First off, thanks for all the insight guys it is very much appreciated. So a little status update, from all the guys saying that it can be fixed I think I am going to get the saw fixed. However I am going to make it my second saw, I have been tossing the idea around for a few months of upgrading to an xp huskie. Now this is just going to push me to spend the money. As far as having it fixed under warranty, I bought the saw secondhand years back so I'm not sure if it would even be covered I guess I dill have to check it out. eiklj, I can't thank you enough for offering to help me out with getting it fixed, I will start a conversation with you on the side and we can see about getting it done. Luckily I got a little overtime at work today, so I will be able to poney up to go get the new saw. I will keep you guys updated, thanks again.
So I put a new bar and chain on my Huskie 359 saw today and I was out cutting and all of a sudden the saw revved and the chain stopped spinning. I took the cover off the blade and the clutch fell off and I noticed the main drive shaft had sheared off. My question is, is this worth fixing? I myself do not have the ability to do it so I'm looking to have to bring it to a shop.so I thinking a minimum of 200 bucks right there. The saw is about 8 years old and the motor still cranks. To replace with the same saw I priced at the dealer today is 550, any thoughts would be appreciated.
