Good friend stops in with 268/272 no start.
Also wanted chain touched up.
Need to see if the coil is going out. Didnt have time to run it for 30mins straight. Sent back out with him to test with chain sharpened.
Also 353 to look over said smoking from recoil area. LOL needed cleaned bad = getting hot. Plus very dull chain needs sharpened.
Cash is king but sometimes I prefer things made in TN ;). Plus the 30pak not my choice of brew but it was bonus.  ;)

Was having a few brews in the work area yesterday with a firewood cutter with 3 saws in tow. He is getting little older and just a tad over a year from retirement. So the heavier bigger saw was cut from his stable. He had 71cc 62cc 52cc
Anyhow I somehow ended up with a 1987 husqvarna 268XP with aftermarket 272 topend and newer style clutch cover. Plus some bars and chains.
The 268 is SE on black metal tag and XP on covers.

Last time it will see a 24" I tested with yesterday. 

Guy wants it in 2 weeks for his dads birthday. Setting up with 18" 

If it stayed around I was going to put the oem 268xp 50mm closed port topend on it.

Picked up a homeowner owned 1993 husqvarna 268 yesterday to fix up and flip.

They had put a aftermarket carb on it. AFM recoil too.  Wrong tensioner bolt so switched in a husky bolt.

Fixed the cheaply made recoil so pulley worked, got running but going to look for oem carb and recoil.
