Absolutely, but I wanted to check it out to find a negotiating point on behalf of someone further away............after seeing the condition I just told him thanks, and I walked away.
I saw it on Ebay/Craigslist

I don't understand whysomeone would list a saw with no description of the condition of the actual saw, and use photos that make most folks question the condition of the saw. And according to the listing title the saw "runs great."
Dolmar PS-7900. Runs Great,A Smooth and Powerful Chainsaw. | eBay
Funny!
Look at the photos and wonder WHY they have is listed as 'Used' and not 'For parts / not working' ...
Gotta tell you though, that broken plug wire is the deal killer for me!
.... and somebody bought it for $300.
Sad.

Scary. People that nuts run chainsaws. No wonder there are horror flicks using them.

Jonsered 490 NEW replacement p/c on eBay???
No decomp on these saws, but maybe this is some Chi-com stuff?? I am hoping they come up with replacement p/c's for this model.

No, it don't look right, but even if the piston would work...........

Bet you $10 the coil is bad, and thats bad, cuz there ain't no more. If someone needs parts, I think I have three of them for just such a purpose.
Can you ever use the coil from a different brand of saw? Just curious.
Isn't there an Efco lineage in the Olympik line?

yeah oly was/is made by oleo-mac, efco. problem is that 200 series of saws with electronic ignition(251B, 251S, 252, 254, 264, etc.) have coils that aren't made any more and can hardly be found.

It is not an 039. Is it one of those Chinese knock off saws? That is my guess.
I think Philbert is tactfully trying to ask if there is an Efco part that could be used as a substitute for the Olympyk coil. Seems I've also seen on here notes about replacing electronic ignitions with totally different ones, unrelated to the saw at hand.

I don't think the "Greek" does chicom stuff. He has good rep for parts he sells. I have bought pistons and rings from him but no P&C kits. So I don't know on them. Message him and ask where they are made.

Chi com, something about the recoil side and the flippy caps don't look right to me.
It's a 'Stihl style' 039.

An 048 that looks to be complete, but in pieces. If it has a good P/C, then that's pretty rare in itself. I bought a few saws from this seller...he's a good guy.

A 490 is 44mm closed port. As you can see the Partner Formula 500 is a 45mm open port. That said, I would think the complete top end would interchange.

Ooops! That's right. However, what's up with having a decomp on such a small saw?

The listing calls it a 039 but it's got a 029 engine. Thats misleading but not really a problem for the saw (just the buyer).
The real problem is that he seems to have mixed case halves. Clutch side is old numbers 029/039, but the flywheel side has the flippy cap which makes it ms290/390. Mixing case halves= bad news. Leak mucho.

If there is I haven't heard of it. Even talked with people from Emak in Europe about it, and they see no reason to stock them anymore. At $90 list over there, there's not much point.
As far as some other one working, I've been looking, but the original is quite goofy, with four pickups instead of two or three. I do have a replacement one with three that works, but haven't found a match yet.
