Just bought a 038 Magnum from Facebook marketplace for $100. Runs good. Any idea what she’s worth ? View attachment 988231

Great score!

Great score!

Yeeah!.

 

[Darnz]

Was given this today along with a bunch of bars, looks in pretty light used condition with good compression, will throw a carb kit on and see what happens, will go nicely with my five other 009s

Put some petrol down the carb and away she went, runs mint, oiler even works!

Stopped by the local Husky dealer to pick up some chain tensioners, happened to ask if they had any junk saws in their yard - girl at the front said she’d check. I mentioned I’d be interested in any 300 series or earlier as she walked out the back. A minute later she came out with a little 240 and the beauty I ended up taking home with me. Seemed like she was locked up at the shop, but I took off the bar & chain when I got home and the crank rotated! Didn’t feel any play in the bearing on the PTO side, which is encouraging so far. Definitely looks like an old logging saw, and it’s missing a lot of small pieces, but it’s a 394xp, for the price of $0, and it came with a 28 inch bar with an almost new chain on it.

And it has that limited edition access port to grease the clutch needle bearing on the go!
Steal!

That, or possibly increased cooling capacity of the clutch under heavy load?

FB auction 046 arctic $15, needs a least a bearing. Maybe a lil elbow grease.

Looks like I may have lucked out, but further verification is needed and some cleanup on the inside at minimum

Lucked out how?
Are there a crop of potatoes growing in all that muck packed in against the cylinder?

Yep, fertilizer for the garden, an potentially a still good oem 394 cylinder!

got these for free (almost). helping a family member move. they gave me these and some other tools. used about $50 in gas, but im happy

MS391 - straight gassed -$40. Debating on selling for parts or replace with new top. The good…View attachment 983304View attachment 983305
And the bad…
View attachment 983306

So that's how a straight gassed chainsaw/ piston looks like...
And I was "paranoid" about the quality of synthetic motul 800 offroad 2T oil...
Used in a makita ea6100p

 

[Gabriel1982]

The good is good- the bad is ugly!
Somebody made a bad and early in saw life mistake with that one, you would think in this day and age we live in, saws would have an oil sensor in the tank that could detect oil or lack thereof and interrupt the ignition....... but then I guess they would not sell as many new replacement saws!

If it's premix how could any sensor detect the presence or lack of 2 stroke oil in the gas?! This is up to the user/owner job. Not mentioning the oil to fuel ratio for a good lubrication... One incompetent user could screw that up too...

These are the pictures that crack me up when loggers tell others how they baby their saws! A fine example of maintenance.

50 bucks, Tomos 650 = updated Husqvarna L65

 

[Overlooker]

I stopped at a garage sale held by one of my former clients who still owes me a little money. I brought all these goodies home in exchange for taking $40 off his balance due.


The top row of 7 tools are all Snap-On!



He told me it runs great but is hard to start. We'll see... Thanks for watching! O

Can't say I've been able to post on this thread for a good minute, but how bout this. Buddy sent me his 7310p last winter to try out. Hits me up today and asks when my birthday is. Told him at the end of this month. Then he tells me that 7310 is yours Happy Birthday. Couldn't thank him enough for that generous gift. Ohh did I mention its ported, pop up piston, and has a dual ported can muffler? One mean saw.

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

I also want such a gift

Clean 257 with a 262 top end for $40. 10 mins from my house. Needed a carb clean. Ended up cutting the squish band down to. 017, ported it, and she pulls like a train now.
