A local saw shop owner/mechanic has a 034AV that needs a piston and cylinder. He's going to perform the work (and let me watch; I'm itching to learn more), tune the saw, put on a new skip chain, and then sell me the saw for $300. My area Craigslist prices for this saw are between $298 and $350, and those aren't saws with new P/Cs.
I've read here (and on another forum) about stepping up a P/C size on certain saws. Will a P/C from a 034 Super or a 036 fit this saw? If so, does anything else need to be replaced for this to work? Is a 034 and a 034 Super exactly the same, other than the P/C? Is this project/idea a "good" plan in regards to attempting to eek a bit more power out of this saw?
Bear with me if my terminology/questions are a bit off; I'm learning as I go. I've cross-posted this to another forum; hopefully that's not frowned upon. Thanks...
