:-[ :-[ :-[ Hi got the bad news saturday, my stihl (1981) 028 (sn 8682727)has the old type chain sprocket. (not the drum type) it is about the size of a silver dollar and has a 7 tooth star on the front and 2 lugs on the back. stihl says NLA SORRY... does any one know where i can get a new, or like new used sprocket.
runs like new what a shame to go this way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks

This link http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=stihl++028+sprocket&category0= (http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=stihl++028+sprocket&category0=) will get you an ebay page, there's a few on there. If you aren't 100% sure it's the right one, use the 'ask seller a question' tab. Returns are a pain for both parties.
BOTH REFERALS WERE FOR THE HUB TYPE SPROCKET, MY SPROCKET IS NOT ATTACHED TO A HUB/CLUTCH DRUM JUST HAS TWO DRIVEBARS ON BACK THAT FITS INTO A RECEIVER ON THE END OF THE CRANKSHAFT.
THANKS.....
If you can't locate one you might consider taking it to a high school with a machine shop as a last resort and ask the shop teacher to have a student make it a project.
Any shop can reproduce it but the cost would be on the high side although you can always get an estimate.
Looks like we have 2 new members.Welcome to the forum mainewoodcuttah and jakell2010.You will like it here.
That ebay link I posted, email any of those dealers, they may just have one that isn't listed. I've bought from Saw Salvage, CheapStihlparts, & others. If you do a little 'digging' one will turn up -
What you are talking about is a replacable spur type .The 038 used them as well as the 042 .You can replace that thing with a one piece which is part number118-640-2001.If you do though you need oiler gear 118-642-1506 because the old one won't work on the one piece spur .
That replacable spur is number118-642-1205 in case you might find one .
;Dthanks for all the responces finally found a dealer in pennsylvania that knows his stuff. the whole kit and kaboodle to change it over is stihl p/n 1128/007/1029
bout fourty dollars kit includes new clutch cover with sprocket, new oil gear and a cover to hide the whole thing. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) watch out trees!!!!!!!!
Good for you .
In dealing with older stuff you will find that if you look hard enough there are repair parts . It does though become a challange at times .
Then there are a few of us that just got disqusted looking for the Proverbial needle in the haystack and make our own parts but that is an entirely different subject alltogether .
Oregon also sells a complete kit to replace the parts down to the oiler drive as well.
