    Bad bearing on Stihl 461 Chainsaw?

    Okay- do you have any comeback through the auction site? We do here if goods defective or not as advertised. If you cannot return to sender and get your money back- then we can walk you through all the repairs- heck if you want I will pull a Stihl apart and do each step with you- only I dont...

    Bad bearing on Stihl 461 Chainsaw?

    Do you still have the coil fitted in the video? If not then- Yeah na- thats not normal. I hope you did not pay too much for it on the original auction? Good saws and fully worth repairing for your own use, but if you paid high initially and it is going to cost plenty to repair- not really a...

    Stihl 076AV not oiling

    Did the gear come with seal fitted? I usually grease the interior of the seal and oil the shaft before dropping them on.

    Stihl 076AV not oiling

    It is a genuine Stihl part, or aftermarket? I believe it will work- have seen ones like your original and ones like your replacement- albeit on 051's which use the same pump and same parts. Put it this way- with the original parts you had in the saw- it did not pump oil- new parts differ...

    Build enough of them and you begin to recognise model from the part in hand.

    The wide starter was for the 066- gets tricky when all the 1122 stuff interchanges- but then it doesn't! Pretty sure the starter on my one is off a much newer MS640.

    McCulloch sp125 Teardown Rebuild

    No ID tag any more- but it was likely a saw that had the non adjustable carb on it- they did that for a while because guys were getting them, screwing them up for max rpm, eliminating the governor and burning the saws up- so taking away to option of fiddling and the problem was somewhat solved...

    Mines a fair old mash up of parts- pretty true to 064 in the bottom end, but the tank is a semi see through one. Might have to dig deeper into the parts bin, the chain brake linkages are a bit worn and it flicks on too readily.

    McCulloch sp125 Teardown Rebuild

    Nice old muscle saw- mine is pretty much bog standard. I guess you have to figure out how to connect the fuel line and impulse onto the carb modification- then its a matter of the usual perishable items like the intake manifold rubber, seals and things like that. Chip guards on the starter can...

    Yesterdays playtime.

    Took a couple of saws out for a run yesterday- had to process some logs into lengths that could be tractor shifted, some Pine (softwood) and some Macrocarpa (semi hardwood), varying size from around 15- 28" logs. Took an old faithful in the form of a 670 Champ Jonsered and freshly built 064...

    Stihl 076AV not oiling

    Are Stihl saws not held together with 5mm bolts?

    Take the cir clip out first- never looked at your photo before last answer.

    Stihl 076AV not oiling

    Yes, 5mm bolt- thread into the hole and pull on that. May need to pry on it a little, but use common sense- you tear that thread out and you are in for a fun day.

    Stihl 076AV not oiling

    Can you be more specific? Like what is happening and what isnt? Does it still manually oil, but not auto oil? I will have paper service manuals here somewhere- but if you can narrow down specific areas it might be a bit easier to share the information they hold.

    McCulloch 435 only runs when primed

    The spark arrestor screen in the muffler is not totally plugged with carbon?

    McCulloch 435 only runs when primed

    This cleaned and rebuilt the carb bit- are you sure the components all went back in the same position, same orientation. Is the pump side of the carb back together correctly, carb body, gasket, diaphragm and then top cover? Are the screens on the metering side sitting correctly in relation to...
