So I picked up this old Dolmar, what the hell is it exactly?

I have never seen that clutch configuration on a 120. Could it be for a 6800? Trying to keep these old saws in working order can be tough sometimes. It’s nice to know there are other options. Thanks for the picture.
I'm done caring about this one. It is what it is, a nice running Dolmar saw. I had a nice fella from Belgium or Germany (I forget which) send me a near full CD of Dolmar documents some time back. So much I never looked through them all till now.
More then ever I feel this is a 120SI all but the crankcase ign and clutch which appear to be from a 120/120S. Or you could say its a 120/120S with all the 120SI parts needed to convert it to a injector saw.
That 360 deg 3 shoe clutch shows in the 116/120 IPL but interestingly only shows the spring and washer as service parts. It sure appears to be a better option then the wimpy looking 2 shoe shown for the 120S/ SI and 6000/6800 saws.
Another thing is this will have a new owner one of these days. It don't fit in with what I need to cut wood with and it don't fit with what I collect. Won't be long till tax time and someone will be on it when they can afford it.

That 3 shoe clutch is the newer style. My 117 and 119 has this type clutch. My 120si has the old style 2 shoe clutch and outside coil.
Tag also say 120 made in 1988. Bought this as not running. Injector keeps flooding.
