That's true...a 910 piston will show up more often than a 90.....although I do see used 90 pistons every once in a while on eBay. It's a waiting game there.....might wait a yr and then in one week there are three....lol!

Meteor pistons are good stuff for replacement pistons...rival the OE.

Woohoo picked up this for £200. It’s mint original. Left to gather dust for years. It was dry stored, all rubbers are good. Started 3rd pull on choke. Tuned nicely. Needs a new chisel chain to go with the new bar. Out torques my 357xp and modded 034. Still loses against my ported 038 mag. Sweet and smooth as butter with the AV.

The intake side looks OK........how about the EX side....that is where more of the wear and tear normally occurs. If the EX side looks as good as the intake I'd slap a new set of Caber rings on it and be good to go. Run it like you stole it......probably last forever but then it would also allow you time to find a NOS one.....they do appear from time to time on ebay. I picked up a nice one a while back.....add said it was used and the pics looked good so I sprang the $20.00 for it......when it arrived I was stunned.....it was used but I'm gonna say perhaps two tanks full...machine marks were very much still there.......I measured it against a brand new NOS piston I had and couldn't find any wear at all......they were both the same size code too.


EDIT!!!! I just went back and looked closer at your pics....my bad.....that is the EX side.....I wouldn't fret a bit about running that piston......New Cabers and your in good shape. Again you can keep an eye peeled for a NOS one but get to use the saw now.

Nice score!!!..........in beautiful condition!!! Another nice thing about it is....if you want more OOMPH pretty easy to change it over to a 2071/371....pick up a half dozen cc or so.

So it will be like this 372xp that I also picked up for £210.. not as nice condition but it is in great working order IMG_0688.JPG

Yep.......just waaaay nicer looking!!!!! And I like the ergonomics of the Jonsered better too......the top handle angle and the angle of the starter cord etc.....

Could you show me where to get some Caber rings?
