Husky 350 seized up?

I am tearing down a husky 350 that my neighbors grandson seized up by putting in straight gas. I have gotten down to the motor attached to the bottom case and I can't figure out how to take the clutch off. Atleast I think its the clutch. the circular cup on the opposite side from the pull start. Any help? Also, Whats it take to repair this thing any usefull help for a chainsaw novice.

you may get away with fitting just the piston if the cylinder bore looks ok - try the double ring ones on ebay - these should help with compression! £30

hi . the clutch is prob left hand thread . you don't need to take it off . take the exhaust off , and look in at the piston . if you see any damage , then it is a goner . sorry .
if neat fuel has been in it , then it needs new piston and pot ,usually cheaper to buy new saw .
it happens to the best of us ! (but only once !)
