Why does it have to be a Stihl? :msp_scared:
For the OP, I am surprised no one suggested this option: That is, if you have been using the 029 for that long, if it is in good shape overall, how about upgrading it to the 039 engine for $100 plus or minus and have more power with essentially the same weight?
The rebuild kit (Asian) can be had for about $75 off the internet or you can acquire an entire engine (complete) for around $120 or so.
This would give the saw you are familiar with a lot more grunt without much investment.
Even if you buy a new saw, you may want to consider this upgrade and keep the 029/039 as a second saw.
Very nice. You will love it trust me. New saw repReady to rock n' roll on some defenseless timber. CAD cured for now. Thanks y'all for the input.
