The saw runs now and i will put it back in service and see what happens. I am losing faith in Stihl, the Dolmar I replaced this stihl with is running fine, also the Echo that was purchased to replace the Stihl MS461 that blew the top end is giving no trouble and performing well.

Did you switch to the Stihl Ulta synthetic? If so, I would be interested in the outcome after you run them for awhile. Just trying to add to my knowledge base!.Anyway I now mix the fuel myself. The saws do have good reputations. I may be back with Stihl but for the $$$ i can get almost the same CC saw for a little less and if it will last as long why not save the $$. We will see how these other brands last when they get 6 or 8 months of age on them.
Its all in the rating ,that oil is cleaner burning.Did you switch to the Stihl Ulta synthetic? If so, I would be interested in the outcome after you run them for awhile. Just trying to add to my knowledge base!

And its not running too lean make sure its not over reving.The exact kind of oil hardly matters much, as as long as it it a quality full synthetic one made for air cooled two cycle engines.
Well Stihl Ultra is sort of a generic oil in the Stihl does not make it. Ultra, I don't know about the other Stihl oils, is blanded by Omni. Stihl probably worked with Omni to develop Ultra but that does not mean it is exclusive to Stihl. I hear good things about WP synthetic, I forget who makes it. I have had great results using Opti 2 and Blendzall as well as Ultra but really have no way to determine if I have had the "best" results.But to bring things back into perspective. Stihl HP Ultra oil is only rated FB!( http://www.stihl.de/STIHL-Produkte/Zubehör-und-Betriebsstoffe/Kraft-und-Schmierstoffe/Kraftstoffe-Motorenöle-und-Kettenhaftöle/21356-1740/Zweitaktmotorenöl-HP-Ultra.aspx ) !!! Many generic brand oils out there are full synthetic for air cooled engines and have the highest rating there is! (API TC, JASO FC/FD, ISO L-EGD)
So what do I do? I buy generic brand oil at 1/3 the price of the Stihl brand and have better specifications than the major player!
