It's got the 3/8 8pin sprocket. I'll give it a try--probably in the early morning when it's not 90 degrees and humid
Thanks again.

Thanks again.

The ignition on the 621 and the 80 look identical according to the IPLs, although they have different part numbers.
I was working on one of my 80s last week and again was struck by the similarities of the ignition.
My question is, are these parts interchangeable between the two saws?
Thanks

I actually have no idea, but believe they both have Italian ignitions (Pagani, or something like that???).....

Edit; Looked it up, sure is Pagani on both - ign timing, breaker pt setting and coil gap also are specked as the same......
I don't know cjcocn, my service manual for the 62 and 621 says thats the way to do it. I've had mine apart but never lost the timing as it was set. Seems pretty straight forward if you have a dial indicator that will thread into the spark plug hole.
As I've mentioned before, the 621 was curing cancer and bringing sunlight long before the 361 Stihl ever came along.

There are a few of us here that like Jonsered chain saws. I own a 621, and while I acknowledge it is heavier than some more modern saws, it seems to be a willing worker.
56cc with an 8-tooth sprocket, running 3/8 full chisel on a 20" bar...a guy would think the saw would be pretty wimpy, but it really isn't. Seems to pull hard at a little lower rpm than some other Jonsered saws of the same general era...there's a big diff between this saw and the 535, for example, that isn't fully explained by the measly 7 cc's diff.
621 is a quite good firewood saw, able to handle about anything around. The downside of the 621 is that it has been discontinued for long enough now that a few service parts are getting tough to find. I'd not let that stop you unless the saw is in almost perfect shape...to nice to use. With reasonable care it should last a casual user forever.
how much did you pay? 200 or less is fair.i had it running at the sale, it needed a carb cleaning but the price was right. the only ones i always but no matter are stihls . as long as the price is right. spare parts are nice to have
hope you get this. that's me this winter.There are a few of us here that like Jonsered chain saws. I own a 621, and while I acknowledge it is heavier than some more modern saws, it seems to be a willing worker.
