Okay, I have a Husqvarna 55 closed port chainsaw for sale. It has the decompression valve, and has the +++++ on it. I could try to sell it locally, but you guys would appreciate it more on here. I would like to get $225, but I'm open to offers! I would keep it, but I have a 44 and a soon to be 262, and this just doesn't fit. It has a Rancher starter cover on it. It has over 150# of compression. I took it apart earlier, and fixed up the cylinder. I've run it since, and it runs fine, however it could probably use a piston and ring. I might be able to work it out for a new Husky 18in bar .325 to go with it. So if you're interested, just let me know!

I got a lot of projects calling! Anybody interested?!
I am interested in talking do you still have it
 
Sorry, guys, I meant to put I was open to offers after the price! I thought I had put it there! I'll add it! I like to put my price a little high, so I can come down some!

I am interested in talking do you still have it
I do still have it. If you PM me an offer, I'll get back with you!
 
Would I do better, to replace the piston and raise the price $50? I thought a closed port would go faster?!
 
I think with stuff like this, its good to have pics of cylinder while its apart if you plan to sell. a cylinder that poops out makes a very good firewood saw into a more expensive proposition than most people may want. BTW, got your grinder yet??:cheers:
 
No, the mail doesn't run until 11-11:30, so I should get it then if it is what they say! This saw is one I've used for my own firewood cutting, so I know it can be trusted. I guess I'll have to tear it down again. It doesn't take much on these saws though!

Things will sell much better if as much of the unknowns are "known". When it is said "it could probably use a piston and ring", it creates an unknown. Pictures are worth a thousand words. ;)
 
Okay, haven't had a chance to do much with saws lately, but it has rained last couple days! I'll attach a pic of the piston thought the exhaust side. It is just slightly discolored. I'll also try to upload a video of it running a little later. I don't have a bar or chain for it, as I just sold it on another saw!
