Gotta add my compliments and appreciation. I thought all I had to do was change the broken rotted primer bulb button but WRONG! Now I know why they sell the fuel lines and filters as a kit! Then I was panicked I’d have to pull the entire 🤬 body apart. Your video has saved my sanity. Thank you!!!
That is the way that a video should be made. Good, in focus camera work and notes in color to show the fine points. I wish that I had seen this last year before I took my saw apart.
Thanks. Yes, I did this video after spending a great of time searching and watching videos to try to figure what how to do this. I was frustrated with lots poor instructions and bad camera work. I figure I can do better :-)
Thanks for the detailed instructions. The explanation of the three lines was very helpful. My lines also disintegrated after 20 years even with infrequent use. The ethanol in our gasoline probably contributed to that too. I just picked up 36 inches of line from HomeDepot and a filter from another store and will tackle the install tomorrow. Your saw looks quite clean. I have decided to do some additional dismantling for cleaning up.
Awesome DIY video!!! To help route the fuel lines I loosened the upper bolt on the body, just above the pull start handle. This provided some wiggle room to ease the fuel lines through to the tank. Hope that’ll help someone else!
Helped me so much. Thanks for your efforts! All of my lines were deteriorated and the filter was loose in the tank with a short piece of line. On my way to TruValue!
Thank you very much ,I know nothing about chainsaws and I had all three gas lines and filter changed in forty five minutes,could not have done it without this excellent video👍👍👍👍👍
I was repairing my chainsaw for an old tree in my yard and after taking out the carb, which hole does the throttle cable go back into? It seems that there are multiple holes and the only one that works won't open the 'flap' fully in the carb.
Thanks for the show ~~ I am still working onthe 4900 trying to figure how to get tothe connect line below thw other top ones. Trying to see how to get to where I can hook on to that nipple down behind the tank. Does it all have to come Out? Having trouble with the tank is in the way.
There are 2 holes going into the gas tank. Is the top or bottom hole the one for the fuel filter? I want to keep it original how it came from the factory.
Ah, thank you. Wondered if that was so... I have a Mac3200 (great little saw!) presently dead of a crispy primer bulb, but if I'm in there, might as well replace all of this stuff. Just bought a new Stihl but I like the Mac better!
Excellent video as my lines basically disintegrated and had no reference where they needed to go. Not sure how long saw sat idle, but I'm guessing 15 years or more. Saw did however start right up once it had fuel but would not run due to line problems.
It doesn't matter - this is a return line for the gas to go back to the gas tank. So as long as it is reasonably inside the gas tank, you will be fine.
@@diyvideo-diy That line is it big one or small? Same is the gas pick up large or small? Having trouble with the lower motor #63 connection ~~ how to get to it and if its large or small, one? Good video
I didn't repair it yet, but as soon as I tried to extract the filter, the end of the hose turned to dust on me - lol. I will get hosing and a new filter and try this. Trying to clean up a tree that fell in the yard after a storm , but the saw would start but not run.
I bought plastic fuel line from the hardware store and used the chainsaw, round file to open up the holes to the tank. Once it sucked up fuel, it worked great. Thanks
Omg ... that was so well said! Simple, easy, clear, and nice drawings of lines. Stopped me from just tearing the whole thing apart!

Short, clear and informative. Everything I need an instructional video to be. Thank you!
You're welcome!
This was great. My lines were so bad that I couldn't tell which way they went. Your video answered all the questions. Thanks!

It did help someone. Thanks
EXCELLENT YT video. Much better and clearer than some full motion videos where you can’t see what’s being done. Thanks!!
Love the accuracy and detail of this video. Dude, your voice and delivery is GOLD!
Thanks. You are welcome.
Thanks so much for this video! It solved my problem on my 1998 chainsaw and it's working like new again after all these years
You are welcome!
Great video....At first I thought it was Arnold with a cold, but Andre the giant is spot on! If he could say, NO BABYOIL... That would be great!
I ave only been dryving an hour !
Yeah, I heard Aanold here as well.
I used this video to change the fuel lines in my 1994 McCulloch. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome!
Helped me so much. Thanks for your efforts!
All of my lines were deteriorated and the filter was loose in the tank with a short piece of line. On my way to TruValue!
yo André the giant, where can I get some fuel line the right size and material?
Exactly what I thought.
Haaahdweah stoh

I like that he is not starting by asking us " how are we doing youtubers!" Good video !

Don't know. Ask the folks from McCulloch. Just pick ur favorite hole, it really doesn't matter.
And once you get it running again you can GET TO THE CHOPPA!
Thanks for making video. your way to replace lines much easier than mine! Should have looked on u tube first..
Excellent video. Great lighting, complete description. Best i've seen. Also, applies to the Mac 3200 chain saw. thanks.

Did fuel lines on mine the old lines were not there when I got it took a minute to figure out the primer bubble
Thank you very much. Ryobi branded version of the same chainsaw. Bought in South Africa. Now in Ireland. Parts are harder to get here than in Joburg.
You are welcome!!

Amazing information.!!! So helpfull. You are a teacher. P.S. you sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger. No kidding.. Wow !!!
Help!!! Who can tell me what fuel line goes into the the upper hole that goes into the fuel tank?
I'm asking about MS1635...thank you
how far in should i push #2 line into the gas tank? thank you.
It doesn't matter - this is a return line for the gas to go back to the gas tank.
So as long as it is reasonably inside the gas tank, you will be fine.

That's expected. When I repaired mine, the hoses were pretty much disintegrated. The filter broke off and was
rattling in the fuel tank.
I bought plastic fuel line from the hardware store and used the chainsaw, round file to open up the holes to the tank. Once it sucked up fuel, it worked great. Thanks
Thanks, very helpful.
Awesome thank you Arnold
I didn't know Arnold Schwarzenegger liked to work on chainsaws !! that's cool !
awsome and strait forward thx a lot
Well done! Easy to follow. Thank you for your effort.
Good video "I'll be back"
Humorous , but broken down well for people to follow. Now you need to do Clint Eastwood changing a axe handle. Nothing like a good piece of hickory.
what size are gas line
If you watch the video completely, you will get your answer. I listed the size of
the gas line at the end.
look at 4:12
Thanks so much is so good
will you autograph a stihl Ms 880 for me ? I think it's cool Arnold Schwarzenegger likes to work on chainsaws ! that's awesome !!
I'll be back!
Thanks
I'll be back!!!!!!!
Sounds like it's narrated by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Andre the Giant's love child.
Conan the tree man
Just buy a new saw
I didn't know Arnold Schwarzenegger liked working on chainsaws ,, that's cool !!
I thought he just uprooted each tree and snapped off pieces for his campfire
