I was given a "locked up" 044 on Sunday. It is a 131 serial 12mm saw. It is the one in front, my 10mm 044 behind it needs crank seals. Happily I noticed the issue with that saw right away and did no damage to the saw.
The free saw has an aftermarket jug on it. I thought it would be burnt up, but it turns out it spat a wrist pin retainer clip and locked up on that. I need to go through the saw and see what else is up with it, the fly wheel is missing a fin and the chain brake isn't acting right.
The plastics are nicer on this saw than on my 10mm saw so they may get switched over.
I wonder what cylinder kit I may put on it. My 12mm 044 has a Meteor kit on it and has performed well for the last 4-5 years.
