    Some of the Stihl fuel lines are short like that. You have to pull on them to get the filter out. Good old Stihl, my 024 is the same way

    Brad,
    Iron Horse is a Stihl dealer now. I’ve had good luck with them; friendly staff and they have a good supply of inventory on hand. They’re a great dealer overall; I’ve done a rental from them and some small repairs.

    LOL , just thinking back when Iron Horse first opened and was kind of limited , it was referred to as "Plastic Pony"
    Then we have Giant Oak ; more commonly known as "Giant Joke " mostly for their lack of organization and a business that looks like it sells tornados.
    and don't forget G&H ; that is short for " Get Hosed"

    Hey, look at the bright side; at least we have dealers in our area.

    I did stop there last year or the year before. I think buzz-saw bought a saw there. I'm not in that area often so G&H North Haven or CT Power and sport are the two I go to.
