Where to Buy Bluemax Parts?

[B440]

It's been a long time since I had a Bluemax/YardDog/Viper clone saw and I'm having a hard time finding a piston & cylinder kit for it.

Bluemax Model 8901, 45.1cc

I've searched ebay and only found one seller and shipping will take a month. Can anyone point me to the Bluemax parts aisle?

Parts list is on the back few pages of this manual along with a phone number for parts.

These generic chainsaws tend to all use the same parts so if you search ebay for "Chinese chainsaw ????" you're likely to find what you need.

Those timbertechs look like they would fit. Slightly different top shape but the intake and exhaust look identical. I assume the 52cc cylinder would fit on the case?

How about this one?

Would the piston fit down in the case

There are differences in crank stroke on the 58cc I believe.

The 52cc piston and cylinder will bolt on. The 58cc and 62cc version have a longer stroke

They are throw away saws.

Good to know. The kit I linked had a few more items like the bearing for not much more $. Once I get a cylinder, I'll use it as a learning tool for porting. The Earthquake Viper I used to have was a solid saw after removing the cat and tuning.
