Hey all,
A few months back, I got an MS025 that had been raw gassed. I got it running but it quickly lost power and had minimal compression. I priced the Stihl parts out at well over $250. I turned to EBay and found a someone selling aftermarket parts kits complete with piston,cylinder,bearings,seals and more for around 65 bucks.
When I tore the engine down, I found that the oil seals and bearing had failed and the seals had discolored.
I am about to rebuild today and I will take pics and do a step by step if anyone is interested.
