    Want to Trade Want To Trade For Cordless

    Due to a recent injury I think I should have a cordless saw for general maintenance around my place. I'd like to trade off a larger saw that I won't be using anymore. In the old days I would have just gone down to my local saw shop and made a deal, but my local saw shops are hardware stores now...

    My shoulders are shot. I want a cordless saw for thinning and pruning soft woods, 16" minimum bar length, quality tool, light and powerful. Preferably from pro shop so I can trade in a gas saw that I can't start anymore, everything I have is Stihl. I've been searching this site and others but...

    Intermittent Spark MS200T

    My Ms200T has developed an intermittent no spark condition, oddly it's not heat related, once running it always seems to restart. When it's cold it sometimes won't fire, then when I'm troubleshooting it, it suddenly starts working. I removed, cleaned, and replaced, the module today and got it...

    Stihl dealer withouts parts or service

    I live just outside a medium sized city in WA. Most of the Stihl dealers here are Ace hardware stores, a new one opened up near me a couple years ago, they are now listed as a Stihl dealer and have a big Stihl sign outside. Today I called them to see if they had a small part I need and was told...

    Chinese Carb Kits

    When working on a Chinese carb (Zama) is there any point in buying a name brand OEM Chinese kit over an aftermarket Chinese kit? I don't buy Chinese carb kits for non Chinese carbs.

    How do I know when to rebuild my Stihl?

    I have two 036 Pros that I bought used, one is much more used than the other, it works ok but it takes a few more pulls to start and doesn't have quite the power of the better one. Now that I'm shut down for the summer I put a compression gauge on the weaker saw, I could only get 140psig. My...

    Want to Buy Obsolete Stihl Part

    Part # 1125 656 1500, it's the rear plastic guard for the clutch cover of an 034. It's retained with a screw, and no the current part that ends with 1501 won't work.

    Stihl Oil Tank Vent

    I have an 036 that leaks oil from the tank vent. I've poked around in the vent hole trying to get it to seal with no luck. I can order a new valve and drive the old vent valve into the tank to remove it, but how am I going to get the new valve started in its bore so I can drive it in without...

    Want to Sell Homelite XL2

    Sorry no photos yet, I'll bring it home tomorrow. It looks like this one but with longer bar (16" I think), without nose guard. I'd say it's about 85-90% of new condition. Starts and idles well, has been used very little, in matching plastic case. $60.00 FOB Spokane, WA If you're interested...

    026 Stihl Clutch Drums

    I see advertisers listing two different drums for the 026 depending on whether it's for an older unit with a fixed oil pump, or a newer adjustable pump that's driven by the clutch drum. My question is why isn't there just one replacement that can drive an adjustable pump, or not if you don't...

    026 Air Filter Upgrade

    I'd like to upgrade an old 026 the newer style, larger, air filter. There are several threads on doing so here but the photos seem to be gone from them all. My only hang up is the fuel tank vent. I've read suggestions of using 064, 066, and MS660 vents but when I look them up I find multiple...

    044 Compression Release

    Old age seems to be robbing me of grip strength. I have a very early 044 and if I'm not concentrating on gripping the starter handle, particularly if my hands are wet or sweaty, my hand slips off when starting. Of course this condition will get worse before it gets better. I put an Elastostart...

    What's the deal with my 034 Stihl?

    I bought it in the late 80s to replace an 032. It has never really impressed me, it vibrates more than my 026 Pro or my 044, it just doesn't feel good, or smooth, when cutting. I replaced the handle with the plastic 036 part and updated the clutch/rim sprocket to the larger splines. I'm not sure...

    MS200T Power Loss

    My ten year old MS200T starts, idles, accelerates and revs to 14,000 rpm, but bogs down in a heavy cut. I've been using the saw almost daily recently and it seemed to happen overnight. When I noticed it I cleaned the air filter and put on a fresh chain, that didn't help. I read here about...
