I picked up a ms170 for $2.00 two years ago ,looked in the exact condition of your picture (brand new ,never cut a thing) yet it had almost no compression .I guess they wear out quickly when you run straight gas in your brand new saw .$35.00 later and bought a brand new Chinese ebay engine for it and it has cut dozens of cords of firewood ever since .Thats a very good saw if you don’t need anything bigger .Do you know when the Stihl days is going to start this spring ?I want to buy another saw and am waiting for them to go on sale ?

i dont know to be honest.... it may already be on, i just fix em...LOL

and yes, i played with it a bit, and its a very strong little 30cc saw... if i need any more oomph, i can pull out the 40cc poulan, the 54cc homelite, or the big granddaddy 94cc stihl 056 magnumII....LOL tell ya what that 056 is like a hot knife thru butter when it comes to hardwoods.... little bit heavy though, tipping the scales around 23# without the bar....

I paid a bill today. Does that count?

I received a bill for $3.30 in the mail Monday. It appears that at my last doctor visit they forgot to charge me my co-pay of $3.30. I decided to make a run into the city and take care of it.

None to worry. You'll eventually reach an age where nothing is hard.
