Pretty good shape other than the typical cracked air cleaner and I'll get some picks up later.

I've been looking it is my buddies saw I cleaned it up and did a little hack job on the air filter over the summer . I was thinking of putting an elbow and air filter set up of a jred 2145 and calling it a Western Jr.

Nice and clean saw, it would be kinda cool to put a elbow and small v-stack on it.

Anyone want a few big old pioneers? 650, 700, and another I'm not sure what it is.
Saws are free but freight to USA is steep at roughly US$180 a saw, based on what it cost me to get two old PM to Canada recently.

Will try to find a local who might want them also, so first in best served.

A part number would be awesome.

Having been unable to find anyone to take the Pioneers nor the remaining PM, and with significant guilt, they went in a dump run to the local refuse depot. Fortunately, the foreman there was delighted to take them off my hands and promised they wouldn't be lost to history, rather he knew a guy. Much to my relief.

Awesome Tony
Hope he has as much fun as i have so far.
The PM's gave me an escape when i needed it this winter.I have had to shelve them for a while. I have a plan for one of them that hopefully will come together in the future.
Right now i have to return to regularly scheduled life.

Standard Magneto is manufacturing the blue Prestolite coils again.

Farmer TEC Husky coil into a Farmsaw.

I wasn't able to fit this one up as nicely as it went into the XL-76 but it seems to start and run OK. My Farmsaw has been sitting since I got it near the beginning of my collecting thing. I had to put a carb kit in it to get it to run. I could use fuel lines as well and maybe seals but....

Here's what it looks like in the saw.

I had to make a spacer and bracket as in the XL-76 swap and this one was required at the 1\8" thick spacer due to an interference with the farmer tec coil PN 95230034266 and the upper coil mount boss on the Farmsaw. The upper left one is just a spacer with a clearance hole for the coil screw. The one on the right required a clearance hole with a countersunk screw into the boss to clear the laminations. The hole to the left of the Phillips screw is tapped for an 8-32 screw.

The coil with he spacers is pushed outboard by 1/8" over the stock blue Prestolite. You can see in this pic how quite a few laminations are outboard of the flywheel magnets.
Not sure of that matters here as the coil produces a nice spark at the plug.

Looking fro the side, the coil clears the auto decomp nicely. I didn't hook up the kill switch wire as the spade connector on the Farmer Tec coil is wider than the one on the Farmsaw. An easy fix.

The lamination to flywheel clearance to the flywheel magnets is higher on the top leg.
Pretty simple to do and a cheap substitute if your blue coil dies.

A little vid of the saw running in the garage because it is crappy outside today.

Thanks to @DSS for the coil!
