- Come along as I repair / Fix a Stihl AV 028 woodboss chainsaw that i had recently picked up for 75$ it was running lean and bogging with throttle. A quick fix of fuel line and filter and its good as new!
STIHL, AV 028 Woodboss, how to, fix, repair, outdoors, chainsaw, hobbyfarm, will it start?
I'm a 17-year-old from crooksville Ohio and I have this exact chainsaw I am very thankful for this information and I appreciate this video
Awesome, I’m glad it was helpful! Glad to have another Ohioan watching the channel. I’m from Belmont county so not to far away. Thanks for watching, stay safe and happy sawing!
Oh yeah! Sweet little chainsaw, awesome find 👍
Thanks! I had it out and it’s been running great, gonna be a nice firewood saw!
Great job buddy I have an 0-28 and a031 I have been putting off changing carburetors on both of them I did not know exactly how to do it but I do now I appreciate this video thank you very much
Thanks Rodney! I’m glad I could help, those are some sweet saws. Best of luck with them and happy sawing. Take care
Good video. I can tell you love your saws. I have 7 different Stihl saws and I love em all. Keep the videos coming my man!
Thanks Rodney! I sure enjoy chainsaws, I don’t think you can have to many either haha. I sure appreciate ya watching, take care!
I love 028's one of my favorite saws. Up until I got bit by the bigger saw bug I ran 028 exclusivley! Far as the Dolmar goes I believe it leaned out because the impulse line came off cylinder!
I thought it might be the metering diaphragm in the carb. Most people don't use premium gas and marine grade stabilizer. I've had an 028 Super for the last 30 years. Love it.
Thanks for watching Jack! Yes that saw sure is a good runner, glad I was able to find and fix it. Take care
Awesome saw
Thanks Jeremy! I was excited to get it up and running, gonna be a good firewood saw! Take care buddy!
Good day Dave good job on your new chainsaw. On your other saw you can practice your owning skills. You might not use it but you can practice maybe for your next chainsaw have a good day
Hey Denis! Thanks, it’s a good running saw. Glad I had gotten the opportunity to buy it! That’s a good idea, I may have to look into that. Nothing wrong with giving it a try :) take care my friend!
Dave, I just picked up the same saw, yesterday for $100. It’s a ugly duckling, but runs like crazy……will be tearing it down today and tomorrow to see what I have. Then a thorough cleaning and a complete tune up. They are an amazing saw for their timeframe……course I used to run good too, back when this saw was built 😂 🇺🇸Rick
Awesome Rick! Yes it sure is a great saw, I need to get mine out and do a tune up. I think it needs rebuilt, hard to start when it’s cold but still runs good when it does start haha. Best of luck with it buddy, take care!
@@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm Thanks Dave !! I need to find a decent air filter cover for it, it has a chunk of plastic out of it. But so far, that’s it. And of course a tune up kit 👍
Not bad for 47cc & $75.00. Looks like you got a good deal. As far as the dolmar goes, the piston damage could have been caused by several things. The saw could have over heated, a dull chain and working hard will over heat it causing the piston to expand beyond its normal size. It could also be a cold seizure. If you put a cold saw to work without a warmup the piston expands faster than the cylinder causing scuffing. And the last thing is lack of oil/ poor oil... If it were a lean failure there is usually some sign on the piston edge at the exhaust port where the hot gasses burn the carbon off the piston and may even slightly melt he edge of the piston. Good luck.
Hey Thanks Larry! Yes with the Dolmar I would almost say it over heated, I was in a bar deep cherry making cuts on a really hot day. Probably just worked it a bit to much! I sure appreciate the feedback, lessoned learned for me haha. These rebuilds are a lot more than the 50-60cc saws 🤠 take care!
@@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm Keep the good content coming, I enjoy this stuff.
