Sure its not just the condenser? That's funny that your looking for parts for your dealer.

Here's one better. A so-called tech at the Stihl dealer knew I was into the old 031s (at the time). He mentioned he picked one up and wanted to know if a 310 coil would retrofit. I told him not even close. I asked if it was a points 031 or electronic. He didn't know but said he would find out. A week or 2 goes by and I asked if he figured it out, said he hadn't found the time. I told him give it to me and I'll fix it for you. No response. Next time I was in the dealer he sold me the saw for $5 even after I reiterated my offer to repair it. Took it home, intalled a Nova module and it turned into my best running 031. His boss later on asked about the Nova module and I sold him one for what I paid for it. Seriously.

Some people, you can't tell them anything.

031 coil

Parrisw, I just talked to them and they are looking for either a 1113 400 1300 or the 1301 that you have. I've sent you a PM on this. Thanks Jon

039 cylinder

looking for an Stihl 039 cylinder. I would even take one that is lightly scored. My second option is a 029 super cylinder, or a MS290 cylinder. Send a pm if you have something promising. Thanks -
 
I think that your Shindaiwa stuff is really interesting. :chainsaw: Can you post some photos of your chain saw? :greenchainsaw::greenchainsaw::jawdrop:
 
trade for cash...

Anyone got any ideas (or have one they want to get rid of) a magneto, points, ht lead for a dolmar hobby 100, poulan micro XX or a wright 111
got me a parts saw in the shed that needs one
Or even a parts saw, we'd need to find cheap shipping
trade for £$£
 
Thinning the herd

Here's what I have:
A Mac PM850 that's in decent shape, runs great, and has about 160 psi compression. For honesty's sake, there is one screw missing on the black rewind/starter, and the other two are about stripped. There is also a crack on the bottom of the yellow flywheel cover (so basically the only issue is with the yellow starter cover piece). I picked it up off craigslist a while back with the intent of using it as a work saw; but after much consideration, I don't want to wear out a saw that may be collectable to someone. I hate letting it go... but it's time.

I also have a Homelite super xp1020 automatic that SHOULD run if someone could come up with the missing parts. It turns over good (with a drill) it seems to have compression (will back off flywheel nut when trying to check compression with drill). The clutch side lower handlebar mount is broken off the case, the fan cover is broken, and the rewind is gone. The fuel tank is also pretty nasty. It does have a healthy spark, and everything other than the starter appears to be there.

Next is a McCulloch 1-40? It turns over- and that's about all I know. Maybe someone needs parts?

I won't bog this down with pics, but I can post/send more pics if anyone is interested.

Here's what I'd be interested in trading for:

Husqvarna NE346xp
Stihl 044/440 w/ 12mm wrist pin, or 046/460 (parts saw is fine)
Makita dcs6401 (have a 7900 p/c dying for a home)
372xp, runner or parts
Homelite 360 transformer
Stihl 036 tank, 036 pro orange plastics, and air filter.
or (ofcourse) green stuff (not poulans)
