HD 6421 $50 score.

Been asking about this non runner each time I go to my local HD, finally they sold it to me today for $50. They said it was straight gassed, so I'll tear into it tonight to see.

Pics to follow.

Nice find, I'd love to find a place to get non working saws that wasn't eBay or Craigslist.

Yeah, that looks brand new, nice score.

Heck yes that was a great deal, even replacing the piston, bearings, cylinder, etc with OEM parts you will have next to nothing in that saw.

Lol yeah, I was ready to pay $100 for it (what I paid for the my other 6401 I bought from HD). I have a good bit more in the 7300 parts saw I'm rebuilding.

It's only February but I think it's sufficient to nominate you for the You Suck Of The Year award.

I think you just pegged the suck O meter. Honestly, it looks like the first tank was the one with straight gas. Looks brand new. Keep us updated on progress.

Actually this one is for my dad (well maybe not this one exactly.) Lol

About 50% of his house heat is from wood and he keeps buying crap saws. He recently replaced his sl11 (purchased new in 1971?) with a poulan pro and now a blue max something (2 bars and the saw for $125 or so) from china that can't cut in a straight line.

Fresh gas, popped on the first pull, started and ran on the 4th. Im 99% positive it ever had straight gas through it. It seems like it was just loose cylinder bolts.

The high idle seems off, it wouldn't drop rpm after letting off the trigger. Or the idle is set just really high. I'll **** with it later.

I think I'm going to put the 7300 cylinder on it that I have laying on my bench.
