thanks but I literally fill the saw set it down and 10 minutes later there is a small puddle of oil on the ground. Checked hoses, checked for cracks in the oiler. The only thing I can think of is the oil fill cap was leaking but not 100% sure.

Thanks but what about the statement I said about the adjuster...does that sound like it is broken?

Ok so my chainsaw has been leaking some bar oil(I find small puddles of it when I let it sit). It is a Stihl ms201T. So I have watched videos on a MS200 (which is very similar) to check different things. It appears most of the oil was actually leaking from the fill cap so I replaced that rubber...

Thanks but I can still get ethanol free premium fuel near me and when I do have to cut up a tree I use a LOT of gas so those pre-mix fuels can be costly. Usually what I do is I keep 1 gallon of fuel on hand with premium stihl oil over the summer months, I change this gas out every 3 months (so...

I do not use my saws on a regular basis. I have a 201t which probably gets used the most (every year during hunting season to trim limbs for treestands). The other saws I have, only get used when a tree falls on my property across a trail. This happens on average once or twice a year which means...

wow ok I didn't realize that is what it meant...good thing I came here and asked!

Thanks. I just checked YouTube and found videos on a ms200 oil pump. Would these be similar to how you would take apart the ms201t?

All, I have a 201T which I use only to trim limbs in a trees on a rare occasion (mainly for treestands to be honest). I do not work on saws but I am slightly mechanically inclined. Anyways, I got this saw at an estate sale so have no history on it. It runs well and I have been using it off and...

All, I know this is a chainsaw forum but I figure the engines must be similar and im looking for advice on engine break-in for the new weedeater we purchased. Every chainsaw I have ever purchased has been used or slightly used so I have never had to brake one in. We just purchased a Stihl 131r...

Hello all. I am trying to see if there are budget friendly bars for a 20” husqvarna 365 special and a 25” stihl 460. I am not a logger nor do I cut firewood. I use these saws only to cut up tree which have fallen on my property. I’d say maybe 1-2 trees a year so I do not need the best of the...

My wife and I live on 120acres. In the past year we have lived here multiple trees have fallen down due to differing reasons (weather, snow, wind...etc). I have ruined a few chainsaw chains due to hitting the ground. After researching it would seam a log roller or log jack would be a nice tool...

I’ll post pics later if I can

I am trying to sell a Husvaqrna rancher which I bought used (in excellent condition). One potential buyer asked me how old the saw was. Is there a way to tell? If not, when did the 450 series even come out? Thanks!

Thanks for the info. Any thoughts on what bar/chain combo I should go for?

I’m pretty sure it is a 14” bar. I’ll have to measure later. If that is the case I have found some 3/8 050 50dl chains but none of them say Lopro. Is that a problem?

I did check and that is the part that has worn off. It was painted on, not etched in the metal.

all, I purchased a used ms201t last year. I wanted to replace the chain on it but the paint on the bar that states what i need is missing. I believe it is the factory bar from when it was purchased. Does anyone know what chain they think i need? Thanks!

As the title states, What should I sell my Husqvarna 450 in like new condition? They appear to be about 360$ new. I was thinking 175$?

Thanks. No I have not used a stihl before this. I have noticed the off position only works intermittently and I have had to put the choke to full choke in order to get the saw to stall and shut off

I don't know if the 201t I have had been modified but dang it can cut! So I'm not sure what you are saying about being gutless. I was just cutting some hardwoods yesterday 8in diameter tree and this thing tore right through it no problem much faster than any pole saw I've used...
