That 041 is a torque monster it won't keep up with the modern saws speed wise but will outpull them.

That was a long time ago for me. 353 and 346xpG after it long been sold.

You got to catch me when I get them. Usually dont last long as I price fair. Not a over pricing stuff like some do.

$100 running Stihl 041 from a friend. I didn't steal it, but I think my friend gave me a good deal. He bought it new in the '70s. He's 73 and switched to electric. Here it is as I got it:View attachment 1102254

And after I removed my friend's foam-and-duct-tape anti-vib mods and gave it a quick cleaning:

It runs, idles, and cuts, but I'll likely grab my 036 for daily use or my 009 for small jobs. Thanks for watching! O

Love the old 041 chainsaws. One of my favorite saws I like collecting

I have been working with the seller for 2-3 weeks on the logistics. Came from Tahoe, but wasn't worth taking time off for to go get + gas/wear-tear.

Got the shipping sorted out, and I'm now proudly in the club:



The 150' roll of rope new would cost as much or more than what the asking price + shipping + the extra $$ I gave the seller for his time and hassle. Let alone the cost of the griphoist itself.


I don't celebrate Christmas, but it sure feels like it today.

3300lb capacity grihpoist
40 or 50' roll of wire
150' roll with reel
Cheater-bar TBD


Was it a you-suck price? Maybe not, but for $1075 to my door, in good working order, I'm beyond thrilled.

One of my highly coveted items, now marked off the list (still looking for a smaller one for the right price.)

Tiny Tiger 350watt 110vac, 6/12vdc generator

Got this free about 15 years ago and quickly gave it to my brother thinking he might use it. Turns out he still had it and never used it so i got it back. Never saw one before or since then. Runs, just has a pin hole the gas tank.

064 listed as 056,, guy had a 2100 in the shed. PO said both died.

2100 fired with a prime seems good 145comp,, needs manual oiler fixed

Those early 064s are great saws. Nice find!

Scored a free 2002 Stihl 066 off an older gentleman recently. He said his employee smoked the topend, I’m guessing the straight gas and the chain on backwards did it in. Needs a topend, exhaust, and a new rim but it should make a good milling and stumping saw once it’s fixed

You really suck, lol
I have a muffler for it but not the dual port front, unfortunately.

 

[singinwoodwackr]

Craigslist today...jumped in the car as soon as he said still available. 45min drive

Came in the original Husky case, extra new chain.
Score!

Runs, needs a switch, ooooo, lol

 

[Ed Penney]

WOW A whitey, nice snag

 

[singinwoodwackr]

Cool swag indeed.. How bout that price in the corner ? My favorite rabbit blaster is a Stoeger side by side coach gun in 12 ga. Just bumped into the pics, thanx for sharing.

 

[singinwoodwackr]

Husky 50, broken braking band. No longer available. Cant use at work without chain brake. Husky....you suck.
Is this the correct use of this thread......View attachment 1054727

Did you ever find a replacement? I think I have 2 of those

 

[singinwoodwackr]

Another pair to add to the collection or restore and sell...we'll see. Both strong runners, 390 recently rebuilt, 372 needs a muffler and maybe a top cover.
Retired faller, thinning his herd.

I was recently presented with a hoosky 240 that crapped out when the throttle is pinned.. I started sniffing for leaks..... Wound up mostly dismantling it in the search.. Didn't find a leak,, in the primer bulb, or the carb hoses. It would idle.. So I cleaned it with aerosol carb cleaner and slowly started to assemble it.. When it was done, pulled it over and it ran like scared whore. A bit of tuning and it seems fine... I guess I suck for not being able to say " that's the problem". Same plug, same everything,, but it runs good now.. Was it just crud ??
