    Excellent video. And thank you for sharing that the HO pump piston is the part from the 461. I just replaced the pump piston on my 441 but now realize I was sent the correct control bolt but the pump piston was exactly the same as my old one even though it came in a paper packet with the right part number on it. Got ripped off. But at least now I know what to look for and what to order. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Well done.

    My 462 usually has bar oil left too after the gas runs out. Not trying too save money on bar oil 😂, I love it! Take Care Rodd!

      Should have a little left. I would have 1/4 tank left. That’s a bit much. Appreciate ya watching Don!👍🏻

      My 400 has about 1/2 tank of oil left with the factory oiler turned all the way up. Mostly cut dead hardwood and it can't even oil a 20 :(

    Super informative video Rod !! I hadn’t seen anyone do this procedure before, most just swap out the oiler from a 461 - complete. I like the way you did it 👍 Great camera work too ⛓🪚👍👏🇺🇸 Rick

    Excellent video. Very informative. I've never been that far into a saw. I agree more oil on the bar and chain is better, the oil doesn't do any good in the jug. 👍🏻

    Hey Rod , very nice video . A lot of great info . I also usually put a new e clip in my stuff because I launch them into never never land when I am removing them . I like my oil to run out at the same time as my fuel . Have a good one my friend !!! 👍🏻🇺🇸

    Nice one! My lil ms 250 is a different much simpler design. I learned a lot taking it apart many times trying to fix my mistakes knock off parts and silly mistakes. Learned a lot and in the end it was fun learning. Oem in my case was much better. Satisfying fix. Sounds like a great upgrade! Have a great day!

    FWIW, IMO the stock MS400 didn't oil a 25" bar very well. I replaced the stock oil pump with a holzforma import. That cheap arse pump works like the original should have!! Regardless, I'll order the Stihl HO parts and rebuild the original. It's a shame Stihl doesn't put the HO pump on the mighty MS400.

    Hey, thanks a lot. Can you measure length and diameters of the pump shaft? Checking whether the shaft would fit my 261 as well
