SELLING Original Early 064

[markds2]

I found this tidy orginal early 064 on our local auction site recently, I need another 064 as much as I need a tooth ache so I thought I'd list it here where someone who will truly appreciate it might pick it up. I thought I'd document a few of the very early 1122 features that differ from the later models as well. From what I can see this is a relitively low hour saw with a few cosmetic chips and scuffs consistent with a saw that is at least 35 years old. Price is $775USD PHO including freight to the lower 48.

You will see immediately that I have put new dogs and a roller chain catcher on, the saw didn't come with dogs (to me) but I believe these saws came with an aluminium chain catcher mounted to the bottom inner dog screw. I don't personally like that style of chain catcher as they tend to clog badly when noodling. It also came with a spur sprocket, I have upgraded it to rim drive with a good secondhand drum I had lying around. Another thing to note is these early saws came with a chain brake mechanisim cover with only three fixing screws not four like the later saws. The top cover is also held in plce with M4 screws (including the one you can see below just in front of the top handle) not M5 like on the later saws.

The clutch is also unique, with inner steel flanges over the springs rather than the large domed flat washer you typically slip over the crank beind the clutch:

 

[markds2]

The side cover has a different hard white plastic chip deflector rather than the black rubber deflector on later saws:

 

[markds2]

I also put a new OEM starter rope rotor and pawls in it while I was in there:

 

[markds2]

The coil I believe is the favoured unlimited 1122 400 1300 "dogleg" Bosch:

 

[markds2]

The carby is a very early Walbro WJ6X without the compensator connected to the air filter:

The saw also has the very early carb boot which has large steel flange and gasket between it and the carb:

 

[markds2]

Serial # if it is useful for anyone:

 

[markds2]

It also has the orginal very early Stihl HD airfilter:

 

[markds2]

The fuel and oil caps are the early low profile style with fine knurled grips:

 

[markds2]

I can't see whether the cylinder is Mahle or KS (without taking the cylinder off - which I'd rather not do) but the piston is in beautiful shape, showing very little wear. I timed the cylinder as well and it comes out at a very nice 101 Exhaust, 123 Transfers and 73 intake. Compression is substantial at nearly 170psi

 

[markds2]

I'm not sure if this is the orginal fuel filter, but I haven't ever seen a Stihl one like it before, nevertheless I replaced it with a new orange Stihl filter along with a new NGK BPMR7A sparkplug

 

[markds2]

A few more money shots, note that the fuel tank is solid white, not translucent like the later saws:

 

[markds2]

I tested the saw this afternoon in hardwood and it runs like stink, almost reluctant to let it go!

Buy with confidence, I've been around for while and there might be one or two who can vouch for me.

 

[drf256]

I’ll vouch for Mark’s honesty and integrity. Buy with confidence.

2nd that. As the 'go to guy' down under fir all things saws, not to mention ported ones, proceed with confidence

Has all the right things for an early 064, dogleg coil, 1125 clutch cover, wj6, even the the lead wire looks original. Only thing changed is the muffler and worm gear:

Thanks Mark, interesting you point up the muffler, the one that came on the saw is a very early style muffler, but it appears to be off an 066 as it is the deeper version and had spacers between it and the cases along with long M5 cap screws. I presumed this was wrong and found a good (shallower) 064 muffler, which as you say is off a later saw. The original setup will be thrown in with the saw if the purchaser is keen. As for the oil pump drive, what did the original look like?

Thanks Wayne! Doing really good thanks, and I hope you are too. Trust the 266 is running well?
