Picked up two Stihl 044's powerheads, complete, pistons look great, both seem tight but haven't tried to start yet, one has the bigger and better airfilter system on it. Also picket up a 1200 watt generator almost new, guy said it was seized after it tipped over in his truck without his knowledge and oil ran out, so when he started it, it seized. Well took the top off dumped some penetrating lube in waited about an hour or so than put a socket on the flywhell nut, the piston moved with only about 5lbs of torque on the socket handle and no apparent damage to sleeve or piston. Here's the great part, paid 50 bucks for gen: and 100 ea for 044's. Man gotta love this. Going to get a Pioneer P39 for 75 bucks on Thursday. I'm in heaven.
