Transmission fluid and acetone mixed 50-50 is about the best stuff I ever used.

I will see if I can find that stuff in the chemical storage.
If not, I will just mix up an assortment of solvents, oils, and fuels and see how that works.
There is never a shortage of chemicals there, just a shortage of the ones you need.... LOL
 
When I get to moving stuff, it will be sorted into brands at least ! LOL Now there just piled every where !

No idea what all parts I have for most of them ? Good idea on some , but not sure whats where ?

Let me know if you find a good 044... LOL

Also, is that 268 a closed port xp or an open port non xp? If it is the closed port, see if you can put on hold for me.

I am in the same boat as you though I really limited my saw buying for the last 2 years they still arrive as fast or even faster than when I was buying full tilt. I just opened a saw a fellow NS member sent me. It is kinda special as it will be my oldest Stihl I own yet, its an 1106S that I will now start searching for a few parts for to do a resto on it. I have my saws and saw stuff in 4 different buildings and that just makes it harder to remember where anything is.....LOL

Got any 044s lying around there?
 
Something very strange is going on round here ?


Haven't brought a saw home in bout a month ! :msp_ohmy:


Sent the OL out to the yard sales today ! Got my fingers crossed !

I am not currently looking for any more but they just keep showing up . I couldn`t say no to the 1106S but have turned down dozens of others lately. Still have 7 boxes to open that have saws of some make in them and 20-25 boxes with parts or part saws in them, don`t even know or remember what`s in them......LOL

Think its a XP ? I can hold onto it ,no problem. But it would save you a lot of money if you can find one closer to you. Shipping one up there cost around 80.00 ! Plus the saw !

No idea what that Stihl is ?

Can't think of many saws I want right now , that slowed me way down ! LOL Maybe a 655BP ! LOL Could have bought one , but needed other things much worse !
I can get back to looking now ! LOL

I have to research that old Stihl to see exactly what it is myself. Best I can tell till the real experts on the reslly old Stihls get in on it is that it is a early Stihl Contra Lightening S . Some disassembly required to make a positive ident. The 655 thing I have covered for myself....LOL

We will need pix when you get to building that Stihl ! LOL

I know you have the 655s covered very well ! :msp_razz:

I am in no hurry , would like to find the parts to build one. But that is harder than finding a whole saw ! LOL

The earliest ones have no oil sight glass. Really rare.

In reality there are still lots of those 655`s out there that haven`t heard that there is a bunch of chainsaw nuts looking for them, "yet". There are a lot that have found homes with said nuts that won`t let even one of them go now. I let 7 of my big P series saws go a few years back cause no big demand was in place for them, now its hard to find them at an affordable price.
