MANUALS: I don't understand your problem there unless you don't have access to a desktop or laptop with a printer. Any PDF can be easily printed out and stapled into a book, or punched out for a ring notebook.
-SN AND DATE: Sawtroll(Niko) can help you date by SN.
-PISTONS AND RINGS: I already gave you my opinion on that. There is no significant woods working advantage of a thin ring saw over a standard piston ring saw.....it's all collector hype. If you could find some thin rings cheap enough, sell the piston and rings together on eBay. Take your profit and turn back into the saw. I see standard pistons (used) still around and you can ask all these parts vendors for them too...maybe they have a slug & jug that is toast....the jug is toast because of ring failure but the piston OK. Now if you're going to restore and flip the saw, it might pay to keep the thin rings and cash in on the hype. If you're going to use the saw hard, you'll not have any significant advantage. Modify the muffler, plug the gov and hang on...it's plenty of saw for anybody's needs in NA.
-FUEL AND TANK ASSEMBLY: It's a response to me over at the pig site by eccentric (Aaron) about a substitute for the OE gas tank vent. If I type out the pig site name, AS will redact it. I think it was an Eco vent and he told me how to rig it.
-OIL PUMP: I was talking about the small O-ring that goes on the bottom of the manual oiler and it seats against the oil part of the case, inside the gas tank. The large O-ring goes on the oiler assembly toward the saw.....Part #29-70-470-02. Also a little rubber flat seal Part #50 12 886-01 (don't use RTV sealer here, if you reuse the old one, use a good silicone grease). The oil pump inner shaft seal is Part #29 65 289-07. Without pics I can only confuse you more. And those Part #'s are from an original late 70's IPL hardcopy and probably superseded with newer #'s into the 2101.
Besides the three or so different pistons they used, the 2100 through the 2101XP are identical. (I'm not a 100% sure, but I think a SEM's module out of a 2101XP would work fine on a 2100CD...don't think there would be a timing issue or rev limiting problem etc. For that matter, a SEM's module out of an 1100CD might work as well.) Well...the later saws used a spring AV toward the bottom of the front case that many said were an 'improvement'...I don't necessarily agree with that.
