chainsaw

Hello all! I am trying to emulate some of the other well known threads in where a person asks for literature about a saw mode, and someone posts material l that would go beyond the normal IPL, service & owners manual. I'm thinking of things like period pictures put out by the company, ads...

I have a used Craftsman 358351702 chainsaw. I opened up the clutch assembly and can see what looks like dark discoloration on the drum and clutch, plus some melted plastic on the chassis ("~12-1 o'clock" as viewed from the saw's right side) and on the chainsaw brake. I removed the excess...

So I got the frayed end of the rope stuck between the piston and cylinder on the exhaust port. Tried pulling cylinder still stuck 288xp saw.

So Ken pulled this one an asked me to list it for him, it's an IEL Model HC, it's definitely got some wear, and the IEL badge is missing, it also has had a dent/hole repaired which can be seen in the photos, The Saw does fire on prime. He's looking to get $125 plus shipping. If you need better...

Ken is selling his NOS Lombard little Lightening variant, had a guy wanting to buy it for 3 months now and he is tired of being jerked around, he would like $250 plus the ride.

Hey guys. Brand new member here. (And fairly inexperienced chainsaw user, too, as you will soon learn by my newb question.) I recently bought a echo cs 800p for chainsaw milling and noticed there is a thin metal x shaped piece on the front of the muffler (held on by hex screws) that covers 2...

I'm trying to figure out what size chain and where could I get a new clutch assembly and chain drive. Any help would be great.

I will buy one or two must be complete 288 with no physical damage. looking to buy.

Hey there, The question to the forum is, for someone with limited chainsaw knowledge, is it worth trying to purchase a used saw, or is the likelihood of making a bad purchase high enough that we should just sink the money into a new one? We've just purchased 3 acres of wooded North West...

I have a husqvarna 350, it's an older saw but it still ran great up until last week. I was cutting some tree limbs at work and the chain popped off the bar. So I put the chain back on just like every other time it had popped off and adjusted the chain tension. When I tried to start it, it...

So over the weekend I filmed a video of using a battery charger and electrolyte solution to remove the rust from my old Homelite C-5 solid nosed bar. I think it done a great job, but I wanted to know what all of the more seasoned vets thought. Enjoy! Part 1 Part 2

Hi I'm just after a bit of help here. I've just bought a 2nd hand stihl MS230 online from interstate and had it posted to me. Upon putting it together (bar and chain on), I noticed there was fuel leaking from the white component pictured next to the carbie. Also it will not start. Would anyone...

Hello everyone. Been looking around for a while but just joined up. I'll apologize ahead of time for the long first post. Ok, so I purchased my first "real" chainsaw (had a ryobi gas and a craftsman electric in the past). I decided on a Stihl 193t. I know some people will say it's not for...

howdy guys. First post but already used the site for a fair number of my problems in the past. I have a small ryobi chainsaw for garden tasks, always worked well, not seen a lot of use really. Over the past few times using it I've noticed the saw feeling very sticky, let me try and explain...

I have a nice ms 460, I would like to order a set of spikes for it, what is common to be used, and also do they all come with the roller chain catch?

Hey everyone. I am trying to fix an old chainsaw, its a old norwegian one called "Jobu 81808".The problem is that it doesnt give a spark. I have tried 2 different spark plugs, ive cleaned the contacts between the flywheel and the stator. I have tested the sparkplug cable, and i have cleaned...

Hey guys/gals first off wanted to say I really enjoy this site and there's a lot of helpful stuff on here. Ok, I just picked up a Mcculloch pro mac 10 10 chainsaw from the 70s from a lady whos dad owned the saw and passed away. One owner saw in great condition cosmetically and mechanically it...

what you got for chain breaker / spinner, I'm into it, want to get into making my own chain and save some money. thanks guys.

Hello all! I just joined because there seems to be a healthy knowledge base here on old chainsaws. I recently was given an old 74 Homelight Super XL Auto by my wife's grandfather. It is in great running condition by the way (if you would like to see pictures just let me know). I have always...
