250-500cc WR360 decompression head

[pointynose]

I just received my new head from Stefan. do any of you guys know if I need to change the head gasket or o-ring when I install this. It was not provided with one so I am assuming I do not.

thanks for any input!

Unless your o-rings are damaged or stretched you don't need to change them.

Enjoy,
Walt

Old thread, I know.

Does anyone of you have any pictures "seen from below" of this decomp head? Since a Victa valve cost au$23, it's pretty tempting to try and build it myself. http://www.outdoorking.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_514_302&products_id=1040

Did the hose connect to the carb?

edit: Found instructions here
The hose is connected to the carb.

I want one of these! If it makes my 360 easier to start, I'm all for that.
Where can I get one of these heads?

I still have my wr360 and I think I'll attempt to fit a victra decomp valve to a spare head. Thing is, a lot of other projects came in the way last time, cars, bikes even a house! But I still want to do it. Edit: Looks like someone already got the same idea and did it http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/wr-360-decomp-head-my-way.33247/ Way to go!

hay just wondering if you guys knew anything about the k750 auto decomp valves for husqvarna chain saw, im trying to fing out more about these as far as i can see it uses a non return valve to crank cases par tnumber is 537 30 65 01

premo hows your decom head going?

 

[2premo]

the head is a back burner item I turned over to my brother, in the process of rebuilding my burned home

that chainsaw auto decompressor is interesting, how do they close it without vacuum, it might be very small but don't know without seeing

 

[juicypips]

ive ordered one, its got a small hose attatchment similar to the victor types that plug into the crank case. i will post pics and results once ive recieved it.

burned house? we are almost flooded in gloucester so opposite end of the spectrum!

 

[2premo]

are you above the water line?
very intrigued with your new decompressor and for you probably the size will fit your current hole size

in 2007 we were flooded, we have had 7million spent on drainage as a city and so far its holding off but the rivers are 2ft below road level and some of the lanes have been deluged for a month or so.

yup the partner k750 decomp is 10mm sparkplug thread. but since the lectron its not as much of a beast to start.
