Hey everyone

Got myself, another Jonsered 2152, bought cheap, so problems were expected, sadly this is caused by a serviceshop or a previous owner being bad at putting stuff back together.

Anyhow, see pictures.

That is a clear hole in the buttom of the oil tank, caused by..............mounting the wrong screws, and then using the saw for a long time, not noticing metal going on metal.

I have seen this done, a few times before, where they mix up which screws goes where, and put in the long ones, in the buttom and the shorter screws in the side for the handlebar.



Sigh.
Can I fix it, and how?....all suggestions are welcomed and gladly taken! :bowdown:

J-b weld? after a very solid cleanup perhaps?

:cheers:
