Ok, so here's what I get for getting in a hurry (geez, does this guy ever learn?
) and working in a freezing cold shop. The kill switch is still 100% functional so I'll order a new one and carry-on here.
Man that thing looks sweet on there too. Gonna get to hear it roar soon if I can get my act together.....
Got the back end buttoned up now. That's a new air filter plate on there. (I have 1 other one that's chipped but very serviceable) Got lucky and picked up a handful of new stuff from 1 seller for cheap. I can't believe the pricing some of this stuff goes for, new parts in the OEM bags with labels.
For now, I threw on my "ok" plastics and handle. That cylinder looks pretty good, hardly would know it was chipped before right?
Are you wondering about the oil cap yet? Well it turns out the crankcase I bought is for an 046 (wasn't clearly stated as such....
) and while there is nothing wrong with using it, having a threaded oil cap and a flippy fuel cap will most likely bug the chit outta me. Yup, I have problems, I know.
I have another starter coming for this saw but I couldn't resist stringing this one up and mounting it quick.
And the moment we've all been waiting for..... she's a runner! Saw fired up on the 5th yank and ran pretty good. A slight tweak to the L screw and she idled just fine. Not going to run it much until I get the oil cap for it. But it's alive and kicking! I'll get it buttoned up this week and perhaps get a video or two up when it's all together.
And yeah, that dual port sounds awesome!
