Want to Buy 090 top cover

[Jacobgraham123]

I’m looking for an oem 090 top cover in decent shape. Anyone got one they’ll sell?

There's a few different versions, do you have a preference ?

I think that top is to suit the very last 090AV saws?.. I'm pretty sure that version only had the model tag on the air filter cover, whereas earlier saws had two tags and the very early saws had Stihl embossed on the main cover.

Hello Jacob. I have quite a few covers, but unfortunately the only one I have of that very latest style is an aftermarket one. Frankly, I don't condone the knockoff Chinese clone saws and parts, but I got it with a large lot of parts, so here it is if you're interested. I do have earlier options, but not that style.

I’m not a fan of the Chinese parts either, do you have the style with the tag on both the top cover and filter cover?

Probably, but I'll need to dig around. Is it a standard/rigid 090?

Yes

 

[Jacobgraham123]

@NewToStihl any idea how much you’d want for one if you have one?

Yes

So your saw is a non AV saw?

If you can, try to find the correct covers for your saw, original era covers will help its resale value.

That’s what I’d like to do I’ll get the part number off of the broken cover I have and maybe that will help narrow down which one I need

Sorry for the long delay Jacob. Unfortunately I only have one cover set of that vintage, and it’s tagged 090AV, which I’ll build for it. Good luck!
