The oil line isn't hard at all if heated up.

Blsnelling you must be one of those guys that's just good at doing mechanical things...I wanted to throw my saw out the window when I did mine. Dan I hope it goes well for you. As you know I sliced my finger and still didn't get the damn line to drop over the second barb!!
It would be nearly impossible without heat. You can't even get it over the barbs. Heat is your friend.

I agree...I let it boil while I drank two beers and that bastard still fought me...I will reiterate that I'm am a legitimate idiot and if it can be screwed up I'll find a way to screw it up. I'm sure dan will have no problem and make me look like an even bigger whiney idiot hahaha

Did you use pliers like they say to with the hole in them too?
I would use the heat gun on it myself.
No special tools were used.

I'm glad I don't have to put an oil line on my 028. It looks like a pain. Well done though!

did you use the spring? it spossed to keep it from kinking ain't it?
Well I guess I tried to put it in a little too late. I might have to redo the oil line.
I dont like how the oil line went in last night! After sitting at work all day thinking about it I decided I didnt want it in there like that. A new one is ordered and Mike has a spare that im going to use on round two of Dan v Stihl oil line!
P.S. Its really good to have friends that hoard parts!
