Who knows Stihl Chainsaws? messed up and cooked my 044 hoping to save/rebuild

as a professional user of chainsaws rebuilt saws would not last long, but if you only use it few times a year it should be ok. the 044 was one of the best saws ever made.

I appreciate your insight. I really only use a saw like this a few times a year. I’ve had it since the 90’s and it sickens me that  I did this. I probably don’t need a 044, but I still
Want one
