I bought this saw off Craigslist Saturday for 75 bux. The guy said it sat for 3 years (oil/gas drained) on a shelf. He said if it does not work he would give me back the money no problem. I couldn't wait to get home to strip it and clean and inspect it. I put fresh gas mix and bar oil and it fired after 5-6 pulls on choke but was idling very high. I adusted the idle screw to get it under control and it ran absolutely flawless accept for the oiler. I found a thread here that explained how to tear it apart and clean so I did and no it works very well, maybe a bit too well, not concerned about it though. I have found many pix but this one is different than most. The choke switch/lever goes east west not north south like most I have seen. I say this because I would like to know the age.
It is super clean almost like new but I don't have a operators manual for it can't find it on the Stihl site. I would not mind having a service manual also.
Is it the same as the 011?
How is the saw quality wise?
And is it ok to run Stihl synthetic?
Is it a good saw to use or look at?
