Not if you look at the pics of the 2 crankcases!!
No!So I guess the question that still needs to be answered is can you place an aftermarket Ms 261 on ms271 crank case
I just part out new Stihl saws, you can see the factory sealant on the items.Thanks for your information! How much or what source do you have for a cheaper "block" than facory OEM sites?
My buddy bought a brand new Stihl MS271 and someone put regular gas in it. He ruined the piston and cylinder. The local repair shop said "not worth fixing", but if I fix it myself, I'm pretty sure I can have it free. It probably has three hours on it.
I can find the piston kit with no problems, but after 30 minutes of searching for a cylinder kit, I can only find one on eBay for $200. I'm hoping you folks who shop this stuff more often can find me another source and maybe even a better price. On one site, it seemed they had EVERY cylinder, except the MS271.
Also, are there any other parts I'll need to check to make sure they don't need replacement as well.
I'm not much of a wrench turner, but willing to try. Thanks for any advice.
