038 av

[tree monkey]

i have a 038av thats mostly intact just a few bits missing!

Any guys or gals out there got a dead one sat taking up room and want to part with it?

I fancy rebuilding it as it would be a handy spare to have about.

Cheers

I have one fully working! If you dont get the bits for yours I would be intrested in buying it for spares for mine.

I am in the same situation with a 028 woodboss also. (need Parts)

FWIW parts or as most of say "bits " are not that hard to find for any of the 038 series .Exception would be original bore cylinders and pistons for the Av's .Some parts will interchange between the 028-038-042 and 048 becuase they are all the same design .

 

The most popular of that series was of course the 038 Magnum which is still produced as I believe either a 380 or 381 but not available in North America for sale because of environmental issues .

 

Never the less any of the 038 series is a rock solid well built saw and proclaimed by many including myself as one of Stihls best ever produced .I personnaly own three ,one Av and two mags .

There's a fair few cheap (ish) 38's on eBay, plus loads of bits for them!
