Chainsaw Repair

Someone else removed these, I got them in a horse trade. He may have received them in a horse trade also?

The holes go all the way through into the muffler area.

You can make up a drill rod or piano wire driver and tap the drive screws out from the muffler cavity after you remove the muffler.

Be careful and save the pins. They are available at some hardware stores or McMaster-Carr but you don't need the trouble.

I once bought a brand new looking 357XP from the local dealer knowing that it had a new case from a crushing accident. A week or so later I discovered there's no serial tag on it. Nice chainsaw though.
