Here is the last of the three 670s that came to me in pieces. This one is a mess with a scored piston and cylinder. Missing the air filter...
Finishing up the clutch side - note that the thrust washer goes on first. I've seen them missing or put on under the clutch, and that can allow...
This is another 670 that came to me in pieces. It's the Cutter's Edge model that was sold to fire departments as a ventilation saw, and it looks...
Putting the 2166 back together after getting the cylinder modded a little. [ATTACH] Getting the 2nd of 3 Jonsered 670s put back together....
I've been around Jonsered saws since the late 70's, but there's always something new to learn. The 630/670 series is probably my favorite and I...
Looks like the handle has been repaired on the right side where it bolts to the tank. Pistons are available, but cylinders are NLA and hard to...
Jonsered 2159 with a nice old 24" Windsor bar, cutting up some 20" fir rounds. [ATTACH] 670 Champ that I recently brought back to life......
Picked this up from a neighbor, and it had been sitting too long with fuel in it. Needs a fuel line, filter, and a spark plug, and I think it...
I agree - the 625/670 make a great "hybrid" with the aftermarket 268 and 272 kits, and the 625's can be found fairly cheap.
Pictures of it finished up, with the big spike. This saw runs great! Hope to get out this week and cut up some 24" fir logs. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Fired up the saw last night and will get some more pictures. The intake honk with the K&N is a great sound!
The Champ was mosly a decal thing for marketing. West coast versions came with the wrap handle and the K&N filter. The Champs I have run...
You can pressure test the carb before you put the metering side back on, and see right away if you have a leak from the inlet needle or maybe from...
It's hard to find good used mufflers for these, so I take the aftermarket jungle mufflers, braze the round outlet shut, and put on a side...
Last winter I picked up 3 Jonsered 670s in pieces, and figured I'd get at least 2 running. Starting here with the 670 Champ. [ATTACH] Bearings...
I think that's like working on a car and the wrench always falls in the pan of oil or antifreeze.
Lots o' top handles there ... I don't see any Swedes.
It's pretty hard to beat a nice running 359 or it's red brother the 2159.
I helped a friend build a small place using PEX piping and put drains at the low points. Lowest temp is about 5 degrees in January and February....
