I'll try and keep this short This 066 came home with me last spring. Im at least the 3rd owner and its been a CS mill saw. Which is what Ide be doing with it. Im told its had a top end replaced. I know its been abused. Sat with fuel over winter(s) and last owner didn't know how to do basic maintenance.
When I brought it home, it had lots of compression and spark, but didn't seem like it was getting fuel. Pulled jug, and its pretty bad. Bottom ring is seized. Ill do the best I can with any questions, but im looking for advice on 1- is it worth dumping $ into
2- what parts should be replaced?
So far Im thinking- top end kit, carb rebuild kit, fuel line, gas filter, vacume line, air filter, bottom seals and bearings and possibly carb boot. Gas/oil caps both leak as well.
3- best source for those parts. Complete kits instead of a ton of individual parts is a plus.
I would like to try and keep it under $200. Im decently mechanically inclined, but this would be first chainsaw rebuild. I know a good machinist if the cylinder is worth saving.
Thanks in advance. Im sure ill have questions if decide to work my way through it.
