Here's a Real Gent

$300 saw for $175, but without the bar and chain, and it is not running right, because it probably has some kind of air leak that he is not sure of but is sure that it is easy to fix, and he has already taken it to his dealer to get a quote, and already looked at some of the parts he (maybe) might need to fix it, but is only making this sacrifice because his wife is making him sell it instead of doing the easy fix himself on one of the best machines he has ever owned, and he is firm on his price, and is not willing to do anything for a potential sucker, I mean buyer.

Hurry up! First person with cash takes it!

Stihl 025 MS250 Chain Saw - $175

I hate to sell this but my wife won't let me fix it. Says I have too many projects and need to spend a little more time with the kids. Come get it before I find time to dig in. This is one of the best machines I've ever owned but as of a week ago it no longer wants to idle. The saw starts and runs good at full throttle.

I asked the Stihl dealer to diagnose it. Below is what they found:
1) Good compression. 135 psi. No sign of any scoring or mechanical damage.
2) Fuel system was pressure tested and checked out good.
3) The saw won't pump fuel at idle. It has an air leak.

An air leak? My 025 has never been apart, its never been blown up, and its never been crashed. I bought this new and always mixed the oil rich. The problem is likely a crack in the rubber manifold between the carb and the engine or a worn crank seal. I researched this a bit. Both the manifold and the seal are available from sources on line for $15-20 each. A crank seal can be installed without taking the engine apart. Press it in from the outside of the case. The correct seal for doing this is Stihl part number 96380031581. The manifold is likely an easier swap. Guessing this would be a wise 2-3 hour repair effort if someone has mechanical skills and a little time. The saw is together as pictured below and you can hear it run!

I am firm at $175 and this price does NOT include the new bar and chain pictured. First person with cash in hand takes it home. Sorry but I will not hold it with promises to buy.

Properly cut and split firewood is to be in 16 inch lengths. When achieving this length often there will be end pieces or lengths of wood in 4 - 12 inch lengths which we have named "SECONDS".

These "SECONDS" are still great firewood just not the "picture perfect" 16 inch lengths.
We have repeat customers that specifically request "SECONDS" due to the amount of wood received for the great value in price.
Our "Seconds" firewood is also perfect for firepits, bonfires and wood burning stoves as often the size is smaller and more managable.

Our "SECONDS" are hardwoods consisting of Maple, Locust, Oak, Elm, Birch, Ash and Cherry.

"SECONDS"
Face Cord (8ft long, 4ft high, by 4-12 inches wide) - $90.00
Half Cord (12ft long, 4ft high, by 4-12 inches wide) - $110.00
Full Cord (24ft long, 4ft high, by 4-12 inches wide) - $160.00

fresh cut apple wood for smoking

I cut down my Red delicious apple tree this past winter and am chunking it for sale. You will get a 5 gallon bucket of clean cut chunks for $50. still sticky from sap! and smells so sweet. I use a clean electric saw to sut these chunks to keep the wood free of oil and debris, not a nasty chain saw

I also have apple wood sawdust $15 for a coffee can full, want a strong smoke taste? Doing jerky or a brisket? sawdust it the only way to get that taste.



I like the part about the electric chainsaw. No oil or other chainsaw stuff to contaminate this great overpriced wood. Me thinks even a electric chainsaw uses bar oil????
