- '85 CJ-7, 258/4.2L 6cyl. Bought new in 1985. Full cage, Warn 8274 winch, Ford 9" rear, front/rear Detroit Lockers w/4:88 R&P. T-5 tranny and 4:1 t'case. 33X12.50-15 BFG/AT, MSD ign, on board air---
Found a Stihl 009 on craigslist. I'm sure it's related to the 109 saws we have today. It's a top handle arborists saw. The old girl has been used some and the brake needs some work. It runs well, but I'm sure the carb could use some cleaning out. The blade is new along with a new chain. The guy wants $125 for it and it seems like a decent deal to me. Even better he has another 009, it doesn't run as well, he will sell it for $75. I haven't touched them yet. Would that be a decent deal on one of these saws?
How close is you nearest Stihl dealer?
All I have ever used/owned is Stihl. Very best there is.
BTW: Use premium fuel only with the oil.
Go to Wal-mart and get some Seafoam spray and a can of gas additive.
The Seafoam spray should get the saw run'n 'rite'.
