Any one want a Creamsickle MS290?

I ended up with it but it can't stay here. :msp_unsure: Its been a truck saw so it has some scuffs but nothings gouged or broken on it and its pretty good otherwise. P/C are nice and its 155-160lbs compression. 18" bar with .325 on it.

I can cash out on it or trade for something maybe. Just thought I would throw it out here before I did anything else with it.
...

Mark, are you willng to ship it to Norway :msp_lol:?


Chris what kinda of DA-211 parts do you have?

DA-211 parts: PHO, mostly complete (pistons are seized big time, one broken fin on the flywheel, no clamp for the bar), handlebar, new jugs, new coil, & maybe some other misc parts. Photos would give you better idea of what all is there & condition. I have plenty of photos, but I'll need to load them to Photobucket, or EM them.

140psi, I put it away dry in the fall added fuel today and she fired right up. I was going to make it a little prettier and bump the compression a bit but, every time I run the 7900 this project gets further away. :D

More saws to come...

Still got it....

Mike I believe I have the pic of Mark up in that big oak with an 029/MS290 saved somewhere....:D

I knew that was a mistake letting that one out. :msp_mellow:


THats ok though shows I'll try any of them to find out for myself instead of just letting all the "experts" here just tell me what I will like. LOL

I'm thinking I'll have Eric work his magic on my MS460, but I'd rather he do it with an oem cylinder rather that the NWP on there now. I need an 046/460 cylinder worthy of Eric's ministrations. If a good piston comes with it, great - otherwise I'll probably get a Meteor for it. Have some Stihl parts (064/066, 044/046, 024/026) to trade or green stuff.

I would talk to Eric. I'm quite sure he (as with most builders) will only work on OEM.
