I'm no expert when it comes to chainsaws so hopefully you guys can help. This was my dad's old saw (maybe my grandpas)that has been sitting on a shelf for the last 8 or 9 years. I think somebody ran it over. The bar is bent and I think the gas tank is cracked. The oil tank has a chunk missing and the chain brake handle is busted off but still works. I can get it to start and run for about 5 seconds before it cuts out. I cleaned the air filter and it still does it. Do you guys think its toast, or worth saving?
It looks like a gas & oil housing is about 45 plus shipping, 10 for the chain brake handle, and a new bar, plus whatever it would cost to get the saw to actually run. Also, does the 025 take the same bar and chain as a 170? And would a 18 inch bar be better on it? Looks like its a 44cc saw.
