wrong big bore kit for Husky 372xp?

You need to use a suction pump/ mighty vac thing for testing.

 

Thanks, I'll look for one. Looking for a tach too. I know some pistons cut outs are matched up to the cylinder. So I'm guessing I need the same piston for this kit? The stock Xtorq jug isn't that bad. I may try to clean or lightly hone and get a stock piston. Then I can put the oem intake set up back on.

Heading out to cut a pick up load of rounds with my MS260 &Husky 350 now. Would be quicker with the 372, bummer.

 

Id throw an poem piston in the jug or a meteor piston in it and take the BB off. Mastermec said he do sent think that the BB kits get much more performance than OE.

 

I'm going to clean the stock jug and get an oem piston and some sort of brush type hone bit. Putting it back to stock should put me back on the right track. It had plenty of power stock, but my "man card" says always go for more power if available. Plus it was the cheaper route too.
Thanks for all the help everyone.

 

I cant seem to find a 372 XTorq piston and ring set. It looks like they are different than a regular 372 piston. Has any one done this or know who would sell them? I'll call around next week....just didn't see any online. Thanks

 

Experts????where are you.

Try that link, they have ARI ipl for Husky. An old school way to check for air leaks is to let it idle and have the clutch cover and top cover off. Spray a shot of carb cleaner or WD-40 around the intake boot and both sides of the crankshaft. Listen for a pickup in rpms or a drop. Not quite as good as a pressure test but it will usually indicate a gross seal leak.

 

Thanks for the link and I wish I had tried that trick before I blew it up. Another $100 for oem piston and rings. All together with blown bb kit, still half of what shop wanted. I like to give my business to the saw shops to keep them around. But in this case it was to much money, I buy everything from him, and he understood.
Thanks again, new to this forum, great group here!

 

You should be able to buy an poem piston and jug for $300ish I think.

 

Victim of auto correct and not looking it over..

Poem-P =OEM

 

Non Xtorq bb kit on an xtorq is what got me to this point. Im looking for xtorq piston rings and a hone to clean up the original jug.

 

We always know what you mean anyways. Who has time to spell correct when your working and checking your phone every now then.

 

In this case shopping with a 4 month old!!

 

At times that can qualify as work too... but mostly a blessing. They're only little once. Congrats!

 

Thats for sure. He is growing fast

 

PM tlandrum for a price on a new oem kit if you want to go that route. He'll be a bit cheaper than the $300. I would stick to oem whether it be an old style cylinder or the xtorq set up.

 

There's not a meteor for the xtorq cylinder set up yet.
