Thanks a bunch. I think i mightve caught a chainsaw bug and was considering buying this one to mess with. I was just given an 038 magnum and got it running and think i might keep riding this train. any thoughts on the 032?032

Yeah, im liking the 038. Anything i should watch for if I go take a look at it?It won't hold a candle to your 038 Magnum, ignition parts are getting tough to find.

The guy says it runs but needs the carburetor cleaned. This saw would mostly be something for me to sink time and money into.It all depends on what you are wanting to do with it and the price. That old of a saw will likely need all the rubber components such as AV mounts, impulse hose, fuel line and filter, intake replaced. If it doesn't run, it isn't worth much at all around here.
What would you consider cheap if it runs?Back in their day, the 032 was a very popular and well liked little saw.
They’re still a good little firewood/homeowner saw to have around as a backup, IF you get it dirt cheap.
If the tag on the top cover only reads 032AV, it should be points ignition.
If it’s electronic it’ll probably read 032Av Electronic, and may also say Quick Stop, which is just referring to the chain brake.
By no means would I recommend one as a primary saw.
But if gotten cheap, and decent shape, they’re a nice little classic saw to tinker with and add to your collection.
