Hi, I am looking for a carburetor for a 245a/306a. Let me know what you have. Thanks!

Super cool! Here's mine with s/n 118354446. Same features and era.

Sold.

Bump. 175 plus shipping? Or make me an offer. I would trade for some project-in-a-box or Stihl factory service tools.

Nice little 015av that I got from a local rancher in Wyoming. Disassembled engine from case and cleaned everything in a parts washer. New fuel line with modern fuel filter. Everything else is factory. Starts first pull. Everything is functional except for the easy start throttle pin. AV mounts...

Bump. Even if you're remotely interested, just let me know. Maybe we can work out a trade or deal. Compression came in at 130psi here at 5300 feet. So roughly 153 at sea level.

Just got those cap seals in and put the old caps back on.

I could potentially trade a nice ms461 towards/for the 044 if any of you want to go that way.

Thanks for the feedback. It didn't seem to be any sizeable displacement or particularly great quality.

You're the best! Thanks.

Hi, I posted pics of this saw in the homelite thread, and in the collections thread as part of my collection. It's been very fun to collect chainsaws for a few months now, but I think that practically I've been thinking about keeping my collection to just a few saws: 026, 064, 5105, and...

Hello there! I've been collecting saws for a while now, and I finally have a pot of cash set aside for a saw that I've been wanting badly for a while. I have a nice, clean, factory original 064 and a beautiful 026. Now it's time to get an 044. I'd like to have a clean one with the metal tags...

Thanks! I count it as a little blessing. It allowed me to give a clean ps510 as a birthday gift to a friend and then replace it with this.

Haha, I'll admit that I didn't get the box with it. Seller shipped with a tank full of gas - i started the saw on first pull! I don't think they knew much about saws.
