I've recently "adopted" a neglected Stihl 039. The fella had leaky caps and bent(bowed) bar. Definitely signs of abuse. Made me want to call Chainsaw Protective Services(CPS). I took the tyke in to the doctor for a check up. They didn't x-ray but closely examined the bar studs for "green-stick fractures" caused by the abusive parents when they bent the bar. While under the professional care I had them tweak and tune the carb(HD-5 non-EPA) to compensate for the muffler mods. Kiddo needs to eat well and breath plenty of fresh air to grow up strong. The good news is that his spirit wasn't broken, with 155psi and a clear clean cylinder this fella will have a brighter future and a much better home. We left for home equipped with a new 20" B&C and a 25" B&C for "special occasions".
