Removing and installing a pto seal isn’t that difficult. However, you may have more problems if you have oil in the crankcase/cylinder. That would require a case split to properly fix. I would replace the bearings and seals during assembly.
You could get a higher quality top end as well and have a heck of a saw. $$$, though, and a lot of learning along the way.
Well I have 8 or 9 saws. I have been lucky to buy saws for cheap and do quick fixes to have good running saws (eg. carb, lines, boots, coil, brakes etc.) But this one is full of problems and a money pit. Already changed lines, boots, rebuild carb, AM P&C, but she keeps getting problems Im gonna give up on this one I think lol
