Hello folks. As much as I am unhappy to do this I have to let go of the sp125c I was building. Bills have piled up and making sure they are paid and feeding the family are more important than a saw. Bought this from a guy I get parts from locally here in north-central Idaho. I've done a fair amount to it and will attempt to list everything the best I can. That being said please ask questions if you got em.
This ended up being a full overhaul. Has new SKF bearings and nos seals. Crank has nos rollers, upper and lower. Rod is in excellent condition as are crank shafts. Piston is original in good condition with nos thin rings. Oil tank and stuffer gaskets are new, dsp valve is nos, spark plug is new. I replaced the old intake boot with a new one made by the Duke. Impulse line is used in good condition. Clutch spring is nos, clutch needle bearing is nos, has a new .404 8 pin sprocket and nos clutch drum. The side clutch cover is in excellent condition! The muffler is in good shape and even has the extended version cover. Gas cap is nos and has a nos duckbill valve. Tank doesn't leak from any of the seams, just is missing a lot of the black paint. Fuel line is original and although intact is a little loose and slightly leaky. Carb is a walbro sdc 20 and has a kit put in and new intake gaskets. Points are original and seemed to still be in good shape. I installed a nos condenser and set the points. The coil is original and seems to be fine. Starter housing is complete and in good shape. I replaced the lower handle a/v mount which was broken with a nos one. Front tank mount is in good shape! I pressure and vacuum tested after finishing and it was air tight and held vacuum perfectly, the needle never budged even a smidgen. Spark was fat and blue and consistent. Manual and auto oilers both work the way they should. Compression with the new rings is very good, you absolutely must use the dsp or you will tear your arm off. I could get the saw to start and run but wouldn't stay running. It would sputter and die like it was starving for fuel. The carb was airtight and didn't leak but may need to be replaced. So, although I've done a lot of work on it it still has a bug that needs worked out. I cleaned the hell out of it and it hasn't been in wood yet. I've sunk a fair bit of money into this but I know I won't get it all back since it isn't in good running shape. I'd like to get st least 1,300 for it though. If I'm too high or even too low please let me know folks. Please ask questions if you got em.
