The saw is cleaned up, fluids drained, and ready to go.

So what you are saying is you need my address.

So how about a total description of this saw and what has been done to it? It might spur on the contributions. I know most here know some about it but others might not have read the entire thread. Just a thought.

 

[Eccentric]

Here it is. I didn't think the 1/2" chain was cutting like it should. I haven't checked it out yet, but perhpas the rakers just need lowered a little. Also, that 7-pin rim is HUGE. I think it's bigger than a 3/8 9-pin. Teddy, do you know if a 6-pin is made? The .404 chisel chain and a 8-pin rim would likely way outperform this setup. But it's VERY cool to have the option. Besides, 1/2" is what came on the saw new. The important part....she runs perfectly!

Yep. Lower the rakers a little Brad. That's how my McCulloch 650 gear drive was cutting when the rakers were too high. Also needs a couple more feet of bar (and wood)!

2 things that are important here!
You have a obsolete saw (as to the power-speed) and obsolete chain (1/2").
With that said, the 1/2" is the old dinosaur style compared to the .404.
You can see the raker difference as they were set up for different styles of cutting and saws used.
They never made a 6 pin, or at least not Oregon according to my books. Be a bit tight at 6 pin!
.404 chain laid open a couple thousands will really shin compared to every thing else.
Have used 16H (.404 .063) harvester chain right off the reel with the 090G on a 30 hard nose bar before with no issues. But to go longer bar with harvester set rakers would not be recommended.

So i took advantage of the little one being in the highchair eating her breakfast this morning and tallied the payments i have received this week.
I am happy to say we have officially hit the $2000 mark!!!!

Now that the saw is done and we have a great vid up, I am fully expecting my "electronic payment method" to blow up this week!!!!! If you need to snail mail me a payment, please PM me for my address and it needs to be in the mail monday or tuesday (just in case they are slow with delivery)

Oh thank God! Now I don't have to drink down that quart of Amsoil Saber. On the other hand, maybe my insides have some sludge built up and need a good cleaning.

Great to see you're at $2,000 and climbing!

OK guys, "Let's get it on!!!". Time is running out and it's nearly time for this bad boy to be given away! You guys asked for a quick run down on it, so here that is.

I started out with a solid and nearly complete saw. It was in excellent overall condition, but didn't appear to have been started or run in years. Although it's been questioned as to whether or not the 137cc topend was original, everything on the saw looked unmolested and original. All of the cylinder bolts were packed full of dirt, and there were zero marks on the cylinder base or crankcase where a gasket would have been removed. It had not been off in years, if ever. Take that for what it's worth. There's no way to prove it.

Here's what's been done to it.

1. Complete disassembly, all the way down to the crankshaft.
2. Every part cleaned and inspected.
3. All new gaskets for reassembly.
4. New crank seals.
5. New output drive seal.
6. New Caber piston rings.
7. OEM Tillotson carb kit.
8. Original 1/2" drive gear replaced with a custom adapter such that the saw now uses rim sprockets. You pick your choice of guage, ie 3/8, .404, or 1/2".
9. New fuel line.
10. New tank vent.
11. New oil impulse line.
12. New starter rope.
13. Custom CNC handlebar bracket.
14. Broken full wrap handle tig welded and rubber pieces replaced.
15. Rusted out muffler completely restored to like new condition.
16. 36" Duromatic bar.
17. New 1/2", .404, and 3/8 chains included, along with rim sprockets to match. Also a .404 milling chain.

Did I miss anything?

 

[7oaks]

Yeah...It's a 137cc STIHL 090GS!!!!!!!! Rare as they get!

 

[Hank Chinaski]

Needs a bar cover side dawg!
Snap a pic of the other one and I know a guy who has one.

Looks and sounds great!
Except that missing dawg!

I agree entirely! Those are giant spikes, much larger than those on mine.

Brad these should be at your door.

They aren't...................they're on my counter Thanks!

Surely that spiked bumper is the wrong one? Or are you going with a pair of smaller felling dogs now?
Bryce has the big ones to match the one you already have listed on ebay.
