Saw a 270 on CL and went to look at it thinking I’d quick flip it. Turns out it was locked up, so I talked him down to $10.
Finally got to mess with it today, and the clutch side bearing appears to be toast. Surprisingly, piston looks fine through the exhaust port.
I have zero interest in keeping this saw. What are my options as far as repairs go?
Replace bearings & seals & flip?
Buy a Chinese shortblock and flip?
Part it out? I’d rather do this sort of thing here; I don’t want to deal with eBay and shipping and all that...
Sell as a whole parts saw?
What would y’all do?
