Can anyone help identify 051 or 075

Hi

Wondering if anyone can help have purchased a vintage stihl which we were told was possibly 051 but there is no identification on the saw, but I have a strong feeling it is an 075 because

 

1, There is a bolt screwed in under the front handle by the oil cap which I believe could be a manual oil primer

 

2,at back of saw by the spark plug ( on right) there is a threaded hole which in 075 is a decompression button and I think is missing

 

3, the piston cylinder head has the bolts straight though it to hold in place rather than just at base

 

Is anyone able to help out in identifying it. I have contacted stihl with serial number on crank case but not heard back yet I have attached some pics if any help

 

Thank you :biggrin:

Your pictures are a bit small to be definitive but the signs you have picked up on are consistent with an 075 or first generation 076 (top oil filler). Given that you already have it pretty well stripped down though, the quickest and easiest way to be certain is to unbolt the carb and the spacer block below, then measure the bore with a piece of stick or similar. 051 is 52mm, 075 and 076 are 58mm so there is enough difference for it to be clear.
