Another great video. I run my own saw shop and I still enjoy watching common sense approaches to service and repair from others on the chance I pick up some helpful tip or trick. Never mind the ignorant trolls, keep trying to help educate!
That's one well broken" in" saw, I'd hate to see the piston. I've always believed good daily upkeep of my equipment prevents them from ever getting to this stage.
"Extra quarter turnitus"😂 may just have to borrow that saying! Sounds like me when I was a teen. Operator reminds me of my buddy, he's good about fixing what he breaks but I swear he could break an anvil with a marshmallow!
The buffer plug in the right front is missing. You have to instal it before you install the chain catcher. I always seem to forget it and have to take things apart to install it. The rimless sprocket is supposed to use the thick steel sprocket washer. The aluminum one goes on spur sprockets, only.
Will you give us a list of tools you use & were to get them, & a good site to buy OEM parts for stihl chainsaws, I have a couple of MS-311's, tks-You sre very good @ what you do, & WE thank you !!!!
That's one thing I didn't change and feul filter. Was afraid spring would break and didn't have another .paws were OK but was makeung weird noise so cleaned it and went away was no play like that one had on video
Hi, the video was very interesting, can you tell me where to buy the rectifier for the bar of the chainsaw I think I see the name of Eferd. Greetings from Spain
I always coat the gears on he chain. Adjuster with white lithium grease before I assembled them. I use it liberally. They will get a little bar oil during normal operation but the grease makes sure they turn easily. I hate an adjuster that gets tight as I adjust it. It also protects against rust and corrosion should thee parts get wet,as they often do.
Richard, Good details. Any chance you could show how to put the Genie back in the bottle? AKA re-coiling an oops there goes the spring boooooinnnngggg. I know Stihl uses carriers but sometimes ya gotta do the rewind wind. Gary
I suppose husqvarna mostly uses the is it 4 mm allen head but the there is the 266xp. That has metric m5 thread on the intake side, the cylinder bolts are imperial thread with imperial allen head, and the damn exhaust side that is imperial thread into the cylinder but the muffler side takes a metric nut. What on earth was husqvarna thinking?
It sounds good in concept, but the factory doesn't use any. Here's my theory. Any grease will attract and trap dirt and particulate. That may wear it out sooner. Just my .02
Interesting to get the differing recommendations on this subject. Other videos out the by Saloon guy, Donyboy and others have them liberally lubricating the pull starter assemblies-pulleys on a variety of engines. As you just discovered some new Chi-Com knock off replacement recoil assemblies come slathered with grease. I just tore down an old 066 red light and it was packed with so much oily-greasy crap dating back from the 90’s it was lubricating itself throughout the entire case…lol.
I cant imagine those bar studs cost much, is it really worth trying to repair the threads why not just replace them when they are that bad? Seems like a no brainer.
@@richardflagg3084 what ever you need .would be greatly appreciated. Have a brandnew 500i never seen gas yet obviously for work.its all I do.just cleared 4 acres of thorny brush and big cedars ,walnuts by a lake .for client
Also I have a old classic you might be interested in.has axstripped bolt on bottom to the cylinder. And needs cleaned and fuel line .was going to work on it it runs but I'm to buisy to .barley get my jobs done.
Poor saw 😞I wanna see the intake side of the piston I bet she’s a Beauty 😂 Keep up the good content buddy
I'll do a follow up in the morning. Thanks Gordy
Great videos, great information, and know how.
Another top notch vid Mr. Richard! Always interesting and informative. Thank you.
I like informative diy videos. Thank you

Guys are hard on stuff when they don't pay the bill!
So true!
Woe that filter .wow

We all know one of those guys!
I used to over tighten things as well. Then I turned 13.
Lol. When I was a teen, my family was constantly reminding me "just snug" and "finger tight". First time using a torque wrench was an eye opener😳
@@aaronpowell4885 Tighten it til it slips and back it off a quarter turn..........🤣🤣
On a thumper I put the Elastostart pull rope and handle on them. This saves my shoulder and wrist
Waiting patiently for the next oil video. 🙃
Great video!
Thanks, Great video!

Shiiiiiit, I can show you a few prebuilds that would make that 461 look like a GEM.

Tighten till it gets loose then back off a quarter turn.
Parts expensive but saws are very expensive
Great video, all good info, thank you. Such a fabulous make and model, who in their right mind would thrash a chainsaw into that state?
Run it til it won't comes to mind.
Great video ! Would it harm anything to put a dab of grease on that recoil pulley mount post to help extend the life of the pulley ?

@@shannonwhitaker9630 Hah! Gotta love old dirty saws. I've got 2 Red lights. Classics.

The dealer was out of stock, and yes they are only $4-5 IIRC. I took one off a parts saw to get this one back in service.
why dont you clean the saw when you have it apart
They will tell you that real men don’t loosen the bar nuts to tension the chain.🤪
My wife brother has "1moreturnitus" on everything. Its no wonder all his crap is falling apart, stripped or broken.
Wish you were available for work..your not to far away
Maybe we can work something out.
