    Old saws

    So I have 4 old MS 180’s they will not run my mate in the shop says they are not worth mending but the one hasn’t done that much work I don’t know if he is just kinda saying that and he just can’t be arsed with them I am not that good with chainsaw motors so can’t fiddle with them myself so is it worth taking them somewhere else or just try and sell as a job lot spares or repair Thanks For your Thoughts. Mark
