Howdy folks,
I got a project chainsaw for the right price, free! It is a Stihl 066 with the digital red light. I don't know if I have spark and the compression is shot. It looks like the saw was run without oil. I also noticed that the flywheel is missing a fin. Part Number 1122 400 1209.
What would you do for replacement parts?
Should I stick with the original parts (buy used flywheel) and hope that the red light Ignition is working, or go with the cheaper, simpler ignition and matching ignition?
I think I can get away with a simple top end replacement and put this saw back to work. If it is more involved, at least the mosquitoes are gone in the shop for the year.
Thanks for the help!
