Mine is 227806311. I looked it up and all I could find was it said it was between 1993-1994 any help would be much appreciated
 
4 digit series number should be on underside of clutch cover and or various places of saw body parts.

I found it, says 1125. Reason I asked is because it has Stihl 034 on the top cover but that's it I has to do a rebuild on the top end and all I could find was the 034av which the piston and head is bigger then what's on this and the cover will not fit back on now. I have found two different ones on the 034 I found one that runs the 46mm and the other runs the 48mm I'm guessing mine being the older was probably the 46mm but when I try to find it for my saw it shows the 46mm is the 026 so it's just hard to find what goes for what on this one because everything shows up for the 034av and 034av super
 
The serial number is to any piece of yard equip't, what the VIN is to your vehicle. NOTHING in the serial # will address a specific unit. The various 1100 series Stihls all have dedicated service manuals. Better to come back out of the rabbit hole, and find the data meant for the saw in hand....

IPL will show all parts for 46mm Stihl 034 and 48mm Stihl 034Super. The Stihl 034 Super is virtually the same as the Stihl 036 part for part. If I’m not mistaken there is no difference between the
034 and 034AV. AV is anti vibration

Every Stihl model is part of a series that gets assigned a series number when it goes into the R & D phase and if it makes it to production. Any parts unique to that series will have the first four numbers of the part number as the series number.
So look on the bottom of the tank housing and you will see an 11 digit number. If it starts with 1125 then the saw is a 034, 036. If it starts with 1127 it is a 029 039. And so on.
Some parts will carry over from one saw to another, and the number on the part may not be the actual part number of the replacement part, so don't try to order a part without looking it up on a current IPL.
So let us know what saw you have, MM.
