i need parts

[stihlbroke]

hi guys i am a new member, can someone help me????a mate of mine has a stihl 08s chainsaw for sale for £50,however the saw will not run he thinks it needs a new barrel and piston.the saw is about 28 years old,it looks in reasonable condition.does anybody know were to get a barrel and piston and how much,also does a barrel and piston of a stihl ts350 concrete saw fit.please help guys thanks:001_cool:

a perfect running 08s might be worth £50... but not one that needs work...

 

they have been in production since 1968... and werent really considered a pro saw even then...

 

 

 

regardless, parts are still available from stihl... and cheap aftermarket pistons/cylinders are available... try ebay

 

the ts350 is based on the 08 and i think the p+c are the same

 

 

i could probably get an illustrated parts list and workshop manual if you really want to fix it up, but i wouldnt touch one unless it was free

Just put the nifty towards a new saw.

but i wouldn't touch one unless it was free

 

I wouldn't even have one given!

 

I enjoy my sense of touch tooooo much!!!!!!

[tree_beard]

didnt say i would touch it for more than the time taken to slap it on ebay and pass it on to the next poor mug....

i was given one, i cleaned it up, sharpened the chain sold it for 70 quid.

 

other than that i can't help you
