So i made the mistake of letting my neighbor use my chainsaw. He returned it and never told me anything, went to use it yesterday and the chain was loose. Went to tighten it up and found out the tensioner screw is missing. Where does everyone order parts from? I think everything else is...

Looking for a new muffler /exhaust for my stihl ms 261 c-m must be in good to new condition pictures appreciated. My saw over heats so fast and i can't get all the crud off of mine

Thanks everyone for the info i was looking for. I have acquired a new bar. Sorry i was not quick on reply's as sometimes in life something happens and the forum is the last thing that matters.

Was working over the weekend noticed the Bar on my Stihl 011AV is bent. Need to replace it. I went to baileys online to see what it can handle and i didn't even see that model. Anyone have any ideas? It currently has the stock 16'' .05 3/8 low profile 55 Thanks

Thanks for the help everyone. Replaced the air filter, intake filter and drained the old fuel. took carb out cleaned it up put in good fuel and starts great now! Appreciate the help!

things have been crazy busy i still haven't had time to do any of this. Hopefully ill get to it soon

Hmm all good ideas im hoping to get a chance over the weekend to trouble shoot. I think i will drain the fuel mix up some new fuel put on a new air filter run some carb cleaner through it and see if that tends to help.

I could see that being true but it still should not need to be run full open on the trigger to start. A regular start in the on position when warm temp wise and air temp would make sense. Good idea though

Honestly I’m not sure how old it is. I bought it used off this site and I never did ask how old it was. Piston looks good no scorching. I pulled spark plug and tried to see if I’m getting a spark. Nothing. Disconnected the negative got a spark. Reconnected the negative still sparking. It’s...

So it’s been working fine for the winter season. Bought used gone through 3 tanks of gas. Cut for about 20 minutes The other day and couldn’t start it back up. Filled gas and oil bought new spark plug wouldn’t start. If It did when I would pull the trigger it died. Let rest for an hour tried...

Thanks im loving this community. They are all very helpful and there is so much information around. Thanks also for pointing out my typo... ms 269 pro would be a unicorn of a find ;)

Good luck with your 450 sale if you decide to sell your 260pro let me know Thanks!

Since you love that husqvarna so much you wouldn’t by chance want to part with that 260pro would you? For what I have around the place it would be perfect for me.

Thanks for the offers your right 550 is outa my price range. As of now I’ll hold out for the ms261 or 260 pro I really want that power versatility and weight. Wife would kill me if I tried to buy 2 saws....

For the right saw i might be able to move the price tag a bit..
