Sweet looking saw with next to new bar and chain looks pretty fair also...
Yep got to get that into a runner!!

The main problem with small saws is small carbs with problems.

If and when this site ever gets the search functioning again...
Hopefully you can get alot more info than I could offer.
It's been down for a week...so they're working on things...
What...I don't know and...unusual for this site...no update info has been provided.
Bear with it...it'll get fixed eventually!!

Again REALLY beautiful 009...and can see why your son is flyin'!!!
:cheers:

I’m not fond of the orange 009 saws, however, for that price you can’t miss. Before you start putting money into it, I’d check the compression. If the compression is 130+, you’re good to go. If it’s been sitting for a long time the rubber parts is probably toast. Fuel line, vent line, crank seals, and carburetor diaphragms. Hopefully you make out OK and you’ll have yourself a nice little saw.
 
When you pull the carburetor to rebuild it, check the reed valve. You might want to pull it also to inspect it for cracks. Either in the block or at the base of the valve. I've seen the valve break and get pulled into the crankcase. It causes all kinds of damage.

They put a bunch of different ones on these saws. Walbro supplied the WA 99B, Wt 29A and a few others. Zama supplied the C1S-S1C.
When you pull the carburetor, the # will be stamped on the side.

As a 2-stroke-loving motorcyclist, we were able to purchase fiberglass replacements for the spring steel metal reeds in the 1970's. They too, would eventually fatigue, but wouldn't cause any problems when ingested. Unfortunately, there prolly aren't enough of these saws to justify an entrepreneur making them.
