Just bought a partner P85.. and never heard of it!

[MOE]

I just bought a P85 with a 20" bar. I haven't had a chance to start it and try it. I have a couple questions. What kind of power does this saw make? Are parts available? Is it known as a good saw? Does it have an automatic oiler besides the thumb pump?
From the little bit I've had a chance to look at it, it seems well built,(and heavy). It's been sitting it a garage for a while, I'll try starting it next week and post the results. thanks

Should have thought about all those questions before you bought it.

It seems to be in very nice shape and it was cheap to buy. I thought I'd take a chance.

Weight should be about 18 lbs powerhead only - so it sure is heavy.

I don't think I have ever seen any power ratings on the 85 cc Partners, but I think that about 5 hp shouldn't be too far off.

It is basically the same saw as the P100, just smaller bore.

I'm hoping to try it out in the next day or so. It should,(if it runs good) be a good $50 firewood saw.
