Seems going right back to the start on ageing this saw you were about on the money with 1981-82 Sir.
It has the 162 style intake and filter that look in keeping with its overall condition . 1981 SE saws only seem to have that set up then its the 2 bolt plastic intake elbow.
What did you spot from the first pics i put up ,as the plate numbers don't date it from what you mentioned ?

Not much as I remember it - it was the added info that put me on track.

I can understand that. The ones that don't impress me go down the road here as well. I dont think I could let a 266 go though, too damn hard to find here.

I assume they are, on Greenland!

I should meet this guy sometime!

Over here it is TOUGH to find a high-top cover in un-cracked condition as well as any intake elbow. The filters can be found with a little work.

The filters are still available new oem.

Purchased a new 262xp in 1990. Son cut firewood with it through his high school years and I used it a lot. My son went into the U.S. Coast Guard and has been there for 11 years. I sold that 262xp and every time he comes home, I will hear, you should have never sold that saw! So, I purchased this 262xp and gave it the Landmark treatment. Next time he returns home, or we go to see him. It's his.

Nice looking saw. I am sure he will enjoy it and be very surprised.

Looks like another older 262xp - the serial number will tell when it was made.

Good job!

I deal with Ebel's hardware, a great local Husqvarna/Echo dealer. Asked Paul, if it's coil was covered by Husqvarna's lifetime warranty. Told him it was 4420841 and he laughed at me. Just the response I was waiting for. Put a new coil, piston ring, diet coke can base gasket and opened muffler up.

1994 week 42 then - but why not beer can, instead of diet coke?

In 1977 I was involved in an accident that required blood transfusions and received Hepatitis C along with the blood. It has developed into liver damage and I no longer drink any alcohol. Learned about it in 1993, when I donated blood. Hope I never passed it on to anyone. Wife, son and daughter have been tested, all are clear. Thank God! Needed the blood at the time and life goes on. Life has better things to dwell on, wife, children, grandchildren and chainsaws. Thanks for your knowledge.

Told ya I was stubborn. Probably the ugliest saw I've ever built. Not hard to tell it was built from boxes of junk

But man it sounds good [emoji2]
