Yup, ours (with all muffler parts still in) is louder than our chipper, tractor and other saws going too! They were built with one idea in mind, chop the tree with as much power as possible! But the decomp valve was a clever idea

Oh joy I like this saw already only had a lil play with her last week, next on the my hit list is to get my 070 running again, she's spent way too long in the shed! Hopefully Steves gonna tackle her in a month or so..... contemplating the 090 pot, piston and clutch upgrade too....... Hopefully this homelite will be equally entertaining

Yeah not the end of the world though is it, it's a pretty epic bit of kit so it'll get what's needed. She was another forgotten about barn find that was in amazing condition considering. What's the damage on your aftermarket clutch? A genuine one is 180ish iirc?

I got a contra lightning, the damage was a spring had broke, thrown a shoe, which had broke the plate retaining the carrier, cracked the clutch drum, so I fitted an 070 clutch, which was about £40
