It must be cactus, send it to me, I will give it a loving home in its retirement.Well I had a well respected, long time Stihl dealer that has served loggers everyday for years the said it "was operating as it should" and found no problem. It had a clean piston and strong compression when pulling the starter.
I aint been here long but don't worry about your correct gramma Justin,2dogs didn't even have the common courtesy to refer to you using your forum name of "stihl cutter" let alone anywhere near answer your posted question,i somehow like the older saws,i don't run them for a living but they are a bit like old cars?the simpler times?a bit heavier and slower,but still got grunt when its needed,the only stihl I have is an 038 av super and its my favourite saw,ill bet itll run with any equivalent new saw?it hauls ass and spews noodles like any saw should,its just old.

Do all 076 stihl saws have the oil cap on the front on side or did 075s have the cap on side as well i heard the 075s only had caps on top.No vurries

Near twice the chain speed??The 066 will cut circles around the 076. The 066 at 6.8hp is close enough in horsepower to call the same vs 7, and with damn near twice the chain speed.
Ken Oth.Had an 076 from new 1985 - 2002 and 066 from new 2002 to present day.
I didn't find the 066 ran all over the 076 in any area except being lighter to carry
round the bush.
The 076 was a torquey saw and did a heap of work for me cutting fence posts, cattleyard
rails 20ft long x 9-10" wide x 2" thick freehand, plus the usual firewood, falling and fencing.
They are both good saws.
I was looking at 1 and he says its an 075 but has no name tags an has manual oiler button on top full wrap an oil cap on the side how can i tell em apart it does have the chain brake/ guard provision.The 075 was the predecessor of the 076 and initially came without chain brake (oil filler on top like the early 051). With the introduction of the chain brake and a new crank case the filler was moved to the side... This version is largely identical with the 076.
Near twice the chain speed??
What rpm is your 066 running?
The 076 is a grunt saw. Great with a 41" bar.
