I made a trip to my favorite Stihl dealer today and we had a look in his backroom "saw graveyard" to see if he could find a few of the parts that I was looking for.
In the midst of the junk was a good looking Husqvarna 250RX clearing saw that appears to have low compression. The story I got wasn't that it was straight gassed, but rather that it was used to death with a landscaping company. He tiold me I could have it if I wanted to give it a shot at fixing. Perhaps a jug & piston will solve the issue and I will gain a great clearing saw for the local snowmobile club.
The only problem I have is that I'm not too familiar with Husky's line up, the Husky dealer here really doesn't carry much in parts at all (doesn't even stock one saw!) and after looking around a bit on the internet, I can find very little so far.
With the help of AS.com, I would like to find an IPL, a spec sheet on the saw, some info on this family of clearing saws (i.e. which models use the same casings, etc.) and determine any common problem areas for this particular model.
Any help would be appreciated.
