357XP fair price? |
|

--------------------------------------------------------- |
|
I finally bought a new 562 XP to replace my old 357 XP. A local |
|
hardware store was Husqvarna dealer is selling his business and |
|
wanted to clear out inventory. He gave me $100 off list price |
|
for the 562, so I grabbed it. |
|
A good friend is interested in my old 357XP. I lent it to him to |
|
try out. I got it used years ago, deleted the automatic |
|
compression release and replaced the plastic intake clamp |
|
replaced with the metal one. I've not had any significant issues |
|
with it since replacing the coil a few years ago. The only |
|
problem if which I'm aware is that it leaks bar oil. There is |
|
always a little puddle under it when I pick it up. It starts |
|
easily and runs well - though it is old: 2005 model year. I |
|
don't have a compression tester, but when hanging from the |
|
starter cord (B&C installed and tanks full) it barely makes it |
|
past the compression "hump" when I let it hang free - and |
|
sometimes stops at the compression hump (though if I shake it a |
|
bit it will move past). |
|
Any suggestions on what would be a fair price to ask? |

No issues ready to cut 3-4 for a 357. I would guess it would |
|
bring. 3 if he is a good friend. |

John, a new and updated oil line will solve the leak issue. He |
|
can always address that later if he wants. |

Thanks, Spike. I did that replacement on my Jonsered 2152, |
|
thanks to your help on another site. I just replaced the outer |
|
oil line. I'm thknking I may need to replace the one running |
|
from the tank to the pump, since that saw is still leaking a |
|
bit. My 357XP did not leak for years, but started a year or two |
|
ago. I just haven;t gotten around to poking aorund in it yet. |

For the 357XP that line just the outer line, running from the |
|
pump to the bar oiler outlet, or should I also be looking at the |
|
part from the tank to the pump? Replacing just the outer line |
|
did not solve the problem on my 2152. |
