Some time back a local guy brought in this MS210, I'm pretty sure the damage was a result of being flooded badly and trying to pull it over.
I put an low cost AM kit in it and the saw works well for his purposes.
The problem now is that the inner spring on the EZ start system comes out of the seat in the housing. This was happening before, but I reformed the hook on the end and it held up O.K. since October but he brought it back yesterday with the same issue.
I reformed the hook again, and applied a little redneckery heat treat and have it working again. Looking on line I only find the entire spring/housing available, and at $50 + that piece costs almost as much as the short block I put in.
The IPL does not list the spring separately, does anyone know if in fact that spring can be purchased individually?
Thanks,
Mark
