Anybody know this saw? I can't find info. Stihl site has no manual...could it be known as another model #?

Stihl chainsaw with case needs a coil and points and condenser asking $35
 
Owner got back to me...it's 015L.
 
And it does have a "points style" coil, which are $50 used, if you find one. This is a pass.
 
This was Stihls first "homeowner" grade saw. There were a ton of them made, and there's a ton of them sitting in garages not running. My dad has 2, one that he sent to the shop many times, would get it back, and it would run fine for a day or so and quit. There was a time I wanted to take them off his hands and fix them, now I think I'd rather have a Wild Thing than an 015.
 
Good info, bassJAM. The coil, points and condenser bothered me.
 
We tried them years ago when I was at the tree service as an alternative to the old 020s. Never really worked as well as the 020.
