Here's the story on the pretty nice old "farm saw ".
I usually only drop off trash at our local dump, as we live out in the country.
But this old boy had this saw pulled off to the side in a box in pieces.
So I ask the guys what's up with the saw....he says no spark and parts not available, you want it ???
Yes YES I do.
So I take the thing home, first I notice is the spark plug is cracked. Kinda chuckle and think could it be that simple.
Buy the correct spark plug, basic compression test, verify spark, all good.
I know the diagrams for the vacuum fuel pump were most probably shot. So some amzoil 50 to 1 straight into the cylinder an BINGO.
Lights up for couple seconds. I'm like no FN way

All it really needs is a diagram rebuild kit and air filter cover. I'm going to get the original cover and not even mess with trying to revive to use. It's a wall hanger. What a hoot.

Got a husky 460 24" among others so it's not like I really need it .

And that my friends is the story of the free ' the farm saw "
