th-inch socket, a 3/8th-inch nut drive or socket, a Phillips head screwdriver, a 5/16th-inch nut drive or socket, a 3/8th-inch nut driver or socket, and a pair of pliers. The muffler will need to be removed to gain access to the breather assembly. It can be inspected for damage before being removed. A new part can be installed to get the engine running at its best.This breather assembly is a genuine OEM replacement part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It's sold as an individual component. This assembly is made for use with lawnmowers, chipper shredders, snowblowers, leaf blowers, generators, and pressure washers made by Briggs & Stratton, Cub Cadet, Toro, Craftsman, Lawn-Boy, and Simplicity.
