Ive had to do that a few times, it's amazing how much difference the denser cold air makes on a warm air tune.

Yeh I put it in wood and it wasn't kicking like before and realized she was richer than Trump.

Any ideas on getting this 024 to shine again? These are the two saws from yesterday. Thanks

Shindaiwa 695(?).

Seems to run good.

@LonestarStihl might have some suggestions, but after using PB blaster and tooth brush to cut some of the oil and grit, you might try using an auto wax that's used to restore faded plastic.

As long as she runs good! And I don't know much about those saws, I know I wouldn't mind having the 757 though!

Danggggggggh lol. I used a magic eraser on mine which helped get grease and grime off. I am still in the search for the best restorer but for cleaner I used me clean magic eraser(off brand) and some simple green. On paint I used turtle shell rubbing and polishing compound and it worked wonders. Cody suggested that stuff. Once you get the plastic real clean I've heard tire gel from an auto store is supposed to work real well but I haven't tried it yet.

I had a friend that if I remember correctly used the wet sanding and clear coat method on some atv plastics to make them look new again. For the surface layer of grime on my last saw I used some purple cleaner/degreaser that was on sale at napa. I also find tooth brush, Qtips and shop towels handy.

 

[brandonstc6]

I've used purple power , a brush and water hose before

Here is a very quick fix that doesn't cost much. Also very halfassed but can be done with bits and pieces laying around and has worked so far.

Yeh purple power, simple green, mean green, whatever just a good degreaser. I personally use simple green. I get the jug of concentrate and I can cut it to whatever dilution if any that I want. I also like the magic eraser sponges but they fall apart easily which sucks. Just be ready to scrub a dub dub

 

[astnmacgto]

Degreaser in a squirt bottle, hose, and blow em dry

 

[LonestarStihl]

I've also read a fine grit sand paper but once again haven't tried it

 

[brandonstc6]

I will try that. I've used most of the idea above. I was hoping there would be something to really cut the grease. I like the magic eraser idea. Thanks guys

What what is that a fix for, the screws pulling out of the muffler?

Alright guys, Im gonna get rid of this 10-10, it's in pretty good shape but is missing.....

Waffle wrap that goes around recoil
Bar plates
Clutch cover

It does fire on fuel in carb and fuel line is soft, tank looks good. It is the old style filter which means they are 50 bucks a piece for nos ones. I will include a good used one but keep that in mind if you need to replace it at some point. Ik it's not much and I would just assume keep it for parts but if one of you guys want it I'd like 30 bucks plus ride. You won't hurt my feelings because ik that's about half the value of the saw. But like I said, there's 30 bucks in parts that I would just assume keep. I just wanted to offer it to one of you guys who have been looking for one. I will stay on the lookout for more.

Carry on gents......