51.5 cc saw
Good morning Dave, you have your hands full already so I’ll be quiet as to who I agree with 🤫🤗😉. Hope you can get the saw straightened out and running right again. I have been in the same boat too, sometimes it’s the rose, sometimes it’s the fertilizer 😩. You can get in the last words though, they are “YES DEAR you’re right”. 👍👍 Fred.
Haha your right there 😆. The saw sure seems to run great, I’ll continue to tune it in and clean it up but so far so good! Thanks for coming along and commenting, I sure enjoy hearing from ya! Take care my friend!
Them 028s were a good little limb saw that you could still load your truck with. Lol.
Thanks Tim, sure seems to be a good runner :) thanks for watching!
Limb saw? Mine has a 20” bar. Wouldn’t be using it to limb up a tree. I’ve had mine for 33 years, and it still looks new, as I am meticulous about taking care of it.
Yeah I’d say limb over felling for sure, good firewood saw anyways.
Think crank seals on the second one. Likely that hose leaned it out.
Yeah I hadn’t ran but a few tanks of gas through it, hopefully the new build and fuel lines remedy it!
Wazap man, from which Stihl saw is that new fuel line? I am working on my 028 AV and I can’t find a replacement for the old one in my country. Thanks!
I believe I had gotten that from an 029 maintenance kit and trimmed some off. Seems to work well! Thanks for watching!
Robber intake boot leak and check crank seals.Do a bleed down test,.all telling
Thanks for the comment! Thankfully it was just a collapsing fuel line, easy fix!
Close ups would belp
What kind of questionds you got, i would be happy to try and help
looks like my saw,,haha,,,so what was the fix just the fuel line ? cause mine runs for about thirty seconds then starts to bog
Hey Bill, yup that was it. I cleaned the carb and put me fuel lines on it! Thanks for watching
I just bought one for $20 no bar and chain though, what kind does it use? Thanks
Mine has a 20” bar. They also suggest a 16” bar for smaller stuff.
Any chance you know what the difference cc’s are for the Stihl 028 AV, 028 AV Wood Boss, 028 AV Super, and the 028 AV Super Wood Boss?
Howdy! I believe the 028 is ~43 and the av super is ~47 hope that helps :) thanks for watching, take care!
@@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm Thank you! Just a couple more cc’s could make all the difference haha
No doubt! It’s a good running saw, I think I lean more towards my 290 but it has the 390 big bore kit on it which gave it a bit more grunt!
028 is 43cc, 028 woodboss is 47cc and the super is 51cc
What Dolmar is that? Thank ya!
Howdy! That’s a 7300 with a big bore on it. Sure is cutting nice now! I appreciate ya watching, take care!
Took my 028 av woodboss in for servicing, I was told needs new piston & cylinder & there are no parts available for it, just buy a new saw.
I would look online for a new cylinder and piston kit, you should be able to buy i big bore kit and get some more power! Best of luck,
@@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm Thnx for the info :)
@@hunglikefish There are Nikasil plated cylinders, and piston, rings, etc on line for these saws.
I can’t figure out what is wrong with my 028 for the life of me. New OEM carb, pickup line, pulse line, fuel filter, new plug and new air filter. Runs great for roughly 10 minutes or maybe 1/3rd of a tank and then it won’t go past 1/2 throttle. Sits there and four strokes something fierce with a little bit of smoke. Never replaced the vent line though. 🤔
That sounds odd, when it’s acting like that does it react to adjusting the high and low speed needles?
@@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm, once it’s starts acting up, I can’t get it to clear up until it cools down. Piston rings maybe?
@@The_pipeliner make sure the boot between the carb and cylinder haven’t deteriorated from ethanol gas. Mine wouldn’t even start it was so bad.
That saw has a very dull chain. My exact saw would cut thru that demo wood like butter, just holding the saw win no downward pressure
Oh I’m sure, your saw is probably the sharpest fastest saw in The west! As meticulous as you are..
Looking for 028 super parts saw
Thanks for watching, I’d recommend Facebook marketplace! I usually find good deals on there. Thanks for watching!
