Looking for an IPL and shop manual for a still 028 wb, its an older points version. Thanks a mil, Kevin

You are correct, it's an early 028 with points and condenser and the spark is weak, looking to convert to an electronic ignition. I believe 024 ,026, 028, 029, 038,044, 046, 064. 066 ignition will work. Thanks

029 coil Hello people , I'm working on a Stihl 029 with weak spark. I'm looking to convert to an electronic ignition. I think all I need is the coil and the flywheel will work fine, if I'm wrong please chime in. Thanks, Kevin Got things to trade and worthless paper.

Cool saw Ed, you have good luck hunting down cool old saws in great shape. Prayers sent for the wife! Kevin

I've heard mayonaise works great, but I never tried it myself.

There's no reason to take apart a great running saw, the ex really interest me though.

Did you ever pop the jug off that big pioneer to see if anything special was going on in there, or did anybody ever figure out what the ex stands for? Thanks Kevin

There are some good threads on Swedish candles on this site, I'd paste one for you but I can't in this computer. Search ( my Swedish candle) Kevin

Nice saw, it does look like a 455. There is usually a little plate under the clutch cover, but sometimes they fall off. It might be stamped on the bottom of the saw under the handle. It should also say the model under the K&N sticker. Kevin

I've been working 10-12 hour days and I don't have much time to tinker with chainsaws anymore, but I'm still on the hunt for a 655 if somebody has one they would part with. I have a mint P60 with minimal paint loss plus moldy greenbacks I'd trade for a runner. I've got 2 P39s and a PP405 that...

I've got a spare black one off of a 3400 if you haven't found one yet. Shoot me a p.m. if you still need one .

This method works great for mixing spray cans to get your desired color, usually with about 3 cans you can dial in a color preety darn close. Wish I had a decent paint dealer around here. I used farm yellow, a little white, and a touch of key lime green mixed together to get a color that...

You can mix up your own rattle can very easy. Get the best matching color you can find and empty about half of it in a box or something. Then get a few other colors that you can mix to make the color you want. Put the half can in the freezer for 20 minutes to drop the pressure in the can...

I hear you, I'm getting to old and it's way to hot to be digging. I can fix a clutch, but I can't fix my sore back.

It does look like it's gear reduced with a plastic shield to block most of the dirt being thrown at the saw. I'm only looking to dig 6' trenches about 12"s deep close to the house where the dirt is softer and this looks perfect. It looks like they have been making these for a long time and...

Has anybody ever used this saw attachment? I've been doing a lot of trenching lately and read a couple of positive reviews on this thing. Are they available in the USA anywhere or do any New Zealand members know how much these cost? Thanks Kevin Here is the only video I could find...

Congrats all and thanks for putting this on! These are always entertaining and great for helping out a fellow chainsaw nut.

It does sound like an air leak somewhere. Did you fully disassemble the carb and spray carb cleaner in all the Orafices or just put in new gaskets? Does this carb do the same thing on your magnum? Did you seal up that exhaust leak and test again? Did you test the seals?

Don't injure your rotator cuff pounding on that hardwood. We'll have to get a charity running for you if you keep that up.:biggrin:

You should be fine just putting in new gaskets and a good cleaning on the other parts. Don't waste your money on the complete kit.
