I’ve had the saw well over 10 years, bought used off ebay from the PNW, likely retired logging saw. Mostly sits and has been neglected but that’s gonna change. A few years ago I let two of my employees use it and it burned up. Don’t know why. Saw shop rebuilt it and it’s mostly sat since. Just got back from same shop for carb kit and other stuff that had dried up and fallen apart from desert heat and ethanol. They forgot to change the shutoff wires, they are shedding their insulation. I’ve decided to do my own work (I do all my own vehicles, other people’s and run a machine and welding shop). Saws seem comparatively easy. Anyway, gonna vac and compression test, all that, but I got to thinking, maybe I should do a heavy maintenance/light rebuild. I’ve found a bunch of screws and little things missing or broken. Making an order from @Spike60, want to see what else I should get. Gonna tear into it more tomorrow. Replace the crank seals and...?
