044 in the future

[lwhaples]

I picked up part of an 044 a while back for $20. Almost not enough to bother with. Today I picked up some goodies for it. The first carb I grabbed fit the 064. Lucky to find another that is for the 044.This was at a Jonsered dealer.

Hey Larry, I'm not super familiar with the 044/440, but FWIW I'm pretty sure non flippy cap tank handles are really hard to come by. If that is a non flippy cap handle you might be money ahead to sell it and buy a flippy cap handle to match your case.

Yea,I'm starting find out I have some learning to do about what I have and what I need for it.The gas cap in the pic fits the tank.Screw on cap.

I'm in the process of building 2 right now. One of the easiest saws to work on.

Not sure why someone doesn't make an 044 screw cap tank handle as they were a weak area on the 044. They're made of unobtanium and thus there's lots of 044s with a flippy gas tank cap. The HORROR!!

There were all kinds of 044's. I am looking for a 10mm to build. I used up most of my 044 parts so I'll be looking for a donor saw. They keep there value pretty good and like rolltide said they are pretty easy to work on. They are nice running saws to IMO.

I have a couple of 10mm cranks and one 10mm Mahle cylinder if you end up finding a carcass.

The crankcase and cylinder are MS-460. The screw-cap tank is 044. The filter cover next to the crankcase is early style or Arctic style 044. The brake handle looks to be 440 which won't fit the 460 case.

Maybe I should stick to Jonsered. Thanks JJ

 

[trooney]

Thanks JJ. I'm getting to the point where my honey do's are about finished for now and better grab up a project while I can.

The 044 parts along with the ones I ordered will be put on hold for now. I found that a carb I picked up last winter is indeed for a MS460. I also remembered a piston I bought wrong when rebuilding my 2077 Jonsered, was suppose to be an 064.That was a couple years back,funny how things work out.

 

[smokey7]

I love it when parts are ordered and their a mistake and end up being useful for another project

 

[Adirondackstihl]

My minty 10mm full wrap might be up for grabs.
Just sayin.

 

[lwhaples]

Well, the 044 ended up being a 046/460. Still waiting on a couple parts. Stole the Sugi off my 2165.

Not a disapointment there Larry.

Looks great. Nice work

Looks nice. How does it run?

Runs good.Though I haven't cut wood yet.My ported 036 has the same bar and that saw I like.
