I don't know why, but it seems that every Stihl I find lately happens to be an 028. Got one yesterday from an old man who bought it new years ago. Even got the owner's manual, plus a bow and a 16" bar, files, wrenches, etc. Got it all for 100.00. He said it hadn't been run in 5 years, so I didn't think it would crank as easily as it did. I put fresh fuel in it, and it cranked up and ran good. Today, I put an 18" bar and new chain on it, and took it to the woods. It kinda lost power in the cut, and didn't run all that great(was sporadic). I think it's going to need a carb kit after all. The older 028 that had cost me so much in parts and stuff is now running great. I put 4 new AV bushings in that one, a new coil, new chain, and finally a carb kit. I did put one of the 4 028's on fee-bay the other day. Gonna keep 3.
