    Racked up some nice FREE saws today...(partner, Stihl, etc)

    booyaaa!!!

    Got a mint Partner 500, good bar and chain, cranks on 1 pull and idles smooth as silk. 165psi compression, runs smooth up top but runs a touch too lean up top, needs a tuning.

    Got a mint Stihl MS-260. Like new with bar, chain, all covers intact and clean. 60psi compression, and I can see some light to moderate scoring through the plug hole.

    Here is my question, can a Stihl 025 P & C fit up to a MS-260? And still use the MS-260 intake, muffler, and the like?

    Only problem I forsee is the MS-260 has that stupid cylinder sheid with 1 screw in the center...and the 025 doesnt.

    Nope, 025/250 crankcase is a horizontally-split affair and the 260 is a bolt-on cylinder with a vertically-split crankcase.

    Yellow or black 500? Early one or late model? Pics?

    I would toss that 260 or sale it or fix it and sale it and baby that 500 forever.













    I am just joking for the ones that take me serious all the time. Good finds.

    The Partner is a Black model. Lots of yellow, but I think the handle and bar cover are black. It's clean as a whistle, all the stickers are intact as well.

    The Stihl, depending on how much a Jug and slug run...Ill probably rebuild it. Both are 40cc saws, and are both like new.

    I cant get over how smooth the Partner is though!

    I think Ill just get it from Baileys....89.95+S&H for a jug and slug.

    Not a bad deal to get a 450.00 saw for about 125.00 in parts.

    Stihl stuff is WAYYY over priced though.

    If I was going to put $350 into a used $450.00 saw...Id just buy the new saw.


    As I see it...Im going to have a like new 100 dollar saw that would have only been available to me at a price approaching 500 USD NEW.

    I mean the $90 Baileys kit doesnt say STIHL on it...big whoop. Im sure it is fine.
