I picked up a parts saw today, brought it home and, wouldn't you know it, the thing has points ignition. Guess I'll take it back and try to get a refund. It hadn't occurred to me that some of these we points and some were solid state.

That's the first 750 I've noticed that appears is stock with the fully enclosed style of muffler cover that came on the 650s. Does it look original Fraser? Nice saw btw.

When i got all 4 of my Super 650 and 750's they all had the same type of muffler and guard what i see missing is the lower handle brace

Use the points coil with a Nova module.

Nice! Is that the 750 we talked about, or a different saw?
I would do that if this was a high dollar saw but I really don't want to get hardly any money in this saw. I think a running EZ doesn't bring much more than 50 dollars on ebay. I'm working on the Super 2 right now..I had to put it in an XL case since the Super 2 was so banged up.
I'd thought about using a Nova but the saw is so compact I don't know if there's room for it.

I know from my walbro book that the early 750 came with the bigger wb carb, not the wb2, but wb4? If I remember right. I'm curious to see if yours has it. With that muffler cover, yours has to be early. Very cool.

I picked up another Super Mini yesterday, along with a Stihl 031. This is my first Stihl since catching CAD. I haven't spent much time with the SM yet but I really like these little saws. They certainly have some snot for their size. Bought for the price of one bog standard chain.
The stihl blows 155 and is pretty complete except for the chain brake components which I'm sure are NLA. Piston looks great, it's hard to see much of the cylinder through the exhaust port on these. It may have a cracked crankcase/oil tank. There is certainly something unusual around that front corner of the case.
As soon as I get my butt in gear I'll put up photos of my Homie crew.

That's interesting. All the 750's I've handled and worked on have had the 'open front' muffler cover and WB2 carburetor.
I may get to run this saw again soon. The owner will bring it when we go cut up a BIG oak near here. He has a 48" Cannon sprocket nose on it now (that's my 33" Windsor on the saw in this picture). I'll get pics and hopefully some video. Will be sometime in the next few weeks...

Of all my 650's and 750's non of the 750's
have the early version of the muffler guard.
But all of my 650's which two are supers
have the early guard. Could this be a 650,
750 thingy where 650's had them and 750's
didn't. Also have two nos early guards.

I've seen a few broken in the same area as well. Thats
why i stocked up on a few nos guards. Got the two early
ones and a few later ones. Not for sale guys.

This is my Super Mini. Great looking P&C after I managed to get the somewhat rusty muffler cap off. This muffler is different from mu others with that cover over the slots. This saw is covered in baked on sawdust. This little sucker blows 170psi. Here are some photos not cleaned up yet - Enjoy
