I had ask in the carb thread = I hope you are the one that bought the HT7 for $50 in the link I sent you. Yes Torx IF it is the carb I sent info on it was fully adjustable. #Post#: 5694-------------------------------------------------- Re: Stihl 084 AV dies at idle By: mike84c Date: December 20, 2011, 3:43 pm --------------------------------------------------------- yea, it is, in fact it was pointed out to me by one of the forum members on ebay. Installed it, spent about 10 minutes dialing it in, and cut with it for an hour today, ended up about 1-1/8 out on high needle, and 1 turn out on low. Idles smoothly, runs good again. Glad to have it back together, instead of in a couple of boxes, as I'm sure you can all relate. #Post#: 5697-------------------------------------------------- Re: Stihl 084 AV dies at idle By: Gatekeeper Date: December 20, 2011, 5:28 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Glad to hear it's running good now. Carb problems can be really irritating. #Post#: 22749-------------------------------------------------- 084 crank By: Old Iron Logging Date: August 25, 2013, 6:50 am --------------------------------------------------------- Will a 088 crank work in a 084? #Post#: 22750-------------------------------------------------- Re: 084 crank By: Chainsawrepair Date: August 25, 2013, 7:45 am --------------------------------------------------------- I remember a thread on this on the original RS's back in the day. Off memory they dont so I searched. Jacob J says. The cranks from the 088/880 and the 084 are not interchangeable. There's considerable differences in the stub shaft diameters and flywheel side tapers. It's not even feasible for a good machinist. The 088/880 crank is not compatible with the 084 case halves. It's wider than the 084 crank and uses a different sized seal on the flywheel side. ***************************************************** (DIR) Previous Page (DIR) Next Page
