Sold Husqvarna T540xp

[chipper1]

Here you guys go, as the title says 540xp.
Here's the story, I just picked up another one and I already have another, if the story is hard to follow I'll show my work. 2+1=3(540's) and I'd like to reduce that by one at this point but may list another too, we'll see.
The saw has done everything I've asked it to do. I bought it used and used it on a few removals last year and doing a little work around the house.
It has a slightly loose wrap handle where it goes into the top handle. I think it just needs to be tightened. I planned on tightening it when I was replacing the switch at the auto return on the switch does not work, seems the spring inside is missing, maybe there is a writeup on it. Sure I could fix it, but then I wouldn't be able to keep the price as reasonable as time is money.
I need to get 200 PHO plus shipping.
Pictures coming in a few.

Just remembered getting the pictures that the recoil handle is non oe, and the recoil cord was replaced also with non oe.
Fuel was drained last fall so I will fire it up tomorrow and run it a bit.

Must be the “dirty” stepchild, they’re the first ones to get the boot, while the other two are basking on the counter

Your right it is pretty dirty, sorry that, the good thing is it's clean chips and oil .
I was thinking about you last night watching a movie with my wife, ironic you made the first post in here , sure you "can" guess which one.

It is easier than cleaning them Wayne lol.

Someone is getting things figured out .

 

[chipper1]

Well you guys were to slow lol.
I pulled the handle apart and used the one off one of my other saws, I also tightened up the wrap handle, it was just loose as suspected.
New price 225 PHO, or 250 with an Oregon bar and chain.
I may clean it this week if I get a minute, price will be adjusted accordingly if I do.

Did you get the switch working?

That switch is easy to replace. A lot easier than replacing an impulse line on a Stihl 026. Buy it before the price goes up.

I did swap the switch out with one from another 540, works as is should and the handle has been tightened also.

I did the switch and tightened the handle yesterday, and the price went up accordingly, and will again if I clean it this week .

Spray it down with WD and blow it off with air. Easy clean up!

Yes sir, can I send it to you for that part, then you can mark it up accordingly .

Can I ask what shipping might be to zip 12054?

Edit: I have no problem cleaning it, my OCD would have it down to the guts making it shine

Sure, everyone always brings a dirty saw when it needs a little repair work. Sold a saw to a local 2 years ago and he called saying it just quit running. Had no idea what could be wrong, changed spark plug and fired right up. $30 for cleaning and $3 for the plug.

I will stop derailing Brett's post. What is a Stihl you speak of? Only one good brand that I know of.

Fixed it Rod , you had to be talking about a Dolmar, when the spell check kicked in .

Sound fair to me, I don't like cleaning a nasty saw .

You know it is a great saw and a great price, I just got a good deal on one that doesn't need as much cleaning so this one is headed down the road.

Saw is sold pending funds.
Thanks everyone,
Brett

 

[chipper1]

Saw is paid for and the new owner should be receiving it shortly.
