New rings, gaskets and seals

Would anyone happen to know where I can get the parts to freshen up an engine. I have seen where they can be purchased on Ebay overseas, but I also noticed another post where it sounds like they may have been obtained more locally . Maybe even OEM?

Appreciate any information, thanks Neil

The guy from Greece delivers as fast as anywhere locally but skiroule Pete in Ontario has OEM parts. I do not have his email but it is somewhere on this site.

I have emailed and left a message for him, but have not heard back at this point. Would anyone happen to be friends with him that could check to see if he got my messages?
Failing that, are there any other North American sources left for these parts?

cheers neil

I can't help you with Skiroule Pete, but I will say the guy in Greece is very good to buy from and the parts look to be good quality. After all it isn't like a JLO engine was USA built, then I'd be a little leary about overseas stuff. Just my opinion.

Thanks fap67, I might just have to get over my apprehension and bite the bullet.
I'm still hoping to be able to get some numbers from the crank seals as I expect the bearing suppliers should be able to match them up.

cheers neil

If you come up with some seal numbers, please post the info. I have never checked on seals, I've only had to replace one and I had a nos one that I used. Thanks

Thanks a bunch jeffc.
I don't have a Napa in my town but I do have a Car Quest. They cross referenced the Napa part number, but there was only one available at the warehouse so they ordered for me. Will see what I get when I pick them up later today.

I'm going to need a bunch of them as I have been able to find a number of Hus Ski's and engines that haven't run in 20+ years and I can't imagine the seals still being serviceable.

Would you happen to know if the 152 and the 252 seals are the same part numbers?

It looks like a company by the name of Meteor in Greece makes the aftermarket pistons and rings. There are a number of CDN and US companies that carry the Meteor piston product line, but only for specific chainsaw/lawn equipment type engines. So far no luck finding one of these companies that can order the 152 and 252 top ends through their established relationship with Meteor.

Would anyone happen to know the Meteor part numbers for pistons/rings, or gaskets?

cheers neil
