The 116 Super is actually closer to the 119 than the 116si. The 116 Super and 119 share the same cylinder and piston. Although the 116 Super has an injector style carb it is not the same version as was used on the 116si and 120si. A carb swap on a 116 Super is quite difficult as the choke/start...

Didn't want to get ya'll riled up with pics of the saws that came out of these piles but you asked for it so here ya' go.... To be fair the 044 Arctic was about 70% complete from another couple of finds. These last loads gave me the last of the missing pieces. Jonsered 525, Husqvarna 262XP...

Got these two loads of parts for FREE just before Christmas. Have built seven good saws from it in the last two weeks. Might be one or two left to build with what is left.

I have a chance to buy a new 372 XP (NOS) or a new 372 XP X-Torq. Both are the same price and I can only afford one so which should I buy? I'd appreciate your good or bad feedback on both models. Thanks, Steve

Thanks Derrick. I never figured that this would be an easy find. That's why I posted the WTB listing in this forum. I reckon if one exists out there it will likely be in the hands of someone on this site. I guess I was correct in my thinking because you replied as having one, lol. If you decide...

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes, when the big Husky fired up I knew this was an "I suck deal". FlyinFinn: To clean the saws I start with STP foaming degreaser. This stuff cuts grease, grime and oil really well but does not dull plastic while doing so. I follow this up with a good soak in very...

I got this bunch recently for $75 CDN. The end result after a lot of scrubbing, painting and wrenching is this. BTW, the 2101XP ran right away without any work other than some build up of courage to pull the dang thing over.

Stihl has a new no-spill flexible filler neck spout that fits on the Motomix fuel cans. The Stihl part number is 7010 881 0101. I just picked one up at a dealer in Gorham, ME last week. I believe it will also fit True Fuel and Husqvarna pre-mix fuel cans as well. Steve

I'm looking for an original cardboard carton for a Stihl MS660. Also looking for an original Operator Manual for same saw. Let me know what you have. I'm happy to cover shipping costs and something for your time in sending the items to me. Thanks, Steve

I finally got a couple plates. Thanks, Steve

Don't know how much this qualifies as a "You Suck" but I traded a nice Stihl 034 that was an extra of a pair I had for this very healthy Stihl 044 today. Also got a Jonsereds 520SP (has a 510SP top cover). This 520SP has a great looking P&C, loads of compression and spark. It just needs new...

Be sure to inspect the rubber intake boot carefully before reinstalling it. These boots are a real weak point in the design and are prone to hairline cracks that suck air. Steve

I need an inside bar plate for a Husqvarna 42, 242XP or 246. This part is no longer available from Husqvarna. Anybody have one of these plates that you can live without? Thanks, Steve

Does anybody know of a Walbro or Tillotson carb that will replace the original Zama carb on a 2012 Husqvarna 240 chainsaw? Steve

Thanks for the offer of a proper clutch cover but even a whole bucket of bar nuts wouldn't get me to like this family of chainsaws, lol. Husqvarna should quit producing saws below the 543XP IMHO. Steve

Worth $5 in entertainment value if nothing else :-). Steve

This sucks mostly because these saws REALLY SUCK but here it is anyway. I got this 240E this week for $20. The former owner left ethanol gas in it last fall and gummed up the crappy Zama carburetor pretty good. The P&C is squeaky clean. I think it might have cut two branches in its life. So, one...

I've had several 36 and 41 saws and they all suffer from this issue when I "inherit" them. As someone else posted, the problem is the rubber intake sleeve and the rubber impulse tube seal. When you replace these two pieces use a little bit of high temperature silicone gasket seal on them. This...

No contest! Keep the 372. It's way more durable, pulls waaay harder and sacrifices nothing to the 562. The 372 is the last of the true Husqvarna rock solid models. Steve
