Swap meet...

[Duke Thieroff]

So here's the deal....I just sold this saw on eBay, and somehow it got damaged in shipping. Apparently where the rear handle meets the footpad got chunked out. This was the all metal tank design. So I will be refunding the buyer his money and receiving the saw back. This is a shame because this is a really sweet example of an 028. I could go a few ways with this, so I will...

-If you have a replacement tank you would be willing to trade/sell me we can work it out.

-If you happen to have the metal tank and you want a saw to mount it on I'm sure we could work out a trade, or what not.

-If you want to repair it.

I'm interested in offers, keep in mind I have yet to see the damage, but if it is only what is what was described it should be a simple fix.....Drop me a PM..


Here's the orginal eBay listing.....

For sale is a Stihl 028 WoodBoss. This saw is in overall good shape and does not have any major flaws such as crack or breaks. This sasw does, however have some small scuffs froms light usage. The decals on the cylinder cover and clutch cover are intact but are starting to lift. There is some paint missing from the underside of the saw as pictured. There is some carbon discoloring on the crankcase in the muffler area.

I have replaced a few wear parts on this saw, the new parts include:

-New Fuel Line

-New Ground Wire

-New Crankcase Impulse Line

-New Fuel Tank Vent Line

I have converted this saw over from the points ignition to electronic ignition using OEM Stihl parts. As a result this saw now has a reliable and maintenance free ignition system.

The crankshaft bearings are tight, with no play.

The AV buffers are solid and tight.

The drive sprocket shows some light wear.

This saw has the cast magnesium gas tank as opposed to the plastic one.

The chain has been hand sharpened and the rakers have been checked and set.

The chain is Stihl branded and has in excess of 75% of the life left in it. The 18" bar is also Stihl branded and has had the groove cleaned as well as the rails dressed.

The piston shows signs of very minimal use, the orginal machining on the piston can be clearly seen.

The carburetor may need some minor adjustment upon your receipt of the saw, as is common with environmental changes and small engines.

This saw has been disassembled and cleaned. You will not be receiving a filthy piece of equipment.

This saw is ready to be used and put to work.



Here's some pics...

I have an SP125C with a brand new 36" roller-tip bar. The saw is a runner. Some new paint and it would be worthy of display on your desk.

I have boxes of Shindaiwa parts for 550,575,680,695 saws - enough stuff to build a few running saws.

Also have a Shindaiwa 580 and Shindaiwa 680. Both run.

Anyhow, I am downsizing the fleet and looking to get cash to spend on other projects, or some other saws. Would like a 7900 Dolmar, 390 Husky, or 088/880 Stihl. PM me with what you have.

A friend of mine has two of them. He did do a top end on one of them quite a few years back. I'll see if he still has the old piston around. If he wants to part with it even better if not I'll mic it up and send you the specs.

I would appreciate and can trade parts for your labor. I'm putting together an old-school hotsaw project.

I tried but your inbox is full !!

Both have good compression, 145 and 155. The newer one is an electronic ignition. I poured fuel in the carb and it instantly fired up. The older one appears to have a spark issue. Could be dirty points or switch, I haven't troubleshot it any further. These are clean and appear to be low use. Should look nice with some cleaning. They are complete. One will need an av mount. Somebody will like these I'm sure, just not me.
Open to trades.

PM sent.

Same here... PM sent

490 590 stuff for trades

I traded off my jonsered 490 so I can start unloading extra parts. Complete air filter assembly including choke etc. Like new cylinder cover, recoil (spoke for), clutch cover still has jred 490 sticker on it with brake handle etc ( I can use this on my 5000's so has to be a good trade).
