Some of the plastic parts on my 034 are so worn that I can no longer make the switch that controls the choke and shut-off work. I have gone through many bars and sprockets on this one, so I was thinking that money would be better spent on a new one. That said, I may just pull it apart, clean everything, and see if I can keep it working another season. In any case, it will go in the barn with everything else.
Those 034's were good saws.....don't pitch it, somebody will buy it.
