Ok I had asked about a saw I was going to look at ,but with the good advice here I decided to pass on it.
I am looking to get an 044 or ms440 to use for bucking up logs.
Well in the meantime my wifes uncle gave me this Stihl 041 Av.
I got it home ,and it is missing the starter guts and the screws are gone holding the starter hosing on.I have no bar for it.I didn't have a good way to crank it over to check the compression.The piston looks a little scored.
I wanted to know if this saw is worth trying to fix or use for parts if I could find another good deal on one?
Or would I be better off just selling it as a parts saw?
So what do you guys think?
