The upper AV mount?  Yeah they're prone to failure.  Usually a few NOS ones on eBay for silly prices.

Negative. It's the grip piece that sits behind the throttle trigger.

Let me know if you pick them up for parts please.

What parts?  I have a green parts saw now but not a CVA

Need the little rubber piece for the throttle handle. Seems to be a difficult part to find.

Black piece under the grip right?  Is it only on the CVA or both?

Yes, that piece. Both I believe.

Only one way to find out. Remove the pieces and try them on the other models.

There's two different rubber grip inserts.  One was used on the curved non-AV handles.  The other one was used on the straight non-AV handle, as well as on the CVA saws.  The differences between the two parts are the overall length as well as the angles that the ends are cut to.

Far left is the curved handle type that takes one style of insert.

Far right is the straight handle non-AV type.  Middle is the CVA.  Both of these types use the same grip insert.

I figured this out years ago.............both by comparing part #'s in the IPL's and by direct comparisons.

The 2 25CVA were priced to me = Both start with gas in carb. For parts or repair 50.00 plus shipping. 
Still debating it  :-\.  Need to clarify still that was 50 for both or not.  :-[

The 2 I showed earlier.

I just looked at all 3. I see what you are talking about. Thank You for info.

Now the new question is. On the CVA ones the black piece is straight up down cut.   The straight non-av one has bevels at both ends. Will it still work on the CVA for AP uses?

See where the other curved one is longer and even more beveled on the ends to fit.
