Went to the flea market today and found this lonely 3300 sitting with some lawn mowers. Well you know the rest of the story...
I knew it was in good shape and it started and run fine even with some really nasty smelling old fuel in it.
Got it home and gave it a good clean up, a new fuel line and a filter. Changed out the crappy saftey chain for a good 20LP chain and it runs and cuts like a champ.
Clean looking saw. Looks even cleaner than my not very used 3500.
In the first picture, note the alignment of muffler half, gasket, and exhaust port. This is what I noted on mine and got a new exhaust gasket that did the same thing, same as the oe. In the kit are three exhaust gaskets and one of those lined up perfectly with the exhaust port. It also had the correct bolt hole diameter. The muffler on mine also has the square cutout. I used that new one because I did not have to worry about it shifting because of bolt diameter and it catching the exhaust flow.
