I worked out a deal for some saws for $135
1. Pro Mac 10-10
2. Poulan 245a
3. Stihl 028 super (scored piston)
4. Stihl 036 (scored piston)
5. Stihl 044 ( case and tank only)
6. Stihl 044 (case, tank and cylinder) piston has a hole in skirt. Cylinder may be okay.
Is this a good deal?

I'd do it. Aftermarket p&c kits are cheap for the Stihls. Resell those and you easily get you money back.

I'm going to get them. He has probably about 500-600 saws. After these I may buy a couple more.

He is a Stihl dealer and has been one for many years.

If the 245 is running they are trending on ebay over 135

It has compression but for some reason they didn't fix it. Same with the Mac.

I didn't see any external corrosion. They were on a wood shelf in the dry

Test fit time. 250 balance is quite good actually.

Made that Mac look like a man. [emoji106]

Big as the power head is, a 6 footer would be awesome, but $$$

Found this gem today. Quite dirty. But she's a runner.

Power head wouldn't like that for sure,and neither would my pocket book lol. Everyone tells me it won't like the 36, but with some sharp semi-skip I think it should do fine. I justfied it because Stihl let's you run a 70cc class saw on a 7 pin rim and that is 10cc's less than this one. Hopefully will get to test it out on some maple tomorrow and make a friend very happy that he doesn't have to cut this firewood wood up. Works for me, assuming I don't break anything in the process.

I should run perfectly with that skip tooth chain. I run one on my Echo cs400 in 17" plus wood and it doesn't even think of bogging down.
