Sold stihl 441C

[kyle.kipple]

Good running and decent shape for a used saw. Has the typical bruises but the filter cover had the worst of it. Not sure what the hell it is but I was able to use a lil elbow and get some off. More will come off but I gave up.
Compression is 150. Piston looks great with machine marks there is a little bit of blow-by discoloration on the skirt below the rings. The front of the case under the muffler looks like it may have been painted but I really cant tell 100% but figured I should mention. Everything functions as it should.

PHO only 500.00
Ill pay 20.00 towards total shipping costs.
Feel free to ask any questions

That looks like paint transfer on the air filter cover . Carb cleaner or brake clean on a rag should wipe it off easily

I don't believe its paint. It looks like rubber? Kind of like how a burn out on blacktop looks, that's what this puts me in the mind of.

I've got some messed up stuff off with brake clean . Just don't spray it directly on the plastic . Sometimes it will melt it

Shipping to 96743?

Or just some good Ole rubbing compound should take it off as well. Or even toothpaste in a pinch

Looks like butylflex. I use gasoline on that kind of stuff, because the Stihl plastic is designed to resist it. Brake clean is ether, and that will strip the metal paint and dull the plastic. So will lacquer thinner.

Rubbing compound and some mean green is what I used to get some off. I thought about a dab of gas but wasn't sure how it would do with the plastics.

Goof Off (or Goo Gone) work pretty damn well on 99% of the stuff I need to remove and usually won't dull, fade or discolor plastic. But they also do work very well at removing paint from things pretty easily, so don't get it on painted parts unless you want the paint removed. Nice saw overal- GLWS

Methyl Ethel Ketone. Pretty good on some tar like junk removal. Real good with adhesive residue.

We used to use that for near everything when I was in the Air Force... washing hands, benchtops, bombs, greasy parts, etc... well until some hippies made the EPA say it was bad for people... then it became harder to get than bacon in Hadji land.

Home depot sells it.

Probably, but we couldn't just go buy off the shelf stuff like that.

Yes I did while I was asleep. I did see it I was at work and unable to respond at the moment I read. But i did check the shipping to the zip you gave (ouch!).
I had been talking with a gentleman about the saw prior to your P.M. and I honestly forgot to give you a response.

My bad.....
