I worked the woods a goodly part of my life but am about aged out for that hard physical job, building houses is easier these days, more of an interior finish installer now. The parts for SD saws are running low for most but with some searching they can be found.
I have heard of people getting them from Germany. I’m not sure how that works. I’m in the USA. The min reason I started all this as because I was milling and I think it over heated and melted the spark plug cap and actually caught fire for a few seconds. I got it put out fast. The only visible damage was the plug cap of course and the pull rope burnt at the handle. I have fixed both of them and I figured I would do a bunch of research and learning while I was cleaning and putting back together. I hope it’s no internal damage.
I finally got it all back together, it started easily and runs good. I fixed the muffler my self. It seems to be running and idling really good. I did not put it under load yet. I’ve been working on some other projects ( building a custom roof top tent and rack for the bed of my truck). I plan to do some milling maybe tomorrow to see how it does under a load. It does have a small gas leak seems like it coming within the carb when I turn it on it’s side in the milling position.
Should do
The 120 Super is a fairly different saw than the 120 si/ super injected, the coils are different on the 120 Super from the 120 Si and the 116Si. Check to see if the coil is under the flywheel or mounted exterior to the flywheel as in the 116 Si and 120 Si.
My bad... I should have read the original post properly
Thank you for your reply. I want to get them both running if possible.
Post # 3728 might be helpful if you have time to check and see where the modules are mounted and if they look alike, a pic would tell me all that was needed if they would swap or not.
Real workhouse, getting it done.
With a square filed chain as well.
