I figured out what my problem is. the quick connect was broken and not allowing water to go through. it looks like the water sprays through the bar. no idea how though

they must be super hard to see because I can find them. thats where i figured they would be but they are hiding

I know this isn't the type of chainsaw most of you (any of you) use but was hoping some tech on this board had some experience with one. its in great condition and runs great but the water kit seems to be clogged and I can not see where the water ports are. any help would be appreciated. I...

I came across an old box of new 3/16 service line. the label says polyolflin. I can't read the brake strength but I think it says 500lbs (that seems pretty tough for 3/16 dia) and I think it say kilgore corp. service line for rocket, line throwing the inner dimentions of the box are 11"...

I am not certain there is one. from what I understand you can even take an fs130 power head or evan an fc130 (edger) power head and put the kombi shaft on it. I had been looking for a used kombi shaft to put on my fs130 power head for that reason. So I could still have a fs130 trimmer power...

Thats a very good point. but. There is also the time to put the tank on. I have not done any real work on this type of saw. if it was just a question of buying a $50 tank then that would be fine. I got a great deal on a 200t for $250. But I don't want to put the tank on. that not only means...

Even though I trim palm trees I don't know this answer. is it acidic? Thats the key to knowing how too or wether it needs to be stopped. Acid corrodes for longer times than you can see. the reaction slows so it is not noticeable but the corrosion kkeps happening. IT could also be a very...

Is there a way to stop the corrosion? I'm not sure if the palms are acidic or its some other chemical reaction. I think ammonia neutralizes acid.

He JUSt rebuilt it. I mean like the week I bought it. But I also found out he works at a stihl dealer completely by accident and he probably gets the parts a cost and I am betting he has done this a few times so I'm gonna keep it. fearofpavement: I think he used the quick set stuff as he...

thats sound advice. I thought $200 was a good price with the new parts. I let it idol for 5 minutes then warmed it up some and let it sit and idol a little more. Seems like its doing good but like you were saying only time will tell. Any one think a slow leak to be dangerous? maybe...

no scope of any kind. I have not had too much of a problem with the palm dust and fibers corroding my saw. I know what your talking about and have seen it but it was on larger saws that were used to cut down cabbage palms and then were never cleaned. not to say it doesn't happen from...

I purchased a used ms200t. it has a new piston and cylinder, supposedly oem, new oil pump and worm gear, new clutch and new air filter. It has 155 comp and does not appear to have been used since the rebuild (he said it hadn't been also) so the rings have not seated yet. starts up and runs. I...

ok. thanks. I'm gonna see if he still has the old studs.

I forgot the ts part. its a ts510 av unless its a ts s10av. but I am pretty sure its a 5 and not an s. I was going to buy a s10 chainsaw and thought it was a 510 so i know what you mean there.

I own a 510av and it works good but I think the bearings are going. I have a friend who will give me his ts 510 with a bad cylinder and piston. will my 510av jug fit on the ts510? Now. I can also get a free after market piston and cylinder from a ts760. will it work on the ts510?

I never used the 201 but the stihl dealer I deal with said none of the arborists who bought from him liked it at all.

Could the guy who replace everything put the piston in backwards? not sure what effect it would have but I know one way is correct and the other isn't

The handle has a big crack in it and is chewed up literally. he says his dog was in the garage and chewed on it so its pretty rough. and I know him. we sell each other parts cheap some times hence the price. I repaired a 290 brake handle with aluminum and pop rivits and it is still...

Ok that narrows my options down. I talked to some one who had a 660 handle that was in rough shape but was cracked and not broken. I repaired a friends ms290 handle with aluminum and pop rivits and was going to do the same for him for his 460 but we have no handle. This 660 handle was only...

thanks. So logic says that a 660 handle won't fir a 460. is there ever a case where the part number is that different but the two parts are almost identical?
