    NOS Stihl Parts - What to do with them?

    My guess, it would be a full-time job for 2-3 years to sell it a piece at a time, even if you knew what all the parts went to, etc.

    NOS Stihl Parts - What to do with them?

    I was at a warehouse of a friend today, used to be an engine repair shop, and discovered shelf upon shelf of NOS mower, edger, and chainsaw parts. There are many manufacturers' represented, but I naturally focused on the Stihl boxes. First thing out of the box was an NOS 028 muffler, still in...

    The Beg for Manuals Thread

    Power Mac 6 - He kicked it. Now I need a manual and a new GF At the GF's farm yesterday, her brother took me out to the barn to do something. On the floor was a Mac Power Mac 6 in poor condition. I asked him about it and he said it had belonged to his Dad, who died about 12 years ago. Then he...

    Tank Caps for 028 Found an 028AV at the mower repair shop today for $75. But the tank cap was missing. My other 028 has the caps almost hogged out, so I'm looking for 3 caps for the 028s. Have green for trade 'cause I'm out of turtle shells...thanks!

    McCulloch Air Box (Trimmer) A little off-topic, but all my saws are running right now. But, my pesky McCulloch Eager Beaver 282 trimmer needs an air box. Part Number is 224238 - Box, Air (Blk). The note on the IPL says "represents a large black air box". I have some Mac parts, folding green...

    028 - Washer under carb?

    I smooshed my 028 Super under a big hedge tree, and the plastic handle/tank assembly was destroyed. I bought a metal 028 tank/handle assemby from an AS member, but when I started to put the carb on, I noticed that the metal tank/handle assembly does not have the recess where the large washer...

    How do you store your chains?

    Great Ideas.. Wow, these are some great ideas. Put a few chains in the plastic storage containers today and it's a pretty good way to go. If it wasn't snowing so hard and windy, I'd go take some pictures. Tomorrow...but good ideas all 'round. Thanks..

    How do you store your chains?

    Back from Big Lots. Bought a 5-pack ($2.00) of Rubbermaid Take-Alongs, sandwich size. Snap lid. These will probably hold 2 20" chains comfortably, but won't fit in the saw cases (most of them). Also bought 3-pack ($1.80) of Ziploc Twist'n Loc round containers. Screw top lid, and more sturdy than...

    How do you store your chains?

    That's a good suggestion. I have a Big Lots next door. Excuse me.....

    How do you store your chains?

    Thanks, that's kinda how I've been doing it. Since I now have 13 running saws, and each has its saw box or case, those baggies always find themselves under the saw or hiding under my gloves. I envision a plastic box a bit bigger than a cigarette box, with a place for a business card-sized card...

    How do you store your chains?

    Now that I've contracted CAD chronically, I can't seem to keep track of chains. I tried Baggies with Sharpee written on them, but they don't last long, especially in the bottom of the saw box(s). Is there a box/carrying case for chains (or bars, or bars and chains) that you can stack or put in a...

    Nik's Poulan Thread

    I'm glad someone has some cross references. If you'd be so kind, I'd sure appreciate any cross reference to Poulan on these two: Craftsman 3.3 CI (Model 358.356332) (I have no idea on this one) Craftsman 3.7 CI (Model 358.356090) (USFS said Poulan 3600, but I'm sure you have better data)

    Certainly didn't intend to say the data was perfect or accurate, only a resource. Since you found it worthless, if you have a better or more accurate cross-reference, it seems a lot of folks would appreciate you posting it. Thanks in advance...

    Never thought about selling something that I find out in the pasture and paint up. Usually make a possible bag if I find the bottom shells (didn't on this one). Rather trade for parts or parts of saws....if you have something Stihl, I'd be happy to throw in some $$ and make one to your ideas or...

    028 Handle/Tank The handle on my 028 Super gave way today, right in the middle of nice walnut tree. I guess my "repair" didn't last as long as I thought it would. Anyway, need a rear handle/tank for an 028. I have a painted turtle shell to trade (see attachments). I haven't added colors to...

    Nik's Poulan Thread

    OK, sorry. I guess I don't know how to paste a link, or perhaps my browser just doesn't like me. At any rate, just Google "Spark Arrester Guide" (note the spelling), and you should see a .pdf file for Volume 2. It's almost 16g, so a very large file. But very worth it...

    Cross Reference Poulan to Sears Craftsman This is in the public domain, so there is no issue with sharing the link. The US Forest Service publishes a document called the Spark Arrester Guide, which tells what spark arresters are approved in national forests. But lo and behold, they list Sears...

    Tommy, running down Crafstman info is pretty tough, but the parts lists are available if you can get the model number from the saw. Look for a 358.XXXXXXX-type number (for Poulan saws). With that, I believe we can find the IPL. Service manual, maybe or maybe not. Operator's manual, very likely...
