Ill post some picks later fellas. Im SUPER excited. Trying to hide it from the wife, because Im supposed to be doing the family thing this afternoon. Sisters boyfriend had a super clean 262xp. Ive had my eye on it for a bit. He gave it to one of his pals after buying his 372xp. He has a 371 and a 372, his pal needed a saw so he gave him his 262xp. Well today he calls me up to fix his daughters dodge neon. Got the neon idling right for him, earlier this week I fixed his silverado too. Well there on his bench sat the 262xp. He caught me looking at it, replied its junk now. I asked what happened, his reply was straight gas. I asked him what his plan was for it, he told me " I already have two saws, take it home with you if you want it." Well, Im a orange saw junkie, and the 262xp has LONG been on my list of gotta have saws. So Im hopeing with a little cleaning and a new piston...............
Now Ill have a pretty good 3 saw plan, 55 Closed Port, 262xp, 362xp with 372 top end. I think I have firewood covered. I have too many other orange saws, but those three will be my " going firewood cutting" saws.
 
262's are always worth fixing up Matt; that's a good project score. Hopefully, you'll only need the piston and she'll be up and running.
 
Sweet deal Matt looking for one myself, I found a guy on Craigslist that's got some trees to come down, right off of 17, if it looks easy are you interested.
