I concur. My dad bought me my first Stihl an 021 back in early 1990s, maybe 1993. It came with the gray case like this. All his other saws purchased during that timeframe have the gray cases. Now they have all changed to Stihl orange, but pretty much the same case with a little improvement...

I'll have to pull the carb to see exactly, but looking at the IPL the flange that looks identical with 4 screws is this one. 19 ✻ 4140 120 2200 1 Flange ↦ 1 48 411 908 (26.2001) Backhoelover, Tell me more if you can. Should I try an buy a new flange listed above or which exact carb should I...

Thanks. I've done my share of kits and couldn't see in my head how it would help this issue. Was just looking for confirmation just to make sure. Appreciate it. Figured someone would know for sure.

Have an old HS45 that runs very well and does it's job well. The only issue I have with it is it leaks mix out of the carb primer purge. It makes for a mess over time even with an air compressor to blow all the junk collected away. The question is where the leak is at, right where the brass...

I've got an oldie but goodie... Stihl BG72 IPL and service manual if available. Got one in parts the other day, cleaned everything up and ready to reassemble, shouldn't be too much of a puzzle for me, but at least an IPL would probably save me some time. Thanks.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Hope this helps someone like me who was trying to figure out what is needed for these screws. I found somewhere else online that a 3 or 4mm hex nut adapter might work depending upon the brand. I'm guessing the thinness of the tool makes a...

Again I searched, but only found one or two things talking about the new tool for the Stihl carbs. I found a part number that is supposed to be the latest hex carb tool for Stihl carbs. Took that to my dealer, and one is on order. Fingers crossed the Stihl Special Police don't lurke here on a...

My dam dealer has been switching my plugs out with NGK then. Nah. They've been using NGK or Bosch for as long as I remember. I get some with NGK and some with Bosch. My latest two are NGK.

Since nobody wants to play... Here's the best one I could find. Good luck. It's even on an MS 250. How to replace the chainsaw's fuel filter - YouTube

Sorry. I did a bit of searching, but not much found. I haven't purchased new Stihl toys in a while, probably 5 years now, and when I do, I see things I've never seen before. I have no need to tinker with these yet, but curious what I have. I purchased a new FS130 and BR600 Magnum. They seem...

Hey buddy. Have a question regarding a BR600 (NON Magnum) older POS I have. I broke down the other day and decided to let my dealer have some money and got me a brand new Magnum. I'm literally tired of working on that old POS I won by accident on Ebay. (Was trying to bid another user...

So, I have to go with the Stihl FS130 if you want bike handles. Reason is I'm scheduled to pick mine up around lunch tomorrow. So, I hope I made the right choice... I'm pretty sure as I've had an FS110R for the past 4 years or so. It has been a great trimmer, and still works great, but I was...

Thank you sir. I'll try another dealer and see what the result is. Disappointed as I expected to get similar discounts for being a repeat customer, but understand if it sells at that price, then it sells.

Are the Stihl dealers forced to fix prices now for some reason? I made a large purchase a few years back and got a great deal on my equipment. Wasn't DSRP. I just visited the same dealer to resolve a recall issue with the flippy caps on one of those items. Left him a list of a couple of...

So. Still trying to figure this thing out. Pulling my hair out. I've even bought new stuff to try to diagnose. Picking up a new 3/8 .50 16 inch bar from dealer on Monday. New rim sprocket, chains didn't seem to make any difference. I don't think it's a bar either, but never hurts to have...

So, what type gas mix goes in those hotrods? Sorry old pal, couldn't resist. 'Preciate all the help as I was learning. See you round here now and again... Take care.

SWEEEEEEEEET. Well, maybe. Where are the MS441's made? Or did I just get lucky with a serial number starting in 1? All my other Stihl stuff starts with 2, new and old...

Hey guys. Looking for an MS260 service manual. My original one seems to have become corrupted for some reason and backups restore the corrupted version. Must have happened when I reimaged a while back. Thanks. Am also in the same boat for HS45. I THINK all my others have made it through...

Looking for an SH85 C blowervac ipl if possible. Also a service manual would be great if available. Sorry if this is only for chainsaws. I have most of my saws ipls manuals, ect. Thanks in advance.

Yeah Tommie. Good to see you're still around too. I know they get warm, but I'm telling ya this is hot. I used the saw for less than 10 minutes and it locked up tight on me. After it cooled, it was all good again. I'm with you. The bar is holding up well due to the heat. I've seen what...
