Stihl 440 044
« on: June 24, 2013, 07:48:43 pm »
Well I am finally going to get my hands on a stihl ms440.   ;D
 
Guy from work called and wants me to go through his 440 after losing a battle with a tree today. He stated the rear handle tank etc is busted for sure.

So who has the used 440  graveyard for parts?  Just so I know where else to look when getting the parts list together.

the 044/ms440 is my absolute favorite saw. almost as light as a 50cc and packs a punch of a bigger saw.
chances are if you sit it on a shelf covered by a clean rag, it will repair itself ;D

He didnt own a 440 last time he was at the house  ::).  My poulan 3750 whooping up on his stihl 310 must have been to much for him.   ;D

The last 440 tank/handle i needed i ended up buying a new one. Used on ebay were close to a hundred bucks and new was around 125. I will never figure out why no aftermarket 440 or o44 plastic as popular as that saw is

Dont need to cheat with a 85cc poulan against his 70.7cc. I would put my poulan 445 70.7cc against it.   ;)

That suks for him. Heck he only paid $200 for like new (I heard) 440 from a guy at work.  (Was told that this morning).

I need one myself to put together the last of the three I picked up.  2 up and running.  I been watching em on Ebay for a while agree on $100 used no cracks etc.  My Dealer wants around $125 + 7% NC fee.  Probably going to just get a new one if I can't do a "Redneck" fix on the old one.  This one I'm porbably going to keep for a "Toy" allready WP an AM cyl for it.   I have several cyl (no decomp) that should cleanup if anybody needs one send PM.

Took a hit from smashed muffler to broken rear handle and tank.

Can someone get me a pic of the front lower crankcases half mating areas on the 440 please.   Swear this one looks off in that area.

going from memory, it's been about 2 years since i last ran one. are you talking about the area about an 1.5" down from the muffler? sort of looks like it was split open directly in front of the av? :)
