What are the differences between the 20xx and 21xx jonsered saws? Particularly the 2065 and 2165? They look essentially the same....
The major change between the 2065 and 2165 was the updated crankcase (same as the 371 to 372 update) All of the cosmetics will swap. The open port closed port thing doesn't follow with the 21/20 naming, it is more date of build. Either saw can also have the Walbro or Zama carb (I think, as all of mine came with Walbros). As far as running them goes, mine are the same. Same feel, same power, same look.
What's different with the case? I was way off on that one, I just thought they changed the looks of some of the plastic. That's why you are more in the know than me.

I believe the chain adjuster changed to a side access one on the 2165, but not sure........
I thought the crankcase story was a bit different, and the change just happened to the 71cc saws (2171 and 372xp), and the spare part inventory........
..but I have been wrong before.....
....
My Ipl's show the same part number for the 2165 and 2171, but i will have to take a look at some saws to be sure.
