What's on your bench?

Valvoline makes a 85-140 GL-4 gear oil.

Only two of these three hit the bench, a preliminary inspection says the 066 gets a p/v test and a piston, the SP81 "turned over rough", when I got it it was locked up. I pulled the recoil on it and it turns out only the recoil was seized, and once I gapped the coil it spun over smooth as silk. I'll still do a full inspection on it later, though.

I gotta say this, PLEASE call the store and order the stuff instead of doing an online order! Buy Online, Pickup In Store (BOPIS) orders are a royal pain in the ASS most of the time. Heck, look it up yourself and give them the part number if you want but the whole online order stuff is a huge hassle.

I found a stihl ms230c-be thrown in the trash, nearly ready to reassemble.

You may be right. I did order online, was supposedly going to get an email once at the store… no dice. Gonna call my counter guy, Rob and see what he can do.

Picked this orange thing up. Dam_m what have I gone and done??? Seller put gas in and showed it ran.
Only issues that were apparent is 2 of the anti-vibe springs were tweaked, mainly the one by the oil fill cap. I was able to straighten it most of the way. It had weak spark, regapped the coil to flywheel spacing, much improved.
Did a bit of a muffler mod, seems to run OK. Don't have any real run time with this saw, so I'm not sure how much difference it made.

another bench.
I got a shop/garage when we bought this house a year ago. The only reason we got it for the asking price was I told the previous owner to leave any thing behind they didn't want to move; I took 7 4x8' trailers of trash out of the shop.
