  2. WELL SAID MY FRIEND VERY TRUE the dolmar 115i was a good saw true the rubbers wouldnt last long you can still buy the 115 have a look on dolmar.com and see what you think
  3. i would buy one too that would be awesome idea i grew up with a man who is in his late 70's now i can only ever remember him owning three saws 1. mcCulloch 10-10 automatic 2 jonsereds 49 sp 3 sachs dolmar 117 the first two saws he still has wrapped up in a paper bag and then a hessian sacks , both of them are immaculate and they still run well the sachs dolmar he gave to me when i left school so he is responsible for me liking all the lesser saws, and catching the D bug:thumbup:

  5. thanks alot for that answer i was wondering if that would be the problem guess i will stick with the devil i know
  6. good evening just a small question to you i was in a large garden sales shop in a city northwest of you and i was enquiring about aspen as i had some other stuff to pick up, and i explained that i was concerned about the quality of the pump petrol, and would it be sensible to use aspen in my old vintage saws and villiers engines and they advised me not too use it as it will burn to hot and it could do more damage than normal top grade pump petrol with fuel fit added and husqvarna 2 stroke oil i was hoping you could tell me if this is true or not thanks shavey
  7. even dolmar/makita arent making a saw over 80cc now
  8. i think jonsered have a version of the husky 445e its the cs 2245s
  9. yes thats very true eddy it just seems a good honest little saw that likes making a noise everybody who has used it likes the "yellow peril" cheers

    Dolmar

    good evening it is a bit difficult to get spares but there are some around there were a few versions of the cc chainsaw the earlier versions from early to mid sixties had one nut holding the chain gaurd in place and had one handle on the back rather than the traditional loop handle if you go onto ebay.de ther are some for sale but if you could send me a photo and serial nos of the saw i can help determine what year and model i have just sent you a pm with photo thanks shavey

  24. hello all:thumbup: i heard there is going to be strong winds late tomorrow afternoon early evening it will be a bit rough at bridgewater carnival tomorrow night
  25. good evening welcombe to the site, sounds like you made a good choice of saw there what does it feel like, is it a nice balanced powerful saw. Arent you happy with the dolmar bar what size are you running is it a 18'' 3/8 chain or a .325 chain most of the dolmar models have groups of saws that run the same types of bars and chains if you go on the dolmar website click on your model then drop down to cutting bars and click download and you will see other models that are the same as yours and you should be able to use one of these older models to get a match because they have been in production longer did you get it in germany or the u.s.a cheers shavey:thumbup:
