i have owned several in my day. my problem is that i don't use them often enough to keep the carbs clean and they never work when i need to use them. the crown jewel in my stable is a pioneer farmsaw that is huge as shit. it is one of the models that people modify when they do lumberjack competitions. unfortunately, i have not used it in a while and the carb is f'ed up.
for a small saw, i like those old maccullah's that were built in the 80's. they are small, light weight, have lots of power and are very cheap to buy used. i have perhaps 4 or 5 of those. none are running right now either.
because i needed a saw a couple weeks ago, i went out and purchased a fucking used piece of shit poulan at the local pawn shop. i took the carb apart, cleaned it, adjusted the carb. it ran great for about 10 cuts and then quit. i can't get the damn thing to run for the life of me. it is getting gas and spark. pos!!!!
i put sta-bil in my tools before i store them away. unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be enough.

Anyone into chainsaws?
So I got a new job at a 2 stroke shop a Few weeks ago.
We sell Go karts,Chain saws,Lawn mowers,rototillers etc
My boss has been trying to get me to buy a New Chainsaw because the stihl i have is a newer model with the plastic housing.
So yesterday I did.....
I bought a Vintage 1981 Stihl 024 Woodboss,in orignal case and has less than an hour of use. Has been gone threw and all new everything completely Refurbished.
I did a Service on my MS270 and its for sale on the showroom.
