you can't fix stupid
Man I never put the story behind this in here I just put the picture up LOL. So this saw is a 2013 461 that has less than 5 hours on it but I bought it in a box. The person bought the saw and tried to take the clip off the clutch to change the sprocket and instead of pulling the eclipse off he used a screwdriver and pride up on it and broke the crankshaft. I was the one that took the saw apart in 2013 when I worked at the place that sold a saw. The gentleman wouldn't pay for a new crankshaft and they weren't going to warranty it so it's at under a workbench until a few weeks ago when I bought it for $150. I had a good crank laying around from a old 461 that was run over. Put all new seals , gaskets, and all new rubber lines. I'm into it for about $350 with the new bar and chain ..... I love this saw

This reminded me of the saying "When some people have a hammer, everything looks like a nail."
To have the original owner treat a $1000+ saw like that is mind numbing.

Air Injection maybe?
Arrived home to this guy in a box. Bought it sight unseen from a seller who knew nothing about it, it had been his father in laws. The muffler was off so I was a bit worried, but she lives just fine. Going to need crank seals, which I have.
Not bad for $183.50 shipped

Very nice! With that serial number, it almost certainly has the sought after KS cylinder and 87 carb.
Has the 87, cylinder is a Malhe with decomp. I suspect changed out at a dealer as the decomp plug is definitely Husky, very familiar from my time wrenching at a dealer.
Something makes me think it doesn't have that much time on it.

Picked up this Husky 50 literally for free. It was in 100 pieces, in a box with random other Husky parts. Spent the last few months tinkering and putting things back together. Also utilized the jug for my first real porting attempt.. Didnt go wild, just widened the intake and exhaust ports and cleaned up the transfers. Spent more time smoothing out the surfaces, removing cast Mark's and polishing the daylights out of everything.. Went through quite a few dremel stones, and spent countless hours with needle files and fine grit sandpaper. Kept timing the same, removed base gasket, removed muffler baffle and added 2 more forward spacing slots on the left side of muffler. $12 for a carb kit, $2 for a plug and a few hours porting and tuning has turned this into a nasty little machine. Sounds wicked too!!!!!
