You or me? We could work on 10-40 younger Women, old enough to vote, O.K.
But I avoid any previous "rebuilds", silicone don't "hold up".
What is your favorite part of a rebuild?

Favorite part is not having to work on them!
I'm plenty busy keeping my own equipment going that I dont like spending time on other's stuff.
Especially stuff that is a headache.

Favourite part after bringing back the terminally ill?
The first rope pull to confirm a huge increase in compression. Don't need to start the saw, just have enough of it together to build compression and feel the resistance!
My other favourite is getting a saw someone has decided is busted beyond repair to find it is a simple fix to get it running- like a pinched fuel line or clogged spark arrestor mesh........ it happens!

Making a saw in this bad of shape a fine performer once again:
I did it. When through, it ran like it was brand new.

My favorite and most unfavorite part is the initial startup depending on whether it starts and runs or not...I have one right now that I've rebuilt and double checked and it still won't hit a lick...

I like when I get a saw as a project and it has some odd plug it wont run on like a restricor plug or something and you find the proper plug and the saw starts right up and you've added a good saw to the collection or for sale. I bought a Husqvarna 55 it had some odd plug in it I changed it out well the saw started up right up I was like wow this was worth it. the saw was a wreck dirty and oily and I found out the carb was out of tune and the chain spun at a ideal so I replace the clutch spring and the gas cap now I got a solid saw and a nice old classic. But finding a saw with the wrong plug that is way to easy but sometimes we get lucky like that if we invest in saws.
the craftsman poulan woodshark on the other hand I have 3 now about to own a 4th I have yet to get one running right not sure why mabey that's why folks call them throw away saws not sure.
I like working and learning about the history and saws functionality I just like working on any saw I can get my hands on.

The acquisition. Something about scoring a truck full of future fun.
On the Wood Shark, try adjusting the carb to around 3 turns out. I had one like that and it wouldn't run a bit at the regular adjustment.

I even invested 21$ bucks in a new carb oem still the wood shark runs iratic I will try 3 turns on the needle possibley today.thanks palmer jr ill let you no if I have success.
That's the risk we run. When I encounter one of those "impossible missions", I usually list it for parts only as a non-runner and say good bye to it. This is usually a rare occasion for a good brand name, but it happens.
WD, I spoke too soon, went out and decided to give it one more try and it fired right up! I left it overnight with the spark plug out to dry things off and tried starting it without the choke and it fired after a few pulls and a little popping and cracking. I just had to clear it out then adjust the carburetor to get it running decent..

No way, I will lose sleep before it doesn't run.
Oh, I forgot one other "trick" I usually pull. Say a prayer or two before the first few pulls. I also do what Duce suggests: sleep on it a few days before giving up.

I can tell you my least favorite part! When the post office says your parts will be there tomorrow, and when you wake up in the morning and check the tracking number and it is delayed, every freaking time!!!

I find one saw a week and I'm happy. I couldnt imagine bringing home a trunk full of orange.
