Helped a family member to move.
One of the items we came across in their basement: A little orange chainsaw case with a Stihl 009 in it.
My family member said that he purchased it NEW and used it for a weekend following a hurricane. Decades ago!
He can not recall ever using it again.
I have a very well running 011-AVT. I know parts are getting tough to come-by for this generation of saw.
Our local (good) saw shop took a look at the 009. Stated that for the money to re-build, just buy a new Stihl.
I have never run an 009.
Is an 009 worth the effort to re-build, by me?
