They are just two 026`s and a 025. Will clean them up and get em running, all have real good comp and are complete. Typical of homeowner chainsaws, seldom used, left dirty and seldom if ever serviced. Fuel left in the tanks for years on end finally make fuel lines soft and sticky, carb diaphragms stretch and deteriorate.
So those are the old non release 026 saws? With the top cover they look like o34 flat

Ok from the sound of it when i leaned mine out a bit it sounded to hit about 17.000 stock spec rpm is 15.000. And the o34 stock should run 14.500.

The coil is capable but I never tell anyone how many RPM to set their saws at. Rather tune a saw under load as in cutting wood, use the 4 stroke and cleanup method. What I do to my own personal saws is very different to what I would recommend to others. Safe RPM for 034`s would be in the 13,500 range. I have been running my saws at 15,000 for years but I built them and tune them and would have no one to blame but myself for any dam,age resulting from doing so. As a side note I have not had any damage to date.

20150403_211439.jpg Picked this 029 super up for $100 from the local Stihl dealer. I buy all of his trade-ins. Some so cheap I feel bad about it. What's it worth as you see it. It runs great and has good compression
