       I figured out that a seal driver for a husky 55 and 257 work
       good for the ignition side bearing. And a seal driver for a
       394-3120 works well for the pto side. It is a little smaller
       then I would like but works just fine. The driver for the
       088/880 part number 1127 893 2400. Does not work for either
       side. It is to big around for the ignition side. And the hole in
       the center is not deep enough for the pto side.

       Cool to know and thanks for sharing.
       Of all those 084 I had never had to do seals or crank bearings.
       I think  3 of them had been gone through before all the porting
       though.
       Even the stock one I got from you Adam didnt need them when I
       had it. Were they replaced when it went hotsaw?

       stihl[/member]  maybe he will look in it for you.

       Thanks Cut. Think I will send him a pm and see if we can get the
       ball rolling. Guess it does not matter as the seals are in but
       it  would be nice the have the part numbers stored some where.

       The husky seal drivers above work well for the crank seals not
       the bearings just saw my typing error. Sorry for the bad info.

       Kev, seals in the 084 hotsaw are still fine.   Working on one
       now where the proprietary Stihl seal had backed out or was never
       properly seated. Popped it out with a screwdriver without
       damaging it. Lol.     Gonna try the Husky install as per
       Jmester's idea this weekend

       If it is the pto side Adam just be careful as the driver does
       not go all the way to edge of the seal. I am sure you will be
       fine.
       A little off topic does an 084 respond well to a little more
       timing. Also going to do a mm. Just thinking while it is a part
       might take advantage to make a better running saw.

       Ok, thanks for the heads up.   More advance would be ok if
       you're keeping the saw and realize it puts more heat into the
       piston/cylinder Id leave the ignition alone if your gonna sell
       it.  Reduces the safety margin if a jackass buys it and hammers
       the motor on a long cut with a dull chain!!  Lol

       I had a 084 for several years. Someone had fixed it up.  30" bar
       and .404/.063 chain.
       It was delightful in big wood. Mighty heavy in small wood. Very
       reliable for me.
