Partner 400 CHEAP!
« on: April 20, 2014, 02:46:39 am »
Stopped by the local auction house Friday night.
Hadn't gotten more than 10 feet inside the door when something yellow caught my eye.
I first thought it was going to be a 5000 Partner and my ears perked up a bit.
As I got closer I could see it wasn't a 5000 but a nice little Partner nonetheless.

When I finally moseyed over to it turned out to be a 400.
I didn't know there was such a critter, but it looked to be pretty nice under the grime.
The auctioneer said it was guaranteed to run, so for $20.00 it came home with me.
As I left the auction house I tried to start it and it would start but not run.
I figured carb kit and fuel lines/filter, but when I got it home I saw that the fuel line was kinked. It appeared that the line was leaking and someone had pulled it up through the case a bit and kinked it.
I reached in the tank with a pair of hemostats and pulled the line down a half inch and it started and ran.
Adjusted the carb and it seems to be doing fine.

Partner 400 is basically a Husky 40 of the 40-45-49 series.

The P400 is known as the first saw with a plastic case, and was the first saw in a "family" that consisted of the P400, P410, P450, P460, P490, P510, Jonsered 2041, 2045. 2050, and Husky 40, 45 and 49.
