It's been about four years but my new Dolmars had Windsor chain.
Cut with it some and polish that rust off the chain?
If you are looking for cost effectiveness, it is hard to beat a muffler mod and dropping and checking the squish. I've been pleased. Don't get me...
That's the way the hub on the Dolmar 111i differs on the 1997 and later saws for the part time oil pump drive.
I've done this on a Dolmar. It takes close examination of the differences and how the oiler drive works with each system. Sometimes it is...
That second video was of a "Bust-Em" and not a splitter. It made splinters and chunks and everything in between. You would need a broom and a...
The 55's have a full time oiler and the worm is a interference fit on the crankshaft? It is not driven by the clutch hub or has any relationship...
I miss-read the original post and though it said "55", I was thinking "455"
There's another potential problem. The oil pump drive worm is driven from the face of the clutch drum. A spur and a rim drum have a different...
Though it is not directly cross referenced, the diameter of the clutch itself and of the bearing is the same on the 346, 350, 357, 455. The...
We need to look at the economy of the situation. You've got a 18" .325 on the way . . . You need to use it or sell it? The 455 normally comes...
Regarding Stihl "PS" chain. It looks like the larger "RS" chisel chain but is in the "PICO" pitch. The cutters are larger than some low pro...
I guess the dealers think that "As Goes Stihl - So Goes The World"? The dealers attempt to force green chain on you? I think the majority of the...
Stihl PS is king in 3/8" Pico
Well, this thread has expanded right off the bat to include three families of the Stihl clamshell type saws. The Stihl clamshells are not to be...
All my little Stihls have the definitive twin needle carbs in them. There was one guy around here that changed his MS170 to use a Walbro WT-215...
I have a couple 025's, a MS250, & a 026. They have been good for me as limbing saws. I also have a 066 and a 660 but that's another story.
I have all these saws mentioned so far in this thread. By a good margin, my ported Stihl 026 PRO is my biggest sweetheart of them all. It was...
RS3 is green safety chain. I only buy yellow chains RS is also around $29.50 + tax here But if you buy three chains at once they are a little...
The .404 will stay sharp longer
