My thoughts exactly, i was very impressed considering its age!

Looks solid too, reminds me of the old farm boss’s.

Aye seems to hold its own pretty well. See if that huskys still going in 25 or 30yrs?

Howd you fettle the carb?

I doubt it! I rate the husky though I think it is better than the new stihl topper.

It begs the question though why did stihl get it right but have now dropped the ball?

Stripped it cleaned it with carb cleaner then rebuilt it and double bubbled the snapped piece back in situ. It’s worked for now, ill keep my eye out for a spare carb in case the repair doesn’t hold but a couple of days ago it was just a little side project when having a brew, was given the saw so nothing lost and all that! Turns out to be a little cracker.

I can have look to see if I have a spare one floating around as I 've had quite a few 020 supers
