Stihl 048 Rescue...

[bulletpruf]

That’s a nice 048 kinda want to get one of mine going now guy came by awhile back and dropped an 042 so I’d you need or want a spare switch lever I’ll send you one. From what I’ve been reading the cylinder with better timing and bigger carb was the 048 super.

Sending you a PM - Thanks!!!

Pretty cool seeing an old dog live to fight another day.

These older saws can be a challenge finding parts and it seems the story of my life I end up with them .In addition to the two 048's I have is also an 042 .The brake assembly was missing .Then out of no where at a GTG at Bill Poors' near Columbus Ohio "Stihl Boy ", Fred showed up with the bones of one with a complete assembly .Must have taken me 10 years to find it but it is complete now .---another shelf queen .
