       The very low use IMO, MS290 hadnt been used for 2 years too.
       Dumped old mix and all looks good after checking things. All
       still like new.
       Original owners son will be very happy to get his dads saws
       again. Glad a friend referred me to him.

       I just finished up a MS 290 not to long ago that had the nipple
       broke off for the oiler.    I bought a used crankcase on ebay
       and transferred everything over from the old crankcase to the
       new used one.    I thought about trying to press a piece of
       brass in but did not.    Not a bad idea though.

       What a cluster [emoji12]
       Guy loaned stihl 039 out to one of his workers.  Looked like
       been trenching.
       Fixed the broken recoil and removed the boot lace used to try
       and fix part of that and broken handle.
       Replaced a missing old school tank vent. Made it up.
       Then it will just back fire. Soooooooo
       Sheared fly key. Issue is the fly nut will loosen part way and
       then just spin. Never had to figure that one out. Can’t figure
       out out to remove the spinning stripped out fly nut. Ideas?
       Can tight back but need to line fly up for timing.
       Got alot of ideas to try on CRG last night.

       Cutting and chisel worked. Also learned the little plastic
       poulans use same flywheel threads and nut worked. Since fly
       sheared key off lined back up and pray.
       Now if it holds. I cleaned both sides and was scared to go to
       tight. So hand tighten as good as I could just using 1/4”
       ratchet. Using orange loctite.
       Crank thread were fubarred. Nut threads was gone. Just enough
       threads to tighten at lower area.
       Thanks for the ideas yesterday. 😎👍

       Didnt hold. Think the inside of flywheel had scuffed to much.
       Ordering new fly and nut.
