What's a decent price on a used one of these beasts?

the fire coming out of the carb must be intense

posted this for a few days ago, the one in the middle (42), after she had been crushed by a tree the owner never gave her up, since the ignition part didn't had grounding anymore due that case part was well, hanging in just the rubber antivib lol, he took the kill switch wire, grounded it close to the coil, and to the ignition part.


He used this molested saw until the fuel line was pile rotten and thats where he gave her up. Inside the saw, I found this piston:






After the tree hit her, I think the damage was done to the piston in the crush, and it hang together to the end, the owner got maximum out of this 42

Rotation don't mater in a two stroke but the ignition will
sure be messed up.

It hasn’t happened on a saw for me yet... but I think it’s super cool! Don’t toss that coil...
I want to run a chain backwards!!!!

Maybe that explains all the rear-cutting chains on EBay. They were on to something [emoji13][emoji13]

There are good reasons why Scott and Lee build the mean saws!

Any progress on that Torino?

272 piston cut for 046 jug. This one is for Jack and has to be easy start.

Chamber opened. Gonna get a Husky 390XP decomp valve and possibly a T slot in the Ex port roof after initial start and run.

272 slug is lighter and single thick ringed. Can add fingers if needed.

272 piston vs. 036. Both Meteors.

.040 off top with spiny thing.


.035 from band and chamber cut


Left .100 over top ring.

Looking awesome Al, should be a sweet runner!

Not as cool as Al’s project, working on a 371XP for a friend. He bought this saw new in 98’, never had a problem with it or replaced so much as a fuel filter. He asked me to go through it just because he thought it might be time. Just got everything cleaned last night, working on dirty saws sucks lol.



Bearings feel like they’re rolling on a cheese grater. Good timing for a rebuild.

 

[Cut4fun]

Yay another 60cc project builder. Bought for parts but to nice under the grime.

The big plus is the K041 3/8 60dl bar with replaceable tip. Been NLA for a long time.

Also came with the oregon 76 3/8 chain folks use for lighter race chain chassis and drive links.

Oh and new to me partner bar cover.

 

[XP_Slinger]

Well my friend isn’t sure he wants to invest in his 371 now. Just offered it to me but had to turn him down because of my other projects. I’d like to keep my wife happy for a while lol.

What’s he want for it

 

[XP_Slinger]

Not sure yet, he asked what I would give him for it. If you’re interested I can ask if you’d like.

Edit: spoke too soon, he’s going to go ahead with the rebuild. Good move IMO

No worries my friend. Can’t believe he even thought about not rebuilding it. Not that much investment if all it needs is bearings and seals
