Looks like a good day to me. I'm guessing they needed intake boots?

They sure do & some heavy cleaning, I'll get some pics when i get a chance to tear into them, it looks like the intake boot melted into the intake port and someone tried to get it running, the piston is covered in disintegrated intake boot, something I've never seen, iam hoping it will clean up with some emry cloth & cleaners.

It happens and it's a mess when they get like that. I don't recall what I've cleaned that gunk up with before, probably carb cleaner or lacquer thinner.

I got a few cleaners I use, one is birchwood casey gun scrub, works wonders on bare metal & carbs, will strip the paint off the saw though if not careful, the other is super clean I get from my local store, it's a decreaser concentrate, so you have the ability of mixing different strengths.

Isopropyl alcohol does a good job of dissolving that rubber goo. Be careful though because it can mess up paint too. I usually use q-tips dipped in alcohol... lots of q-tips, but I can control better than just wiping with a dipped cloth. Dan
