Two ms200t p&cs plus a whole lot of oil pumps tanks and clutches.
I like jig saw puzzles , especially when its a chainsaw puzzle.

All of the bits that weren't there are and farmertec except for the throttle linkages and carb cover. I had to make the throttle linkages, out of old bike spokes, and I found the carb cover on the NZ trading site (cost me $45) the throttle linkages I just couldn't find, even new and they were a major pain to get right. I'm still missing the rubber bit at the base of the handle.
The handle was ok, it didn't fit quite right , it leans over to one side slightly but its hard to notice and you don't notice when using it.

My question stems from their reason for not having the 200t kit on the market. I would have to go back over many messages but I recall it being the way the handle attached. Good on ya

I would imagine that the handle is giving them grief. If they had the throttle bits and electrical contacts etc that would have made life much easier, also I'm picking its the fibre and resin side handle that is the problem, I think its shrunk slightly after manufacture, and that pulls it all to one side. But the quality is much better than the other copy bits I've seen

Yeah, but in your dollars that's only $26 or so and Stihl parts in nz are frightening.

And I figure I've saved another saw and I have the important spares, and it has cost me less than $150 (nz)
And the motor is something else, its an angry little beast! First thing the wife said "that sounds powerful"

You do realise one of them is upside down? Not that it was me that noticed though....

Yeah.
But it looks like a mod did too, as a few parts of the post, including the pic of the fridge got removed?
What....are we guys heathens?

In other news the original Stihl carb on the 200t won't hold a tune. Vac checked the saw again this morning and the new seals are fine, and it will run on its side etc but after about five minutes work it needs retuned to idle correctly. I pulled it to pieces and cleaned it and that helped a little so I guess a rebuild should sort it. Genuine carb here runs almost $400
