Plastic welded the intake elbow. It’s kinda like tig welding. Worked out for this NLA part.

Tossed an 8 pin on the saw as well. The old 7 has seen better days for sure.

Almost there. Gotta get the tank cleaned up and install a new fuel line and filter in it. All OEM of course.

Doc , whats the allure of these saws ? Are they like a pro model 55? Is the size pretty significant from other models?
They look fairly nice to work on.

Great power to weight ratio. Dependable.

Easy design to work on. They got it right with the 2 and 3 series. Then things went awry IMHO

Finally there. Now to find a bar for it….

 

[drf256]

Deflector should clear w bar on. If not, the BFH will fix it right quick.
