[junkman]

I have never had the cylinder off of my 026 as well, always starts and runs well so never saw the need. All of my other saws have been pieced together out of the junk pile so cylinders were off for inspection/ring at a minimum.

266xpg I have looks original. It's an 80s or early 90s model

I bought my Alpina 700Prof new in about '94. Never had the jug off. Rebuilt the carb once. Gave it a detail cleaning when I replaced the recoil.

If you were wondering what one looks like.

I have one,the p61 western that my grandpa bought new in the late 70's. I have no reason to take it apart it still runs like new, and has 155psi. The carb has been rebuilt once, and I just put a new clutch on it not long ago.

I have 1. The first saw I was ever given still sits unmolested. It a 42cc crapsman that I'd rather not run. Last time I used it, it was pretty hard to start so I figured it needed work. Not worth my time, so it sits. Here's an old pic.

I've got an old craftsman turbo that's never had the jug off. Drilled two big holes in the muff and it woke up pretty good. Needs a new fuel line and filter though.

Ive never had the cylinder off of any of the saws i have now.

HO HO HO

Now that I think about it I have a 34 and two 201's that haven't had the jug off

 

[Onan18]

After thinking about it, the jug has never been off "Da Loaner" either, or any of the Homies (though the jug is going to come off of the 540 soon for inspection/measurement) or the 306A, or the Mac, or my KS 262, man, I am really a slacker!

As a PSP, I pull my cylinder after each tank to make sure the I'm running the right oil and ratio.

I haven't been into Fook Me (the DD 361 clone) yet, my Husky 51 that I bought new in '93, an 026, and an 024. Edit* and an 028

The 51 has never had a part replaced on it, not even a fuel line. Junk gas and oil, I guess

I have my Dad's Stihl 028 he bought new in about 1980. It has never had the jug off and it has done a lot of cutting. It was used for firewood cutting for about 20 years until it wouldn't run anymore. It sat under the bench until I got intrested in repairing chainsaws. Figured out is was the ignition, replaced the points/coil with electronic coil and runs it again. One of my favorite saws to run.

That's crazy, I only pull the muffler every tank to closely look for faint scratches on the piston.

Never had the cylinder off of my 2171 yet bought it new 8 or 9 years ago I think. Also my 461 is a virgin and bought new a year ago or so.

One can never be to careful

I have an MS361 that is bone stock unmolested. It's my "backup" since I now have ported MS261 and MS461. One day, I would like to muffler mod it, but that dang muffler is all sealed up tight and I don't have the skills to cut, weld/braze it.

 

[Stihlsmoking]

Just one 2012 2172w but it's still new.

The only saw I own that has not had the jug off is a minty 365 that i picked up a while back....
Most (all) of my saws have been acquired as "dead, blown up or junk" from dealers in my area...
Have picked up a few "builders" here and there also...
Thinking about selling the 365... so pics will be in the for sale ads soon...
