Hello Folks. although new to this forum I have over the years managed to find myelf in possession of a number of saws all of which are now considered obsolete. I have a Titan 40; IEL (model unknown);Pioneer P41s and a MCCulloch Pro Mac 85 super. All where in good running condition until recently when I seized the piston on the Mac 85 whilst assaulting the butt end of a huge maple(figuratively speaking). Probably I should put it to bed and purchase an equivalent Stihl or Husky but it seems a shame not to continue using a saw which is lighter and more powerful than all the modern saws I have used to date.Chasing down a new piston ring assembly (and minor other parts has been an exercise in frustration, can any of you folks help or provide suggestions. I would prefer a Canadian source as I live on Vancouver Island ( British Columbia)however will gratefully take whatever is available. Any estimations of what i should expect to pay for these parts? thanks......Oh by the way I am curious that I dont hear much mention of the Pioneer saws on this Forum . They are in my opinion an excellent saw. I have had my P41 since new(1976)and cut countless cords of wood not to mention 3 spacing contracts and have only ever replaced recoil springs and cords( and a host of chains and bars(24 inch). Any comments?
