Want to Buy 026 Air Filter and other small parts...

[BrokenSVT]

My $25 026 is getting a bit of work done before I go crazy and pay someone to port her or similar.

I watched a YouTube video where someone swapped in an air filter from an MS260 something rather, and would like to do the same. My air filter cover needs some rehab anyway...

I'll defer to the pros on the rest. My 026 came with the 3 screw carb already, but I've been reading that the Walbro 194 or some such is a nice upgrade? Well anyway, I'm looking for basic bolt on parts to retrofit this old girl and get her ready for her new life.

I'm all ears! Go easy on me, as I'm a noob.

The 194/394 has a bigger Venturi than the WT22. Probably not necessary unless it's ported.

The newer MS260 style filter can be used, but you need:
An MS260 rear cover
An OEM filter-the AM ones are very restrictive
The short style tank vent-the tall black vent won't fit or needs modification.
The Compensating hole in the 260 filter needs to be plugged-or you need to swap the metering plate.

It's really not worth it. Just get an OEM flocked filter or an OEM metal winter filter if the saw is ported.

And just like that, my direction changes slightly. You guys are full of great info.

I seem to have the screen type filter. I'd love to find another, or if there's a better option with finer filtration, all the better.

 

[drf255]

Thats not the fine screen filter. Thats a worn flocked filter.

 

[drf255]

This is the correct metal filter.

 

[BrokenSVT]

Thank you! I need one of those, folks^

I have a ton of NOS parts and may have one in there, but I'll need to find the part number and then go digging. I'll let you know either way; hopefully I'll have some time this evening.

 

[BrokenSVT]

That sounds excellent! I'd be interested to know if you also had fuel and impulse lines available.

I'd love one of each, or even two of the filters if the price were great

Thank you for that! The search commences!

$40 shipped for two filters and one each of the hoses? Retail on those four items is $61.96 + tax.

Sounds great to me. Let me know what else might be laying around. Something may jump out at me.

I would, but it's not quite that easy. I have boxes of NOS parts that are loosely organized by part numbers, not model numbers, so I can't really peruse for model-specific parts. It's almost entirely small parts; I think I recall seeing some 1121 series tank vents, but not much else.

 

[BrokenSVT]

...and now my AV mounts took a crap as well. Happen to have those, @NewToStihl ?

I won't know until I look up part numbers. Which AV mounts; lowers, upper, or all of them?

 

[BrokenSVT]

Well, I went outside to play chainsaw today and found that the front lower was shredded in two. The rear lower looks rough. I'm not even sure how many there are on the saw lol! I'm so new to this...

I guess the biggest factor is price.

 

[NewToStihl]

They're all cheap for that model, so I wouldn't expect price to make much of a difference. I'll look to see what I have, but it'll probably be Thursday . . . getting late tonight and tomorrow is mowing night...

 

[BrokenSVT]

Take your time. I want it done right, not just quick.

This will be a great excuse to strip and clean it up well. I can go ahead and replace those fuel lines as well, instead of saving them for future preventive maintenance.
