an old newb question, i'm sure. but, here goes...
the bar's bent, the rails need work....i know that can be fixed. but, the sprocket's riveted in and it's teeth are sharp as a puppy's. it's the original 25yr old bar on a makita 520i.
new bar entirely? or just new sprocket? is a new sprocket even advisable given it's riveted? if entirely, what's a good recommended replacement for a 3/8's chain 18in length? it's the wide type of bar with a wider tip. sorry for my ignorance on proper terminology. just kind of in a hurry for advise since i'll be in town tomorrow and can perhaps get a replacement. as well, juggling firewood pick up with a host of chores before midnight rolls around, so can't spend a lot of time on web searching tonight
oh, and probably new drive sprocket, too, huh? it's the original. sorry, again...can't take pics. the phone'll do it, but i don't know how to interface it with my computer
