Service tech @ Stihl dealer found scored piston on my poorly running 200T.
Most likely diagnosis...too lean fuel/oil mix? I had been using whatever oil I found wherever I happened to be, but will now use only Stihl oil. Also, after reading in here will switch to syn.
I don't want to start another mix thread, here is my real question:
Is it possible to repair the piston/cylinder on the ms200 w/o actually buying the new parts? I did get a new saw, and hopefully will treat it right..., but for now the old one is for parts only unless it can be fixed up cheaper.
