Hi Tony,

I was about to mail you, I got the full asking price for the saw and should get the payment for it very shortly - it is a fair price for a saw in good working order - if it falls through then I will contact you.

I have a Husqvarna 345 coming in shortly, from what I have seen, it looks clean but have no idea what is wrong with it yet. I have one of these saws myself and I really like them - good little workhorse that will cut through 14" oak no problem.

One saw I have just done is a Jonsered 2149 (50cc) it is Jonsereds version of the Husky 350 and shares many of the same parts, it has been seized at some stage but I have cleaned up the bore and fitted a new piston, I cut half a log store of wood last weekend with it and it runs really well - nice and powerful, I would be looking at £160 plus £10 delivery for it.

I have also fitted a jubilee clip mod to the inlet boot which is always a weak link on htese saws.

Any good?

Steve

Hi Dave

Don't know if you caught my last mail - your saw is ready to go so please PM me if you haven't got the mail.

Cheers

Hi Dee,

I have three Stihl top handled saws ready to go, three to service and one in bits for parts but unfortunately has a damaged muffler.

I usually keep an eye out on ebay - going price is £25-35. You may be able to get a new one from "Kwikchip" on ebay, he can get hold of OEM Stihl parts but it may be expensive.

If you ever need saw work done or want to sell old saws that need repair or strip down and service then let me know.

Hi Chris,

Mmm - the little Stihls are a different beast, done four now so they are simple for me now, in short, the air filter, carb plate, and carb comes out, the boot surround and insert comes out, the front kill switch wire comes off, the AV mount front and rear has the location bolt removed, the handle lower bolt is removed, the boot is pushed through the rear handle and the impulse pipe removed and the handle is removed.

The engine cover comes off and you can now get to the exhaust.

I think you can undo the exhaust through the lower casing holes then push the muffler out of the side of the saw but you may need to remove some of the clutch side plastic covers but I usually am stripping down these saws completely so would need to take a look! The two holes in the underside of the saw lead me to believe that the exhaust is removable from the saw without disassembling the saw.

I have sent you a mail before reading this!
