What was wrong with the saw? if there is nothing wrong with the P/C why replace them just swap rings and crankseals.

While she has been a pile of bits and only replacing one seal is not the way to go, saws require love and dedication, wait till the dealer could get the other seal and replace both. Cos i bet in a short time the other one will go and then its another strip down and rebuild for the sake of...

More infomation needed, Is it a pipe or a crack in the tank?

Check this one out on Ebay uk 280461467475 i dont know how to post the link but thats the auction number. Sounds like he has owned the saw ages and needs saws for work, then check his feedback. He must buy and sell saws because this 034 he is selling he bought on Ebay in late 10 days ago.

Here, I pour it into a 5 gallon can, then when its full i pour it over the bonfire as it get built up more and more. The fuel soaks into the bonfire and seems to stay there. Then come bonfire night (november 5th) what ever the weather our fire burns like there is no tomorrow.. Thing is with all...

Good on him and everyone else that gives their time to help others. Not just natural disasters but in everyday life, there are so many people that dont get recognised or the credit they deserve. Many people rely on the great and the good just so they can live their lives to the best of their...

He is a general hardwear shop, 2 years ago he would accept returns and not ask for payment up front, but people was ordering things from him and not turning up to collect them leaving him out of pocket cos he says stihl wont take the items back.

Happy New Year Everyone. Will the oil pump drive worm gear from a 023 fit a 017 saw? I need one to finish my 017, my stihl dealer says they are different part numbers but they are compatable, he cant get one for a 017 but he can for the 023. The old one for my saw went missing so ive not got...

Is the choke in the airfilter working correctly?

Same thing happened to my Dad. 16 years ago he got finished with a small amount of severance pay, 28 years of working at the same place. He said he was fine about it but everyone knew he was absolutely mortified. He was in the same situation, house paid off, pension pot full and enough money...

There is a 028 intake manifold listed on Ebay uk.

Chain not moving, no chips? Buy him some PPE and start him young. LOL

Is the date stamped on the bar the month and year? i.e. 08 64

I dont mind saying what i paid at all, The total cost including vat at 15% was £137 for all four. Ive just had a real good look at the contra and think its the original bar, it has the stihl logo embossed onto it.

I buy, rebuild, part out and sell. I do it part time as i work shifts in the Aerospace industry 3 days on 4 days off. Building and parting out saws, brushcutters, blowers and the like keeps me sane and active, if i didnt have my workshop and my tools i would crack up, its kind of therapy for me...

The dealer i use for ordering parts is spot on, Mike who works the parts counter is always helpful weather i order in person or over the phone. When the parts arrive in the morning post he always telephones and says they are ok to be picked up. Never have i been asked to pay for parts upfront...

Found it, Chance your arm its only 50 quid, could be something simple or it could be a whole host of problems. Its a good way to learn. If it is too much of a PITA to repair, part it out on Ebay and get your money back, You could even make a profit.

Can you post a link or item number of the auction so i can have a look at what its like.

Ive just sold this carb on Ebay, Walbro WT426A032 i sold it as a 026 carb because that was the saw it came off, the buyer says its form a 028 saw. Is he correct, i have a suspicion he is trying to pull a fast one by returning a carb he dosnt want and keeping the one i sold him and getting a refund.
