The problem began with the chain slipping very bad. It would not cut at all. So I am suspecting a clutch problem. I was trying to remove the clutch and following advise to insert some cord into the cylinder and rotate the clutch with a hammer and screw driver. Of course exactly what I feared...

I have a Craftsman 20 inch chain was I bought last year. I'm trying to remove the cylinder head. Everything is loose but the cylinder won't slid off the piston. Is there something I'm missing? It pulls off about an inch but won't slide any further.
