Curious about the chip flap, was that a Washington Hot Saws signature?

Chip flaps came on 084's.  Some of them had them some didnt.  I had 4 of them and 2 had them.

The chip flap came on the early 084 sprocket cover. They did away with it later because over time the rubber would dry rot. They got the idea supposedly when field testing with Canadian fallers up on the islands.

We need some barns like that in Georgia!  All I find is $150 plastic fantastic with the cord ripped out, or rotted Homelite 150s with no chain.

got it running. it didn't need ignition or seals.
fixed the ignition and pulled and cleaned the culinder and piston and it runs great.
all I need now is a top cover, the little metal that goes between the muffler and case and a k&n airfilter.
chainsaws are chainsaws but stihl runs through my veins

Here is how I did my dual port cover for the 084.   Didnt like cutting up the very pricey back halves of the muffler.

Figured they got it right with the DP on the 066 and 046, so I went with that idea.
