    Sticky chain?

    Heya folks, Got this used ms250 up and running, but still can’t get it in good working condition. Bought it a new bar and chain and using stihl oil to rule out those variables. I’m certain my chain isn’t too tight as I can pull it up enough to reveal the drive link. The chain, however, feels...

    I have a 8 year old Stihl ms250. I just replaced the engine with a brand new OEM Stihl. Everything else was from the original 8 year old saw. Currently it is hard to pull.

    Stihl MS250 non-EZ crankcase replacement with easy-start enclosure

    I'm hoping some of the regulars here can help me out on this. I have searched the forums, and found some good info, but not the exact thing I'm questioning. I purchased a MS250 from a flea market, which turned out to be a MS210C. The saw had been run without chain lubricant for quite some...

    I see lots of threads for all the Hutzl/Farmertec saws, but I haven't seen anyone put together a complete Ms 250. Anyone have any experience with the Chinese Cylinder? I did see a nice meteor nikasil set for $130 though :) I priced one today $150-175, but that changes from time to time and...
