    TEW closes

    I had been using Tulsa Engine Warehouse for at least 5 years. Usually good prices and service. for most of my O-P-E shipping was way more cost effective than the ebay habit... I used the poulan parts look-up a lot to research and to find part compatibility. That was stopped several years ago...

    Plastic saws?

    What is the type of plastic used for, such as , poulan 2150s or my husky 41. The exact type of plastic would be useful. I want to do a seam fix. I have all kinds of solvent based glues, epoxies and heat welding. Also what is the manufacturing process for original factory joints?

    Stihl 028

    Friend gave me his 028 AV SUPER electronic quickstop (label on air filter cover shows 028 AVEQ MAGNUM). 18" .325 74dl-.063. No fix required? He thought it was seized. Blows 150psi and cuts wood. Is "E" for electronic ignition? Is "Q" for the "quick stop" chain brake? What is the expected...
