its a old v-stack set up probably from the early 80s.i have the k&n base and am waiting for the filter i have on order for it.it would be cool to get the better v-stack project going if possible.

Looking to get some more of these going. I have been picking them up here and there, aiming to make runners. Shame the paint never seemed to adhere to these well. The 1073 is lightly used, showing virtually no sprocket wear, but the paint is coming off in flakes. It has a different clutch cover without tensioner. IPL doesn't show a tensioner though. Only on the 2073. I assume the expectation were that one pulled them tight by hand?

One of them had this odd (loose) fitting bar. My hunch is it is not OEM. A universal mount of sorts. The 3 tensioner holes closest to the tail pass oil into the rails. The nearest the tip does not. Square one reminds me of Homelite style. Bar slot is 9.5mm. First I have seen like this. Anyone familiar with this mount? What else it may be compatible with?

Please don't toss that coil. The bake at 200° F for 12 - 16 hours resurrected two for me. The starter if good, would make a FarmSaw owner very happy.

I would very much like the coil and the starter assy.
Thanks

Looking for a foam air filter for one of my old V-stack intakes. All l have is the K&N setups. Could some one help with a source.

Thanks

Thanks. yes new parts their. Are you looking for the chain brake parts for your saw? Seen your Saw to in the pics and it is good looking saw to.
l am not sure exactly sure but did C/B come optional on the Westerns or were they standard equipment?

 

[p61 western]

My grandpa bought mine brand new and it did not come with it,so i would guess it was optional.I really have not looked for chain brake parts,I dont mind not having it. Been using it for fifteen years without it

 

[p61 western]

Where did you find the new piston and cylinder at

Got the parts from a old distributer up here in Canada. Maybe some of the senior members can add to the C/B delimma.
