If he can't find one I'll look at my dealer this weekend. What other models work?

According to everything I've seen, only the 300.

Keith, heard back from Kris .... he's going to check with his local dealer today.

Between your dealer and his, I hope something show up.

I read on another site there was a recall at one point on the 300 tanks. Also online there is a bare tank c041000200 for $52. Maybe it is welded better than a used one?

So I called my two local Shindaiwa dealers today. Yes, my saw is included in the 1996 recall. To get the FREE tank, I must provide an original bill of sale ....

Help!

P.S. Even though Echo bought Shindaiwa a few years ago (or was it the other way around?) ... you must deal with a Shindaiwa dealer for warranty/recall work; can't go to an Echo guy.

Thanks Keith.

Beginning to look like i'm going to have to pop for a new one from the link you provided. I'd get a parts saw, but don't want to be stuck trying to peddle parts for an uncommon model.

Don't know if you've ever been in a 300S. There's no H/L screws on the carb. It's more like a carb off a dirt bike than what we're used to seeing on saws. Kinda cool.
