That looks familiar. I'm putting a 288XP together from two partial saws as well.:cheers:

What saw did that crankcase/tank setup come from? The throttle arm looks different than what's on my 288's.

Differences of early and later.......one has the lever type and the other uses a throttle rod.

Thanks for the correction Shawn. I guess I've seen "Frankensaws" that were are sorts of ways.......

I've built a few myself. It sucks getting the 181 throttle arm into a 288 case (you have to enlarge the hole a lot). So I would switch the arm and the throttle shaft in the carb if I had the parts. You can quickly tell a 181 case from the lack of the pin above the left-upper AV mount hole.

That throttle arm needs to be replaced, it binds on the crankcase.
And the carb uses the knub, and not the linkage.
