My CAD has been flaring up this week!

[weeks auto]

First, I want to say thank you to this forum for keeping me motivated to buy as many chainsaws as I can find.

So, I started my CAD filled week on Wed. when I picked up a $50 MS200t that needed a sparkplug repair sleeve and will eventually get a new flywheel. I fixed that thursday and friday evenings, put a new chain on it and played with it a bit yesterday. Then this morning I went and picked up a Generator that I had looked at on Wed and while I was there I looked back through the pile of broken chainsaws and picked out 4 dead MS192tc and a HT131 and HT101. They all had compression, bars and chains. I also found a spare 200t recoil and a clutch cover for a 290. After striking a deal with the guy I asked if he had any running saws he would sell and he said he had been looking at a MS661 to replace his MS660 (now we're talkin). So I followed him out to his work truck and In the back was a pile of saws and a decent lookin MS660 with a 36" bar mounted on it. He gave me a price I couldn't pass on, so I paid the man, loaded my treasure up, hooked up my generator trailer and headed for home. So for the grand total of $570 I ended up with 8 new to me saws in the last 4 days. Time to take a break from my CAD.

The best part is once I got home I spent a few hours working on my new toys and checked the 660 over and it looks real good with a perfect piston and Cylinder, and I also got 3 of the 4 MS192's running.

Wow you suck lol.

 

[Bigmac]

Nice score!!

 

[cgraham1]

My dealer won’t sell used saws... he keeps the good ones for parts and throws the rest away.

 

[weeks auto]

This score was from a tree service, most of the dealers around me won't sell used saws either.

 

[Wonkydonkey]

That’s so cool, you scored well, and that will keep those idle fingers busy.

 

[Time's Standing Stihl]

Nice score! Bring some saws over to the Iowa Gtg next weekend and have some fun. Won't find a gtg any closer!

 

[weeks auto]

I wish I could make it to the GTG but I don't think it is gonna happen. Maybe next year.

 

[Huskygasaxe]

Nice score, do you have to hide saws in the attic as well?

 

[weeks auto]

I might have to start. Now if the wife says anything I just say "this is how many I have always had". Then I get a chuckle and a disgusted look and that buys me a few months.

Hi,
Could you help me? I have a second hand Stihl MS192 TC chainsaw and I don't know if the cylinder mounted on is the original or A MS192 T version. Do you perhaps have or could make a photo of the cylinder from the flywheel side? I need the inscription written below the fins.

Thanks

Hi if I understand you correctly, it should be the same cylinder for the rear handle and the top handle..
I would look on a site that sells both and check part numbers.
Edit look at pics I’ve added there seems to be two types but both fit the rear and top handle

maybe ask @ray benson for a manual/ipl

Check your inbox for an ipl and service manual.

Thanks Wonkydonkey. The Stihl part number for the cylinder is 1137 020 1204 and I'm not looking for it. The thing is that I have a MS192 TC version chainsaw and I was asking Weeks auto if he still has the MS192 TC chainsaws to make me a photo of the cylinder from the flywheel side to help me identify which cylinder is mounted on my chainsaw without dismantling the cylinder itself?

 

[Wonkydonkey]

@mitos . I had a look around when I came back from sailing today. I personally don’t think you will be able to tell which cylinder you have by just looking at two pictures.
But i hope you do.

however there was another thread, I will dig it out for you. it was said that the exhaust groove type has a lower compression while pulling it over unless the non groove type is well worn then it will give the same low compression.
Anyhow here’s the link.

Most saws from a tree service are so beat up that nobody wants to work on them to save them. BTW, CAD is not an attractive expression in my book:

CAD - a man who acts with deliberate disregard for another's feelings or rights.

You have a nice collection of chainsaws, but please be careful when you use this expression. Just MHO.

 

[Matt Ellerbee]

Want your money back on that 200t?

C.A.D., pronounced “see - ayyy - dee” : Chainsaw Acquisition Disorder. Sometimes abbreviated as CAD or cad.

Cad, pronounced “Kad”- a man who acts with deliberate disregard for another’s feelings or rights. Often written as cad.

 

[Wonkydonkey]

@Wood Doctor fyi and just saying..
“Cad” to me is chainsaw Addiction Disease… and is a term used in the chainsaw enthusiasts places like here

but as with most acronyms they can be used in different ways, and everyone’s fav here is
GFY..
Good For You or Go Fùck Yourself.. which is used in a very friendly term in the nsp3 thread.

 

[Wood Doctor]

I fear I have been suffering from Chainsaw Acquisition Disorder for 40 years or more. My 1977 Mac 610 that I bought new can verify that. It still runs today and can occasionally pull a 28" bar and chain.

I recall my high school journalism instructor telling the class that abbreviations are a major bane of the English language. Nowadays we tend to overuse them. Cell phone texting has likely caused a lot of that malady.
