It is clear that you and the 115 will have conflicting personalities.
To cure, you need to send it to mee ...
:clap:
Nice score!

BTW, Edge and Engine should be able to assist with parts. Good folks over there.
 
You will just love that saw.

I had a 111i given to me by a dealer and after a lot of frustration, I got it going. And it really goes.

The 111 comes with a 15" bar and mine had a .325. I had a spare 18" bar and chain laying around so that is what it has now. There's no problem in the power department.

The chainbrake is two piece,,,, part in the clutch cover,,,, and part on the bottom of the flag mechanism.... the cover part has a a plastic hook on the bottom of the sping that engages it and that holds the brake band open anyways that piece is busted it supposed to keep the brake off when not needed and also makes it possible to install and remve the clutch cove on the outboaed clutch drum,,,, Arghhhhhh,,, it may be tough to find one,,, gonna PM my old buddy Steve (AKA 04ultra) he has bailed me out on a few old Sachs-DOLMAR hard to find parts before will post up some more pics tomorrow when I get up with Will Parris tha Tree Freak and see about getting the clutch off to change the rim sprocket out!!!!!!

Any body know what it came with on chainsize??? .325 or 3/8lo pro???? I figure a 18" 0r 20" bar will work????

Yeah it did fire on the second pull cold,,, then I started it about 5 more times after I cleaned it up and it started on the first pull everytime!!!!!

Great looking saw, the price was even better. I like the color scheme better than that of the little Dolly 100 I've been fixing.

They were mostly 18"

Could have been .325 or .375?

Look on the side of the rim and see what was on it? That most likely is what it always was?
 
With good compression, that saw has enough power to pull a 3/8" X 18" regular chain. Use a 7 pin rim sprocket.

With a 18" X .325 chain, you can run a 8 pin rim sprocket.

You will find that it is a cutting fool . . .
 
The engine is a Sachs

I have a Dolmar 111i Saw and a model airplane engine made from a Dolmar 3.2 ci saw (111/115)

The only difference between the 111 and 115 was the clutch, bar & chain, and the label on the side.
