SOLD 357xp

[dustinwilt68]

I picked this saw up locally, it would not stay running correctly,I put a new OEM fuel line on it,new fuel and oil caps flippy style OEM and a new Zama carburetor on it, I checked it over and cleaned it. Saw runs strong now, had the Wahlbro HD 199 on it and I will send it with the saw as well, Piston still has the factory machine marks on it and the tank has the factory sticker as well. I would keep it but I just picked up a Dolmar 6100 last week and a 353 yeaterday as well. I know the starter cover has the wrong screws in it, I have to go pick them up at the dealer yet, they were out of stock. $400.00. PM with any questions.

You'll have to pry mine from my cold dead hands...

Ran mine exclusively this morning noodling up some red oak rounds into slabs.... not cookies (average log I got 4 4-6'' thick slabs out of with a 20'' BC. Saw didn't want for anything. Seriously thinking of unloading at least 1 ported 70cc saw and maybe both ported 50cc saws. Since my ported 288 primarily wears a 24 Cannon, and Ive ran a 18'' on a ported 359 I had back in the day, I think I could eliminate/ reduce the 50 and 70cc saws and have a 60 do both duties.

I am not good at redusing. I have 8 right now and dnt WANT to part with any. But I have a new 562XP and a Dolmar 6100 too. Tough choices. Love the flippy caps on the 357xp too, look awesome.

 

[dustinwilt68]

No longer for sale, you guys talked me out of it. Thanks, I think.

 

[bryanr2]

Whew, that was a close one. Get that 357xp ported and it might change how you look at your entire lineup.

Funny thin, I have an appointment with mastermind for March the 6th, trying to decide what to send.

 

[P.M.P.]

What flippys on a Husky thought that was a stihl kind of thing

 

[dustinwilt68]

The new style, same screw type as usual but they flip, check out the new 562XP it has them, it does not use a trilug style like a stihl, you can use the old type in place of the flippy in the husky if you like.

 

[Wolverine]

I have 7 of those caps on the way...
Well ported 357 = near perfection.

You made the right choice.

Funny thing- going by your sig, your conundrum is addressed right here in this thread. http://opeforum.com/threads/60cc-shoot-out.4009/

 

[dustinwilt68]

I was going to do my 346xp, but now I think it will be 1 of the 60cc saws, not sure which, all 3 are good candidates? Any help would be appreciated. The 562XP is new, maybe 5 min run time, 6100 Ilist more used but runs great, and the 357xp well it just looks and feels right.

Ok since the sale thread is already dead I gotta ask. Ported 357 or ported 359? For those of you who really know and love the models I ask what is your favorite? Or a hybrid ?

 

[huskytime]

Auto tune ported saw is mighty nice... My MMWS 550xp is awesome and the guy I bought it from loved it too until he got his 562xp back from mastermind... I'm a novice compared to all ya'll but I'd send the 562xp.
