    I just bought a 242XP that is missing the throttle linkage & choke linkage. Any idea what other Husky saws would match up as 242XP parts are tough to find.

    I use a piece of SS wire for my old Husqy 61.
    Bent it close to the right shape, working OK :)

    Thanks Dave, I found some parts on the bay, if they don't work that will be next.

    Makes me think I should look for a broke Husqy 359
    To have for future parts.

    I need a new hobby :picard:
    LOL
