and been on the phone to a silky saw rep.

 

Well, did you pull:lol:

[Rich2484]

got a 08s in yesterday...

 

wouldnt start, brought at a boot fair for 15 quid.

 

cleaned carb now starts like a beauty, but wont run with chainbrake on, so looking at clutch tomoz.

 

and i cant begine to describe what a pita getting the chain cover off.......

 

still hopefully 261 parts in tomoz and another new silky in aswell.

Got a Pioneer P12 at a boot sale today, runs well, the guy said he could not start it.

 

Anyone got a spare chain brake hand guard and brake band?

 

I think mid seventies, is this one of the first top handled saws?

 

Canadian made, chrome bore must be a pro type saw.

 

I love the colour and the retro design, must be worth the £20 I paid for it

According to mike acres Model Profile: P12 it didnt have a chain brake.

I have found pictures of three or four versions of this saw.

 

My one should have a brake like this

Still has the broken tubular steel bit left, missing the band.

just weld one up.

just weld one up.

 

That was the plan if there are no bits about, bit of steel tube then MIG weld it, it is a very tight bend though.

 

The band could be more of a challenge, should be able to cut down a longer one. Bit of trial and error getting the length correct.

Been given a 357 XP by a mate of mine which has a blown engine. I was going to use it as a spares donor for my own saw but I like the idea of having a second saw.Given the varying qualities of replacement pistons and cylinders, has anybody got any experience of these?

Try tesgol on eBay,

 

Ive bought items off him in the past and the quality of the parts i bought was shocking. They should never have left the factory they were made in.
