    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    So I assembled everything last night and so far so good! Thanks to Ron for the new used cover! Matches perfectly to the "patina" of the saw. One thing I left is the spring for the ignition - I think that got bent some because turning the saw off is hit or miss sometimes. Need to monkey with...

    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    Thanks for all the advice everyone. I am going to do the clutch upgrade first and replace the springs. Then run it to ensure everything is working fine before I order the rest of the parts RWoods - thank you for the extremely generous offer - PM will be sent!

    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    So did some simple green, toothbrush and q-tips. So it looks like some grooves in the oil pump and line - but nothing leaking at this point. So is that wire bent down? I tried taking a side shot to show if it has any curve to it. Or was the broken spring allowing the edge of the clutch to...

    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    I will check the crank and inspect the clutch. I read about the bearing upgrade kit - 1125-007-1041. Figure I might as well do that if I get a bearing anyway....

    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    Right off the bat the washer and e-clip were missing.... Then i saw one of the springs was broken in the clutch. The needle bearing looked...uhhhhh...interesting..... And the inside was filthy. Can I spray the inside down with carb cleaner or something else? So looking at a parts diagram I...

    Picked up a Stihl 036 pro - need some help...

    Hi all, So I picked up a 036 Pro for $50. It sat for a while the guy said. I put some fresh gas in it and got it started! Yeah! Attached is the pics of the saw. Then I took the bar off to clean it some and then started poking around. Not sure how many pics can be attached so I will...

    Just picked up a stihl 241c - what should I know?

    Thanks for the replies. Pretty sure it is not stolen. Nice enough guy in a decent area. Was just cleaning out his garage and sheds (and it showed - stuff everywhere) as he was moving. I will check with the local stihl dealer and ask if has had any inquiries

    Just picked up a stihl 241c - what should I know?

    Hi everyone, Just picked up a 241C for $100 around the corner. Seemed like a decent deal - started right up and did a test cut well. I have 2 Husqvarna's and this is my first Stihl - anything I should know about it?

    can you upgrade a regular 441 to m-tronic?

    Does not sound too bad. Anyone have a rough idea on part costs?

    can you upgrade a regular 441 to m-tronic?

    I agree that nothing is wrong with a standard carb. Just more of a curiosity thing for possibly down the road. Thanks for the price recommendation!

    can you upgrade a regular 441 to m-tronic?

    Hi, New here and was wondering if this could be done? I have a line on a regular 441 for a good price but wondering if I should keep looking for an m-tronic. I am not a professional user, by the way.... On that note, what is a fair price for a good condition (non commercial use) ms441 these...
