Yes, I like those old huskys myself .
Good luck with your search Billy, and welcome to AS.

What, that isn't what you meant.
Here's some quick info on the real 261 in case you meant the ms261 .

Your still alive, learned something today .
They are great old saws.
Does it matter to you which version of the ms261, as there are a few basic ones; the ms261 standard carb, then the ms261c electric carb(mtronic), then the newest version of it with the newer style clutch cover that shed a little weight.

Thanks for the awesome knowledge!...

Looking for the (mtronic) if possible.
If I can't find an already ported then I'll buy one stock and then send it to "crabby cooter" to port and mod it for me.

Be sure to read the small print .
I'm not giving my stamp of approval on this one as I don't personally know the saw or the seller.
