bought a used 06 husky sm610 couple weeks ago. changed the oil last night, paper filter was fine. but when i went to the left side to clean the metal filter, i found a bunch of small particles on the screen and then when i looked into the hole where the 2 screens are i found this sitting in there. any ideas what it might be from? my first thought was from a timing chain guide? havent looked at the shop manual yet to see what plastic pieces are in the motor/trans.

Can we get a shot of a quarter next to them for size reference? They look huge from the pic?

On the bright side you are that much lighter!

 

[dirtyhucker]

is this where it might have broken off of? or is it the cam chain tentioner material?

 

[Ungarisch]

nope, its epoxy off the flywheel...

cct is all metal, even the cc guides are black..

heres a pic with a quarter in it for size comparison.

Pull your flywheel cover - it'll almost certainly be what dirtyhucker suggested.

I experienced the same thing six months ago:

Quite common apparently but I'm still a little concerned about it!

 

[kmurphy]

took the left side cover and this is what i found. now should i replace it or take that little piece of epoxy off and run it?

 

[dirtyhucker]

oh wow, i didnt know it was just a coating!! whats that epoxy on there for ? elecric insulation of somesort? weird... whose knowledgable of current flow and electric stuff?

 

[restukey]

Yeah, that is kinda weird that it is coated on the side. Mine is chipped a little with smallish pieces of the magnet missing. I never thought of touching it up?

look at the bright side, you cam chain is still healthy
