Just another junk chainsaw

[xyz123]

Above was yesterday and night.

Today. Found a used echo coill on another used chainsaw guys shelves local. We have fire and runs.

Wow now that is customer service from the online echo place. I received a phone call that the switch would have to be back ordered and it was looking like 2 weeks out date to get in right now. Then after that I received a email stating the same and they wanted to know what I would like to do next.

I called back and decide to drop the switch and ordered another part instead with my order. They will get my echo business from here on. Right here in Ohio too. ;D


So after that I decided I would make my poulan 3400 switch work in the echo.

Opened up ground wire O that switch goes through and the plastic housing where switch goes through. All done and works like a charm.





Just waiting on a oem air filter now.

Hey if you locate any 3900 coils down your way in the piles let me know. This coil went dead too.

Here is how the coil replacement works for echo. Up to 10 years after the saw was last made. In this case 3900 was made till 1993 so the coil warranty was good to 2003

email straight from echo.
ECHO products feature a lifetime warranty on the ignition module. ECHO's liability under the "Lifetime" coverage is limited to furnishing parts for "Life" free of charge for a period of ten (10) years after the date of the complete unit's final production.The lifetime warranty is extended to the first original retail purchaser and is not transferable to subsequent owners. The ignition module must be tested and replaced by an authorized servicing ECHO dealer. *Rental units do not quality for lifetime warranty

I must just be stupid Least now I have a complete parts saw just missing a coil.

Well #2 3900 came in today and has a good coil and runs sweet. 16" too.
Figured out why the muffler was burning the chain brake too. Spring that hold handle back was bent out of shape and missing metal stop.

Gents may I ask for an opinion please?

Alls I have is this one picture. If all 3 of these saws
run, what is a fair price for them?

Additionally can anyone ID these puppies?

I'm of no help....all stihls look the same to me.

Putting a price on it is impossible without knowing model #'s. If they are all "homeower" saws....maybe $100ea

If they are pro saws...Sky's the limit. $200-$300ea???

Looks like a 021-025 and a 029 and a 038 maybe. The orange handled homeowner saws $75 to $150 and me personally wouldnt pay that. I hate those plastic saws to work on. JMO

I think the top saw is either an 028 or an 038. not worth much... heavy and old..

The two bottom saws look like the same model... 025 or MS250... again, newer, but all plastic and just an over priced homeowner saw...

here was my project for the week... I ported this sweet little cherry 4-5 years ago and never got it back together (had a burnt p/c). Got a new OEM piston and cylinder and went to town grinding her... she runs really good for a lightweight 60cc pro saw.

MS360 pro:










A video of cutting up a tree right by my house and put it through her maiden voyage. Stihl RS full chisel chain and 8T rim, set fat for break-in, kinda long video.
