    Cold start troubles: The little Stihl 011 that couldn't.

    My 009 was hard to start( i think ther pretty much the same saw) when cold too. I turned the low jet out some and it really helped the cold start. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    026 to pro oiler clutch drum prob

    I always thought that washer was to keep chips away fron seals and engine. Never thought about the springs letting go. Good info. Thanks Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    026 to pro oiler clutch drum prob

    Did you try without the big dust washer? I only ask cause i just rebuilt a 039 that never had the washer either and i ordered one. Put it on and nothe would line up propperly. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Milling ash

    My hardwood floor is all ash that my buddy and I milled on his bandsaw mill. Turned out real nice. I have never tried it with the chainsaw mill yet. Wanna get a log someday and try. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Best bar for milling with ms261

    As said already too small will just ruin the poor little saw. I use my 038 mag if not too big a log but i also have a 066 for bigger logs. Its a very addictive hobby so might as well hite the bullet and get a bigger saw. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Stihl ms261c or bigger?

    As mentioned already 026 is pretty much the same as the 261. I was using my 50 cc saws a lot the past few years and just recently started using my 70 cc saws. I can cut alot more wood in a shorter time with the 70cc then the 50 if im cutting 16 to 20 inch stuff. Sent from my SM-G950W using...

    Hot weather chainsaw tuning??

    After running do you just shut off? I always let mine idle for a 30 seconds or longer to help it cool down Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk
