Castor
At one time the Alpina saws were called Castor Alpina or vice versa, friend of mine tried to get some interest going as the importer, the saws were too heavy, too slow, and too expensive compared to what was selling then. Same thing with Topso only they vapor locked so bad you had to throw them in brush for two days to let them cool off, if you were lucky you could not find them.

Castor 330 uses a Champion CJ7Y plug, gap .020".
WA walbro carb. High speed mixture is not adjustable. Initial setting on the low speed screw is 1 and 3/8 turns open. Breakerless ignition system. Air gap between ignition module legs and flywheel magnets should be .014". Engine uses a 16/1 gas
il mix. It has an adjustable auto oil pump. No idea on its value or parts availability.
