Sounds like it needs carb adjustment won't idle with chain brake on

my work blocks CL, what are they asking for it?

$100 or make me an offer wants it gone

I got 50 doing nothing! (Bet its gone by now though)

anything he'll take is a good deal. IMO, even $150 isn't bad for a good running one, and this doesn't sound like it needs much. I'm partial to the 028, though. Arguably the best saw stihl ever made, lol.

the good ones never last long. definitely a case of "you snooze, you lose"

Always best to call do not leave it up to an email. Be there first and make that deal even if full price. I lost out on 2-372's for 200.00 both running! Still kick my self over that one I called to and stop for gas. Beat by 10 min's and he sold them for 175.00.

Yeah I missed a 461(think they are like grand new) 3months old for $500 last week.
we'll see if this guy replies.

$ 100.00 I'd buy it even if needed a clutch. A C

More like a clutch rebuild/replacement. Still could be a fantastic saw for well under $200.
