      Not only an excellent teacher, she has the right tools to do the work. I like the seal puller. I see people drilling the seals and using slide hammers. Neanderthals, I tell ya. Here we have civilization at its finest.

      Erica, do you like the Stihl pressure/Vacuum tester? I haven't had great luck with the Mitivac as far as durability, last a year or so and need repairs. Also, could you post the part number for the press/vacuum kit you're using?
      Great job, saw sounded great! Keep up the good work and video's, much appreciated! 🇨🇦❤

    Erica, Andreas Stihl opened his first factory in Bad Cannstatt (a suburb of Stuttgart) in 1926. He moved the works to Waiblingen in 1944 after we destroyed his shops in a bombing raid. All saws leaving the new works were labeled 'Made in West Germany", Waiblingen being in West Germany. Of course, once the Berlin Wall came down in 1989 saws were simply "Made in Germany".
    In 1974 Stihl opened its North American manufacturing facility in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Most saws you work on today will have been made in that Virginia factory. In 2008 Stihl opened a factory in Qingdao, China. I don't know what to make of that!
    I have a 1980s Stihl 028AV that's "Made in West Germany". A wonderful old saw, but the spark is very poor in spite of a new set of points and condenser. I'm thinking about upgrading to a used Wood Boss flywheel so I can go with electronic ignition.

    I have a Stihl 028 AV Super that I got under similar circumstances. As a very impressionable teen, I once watched this saw being put through its paces and it got me hooked on chainsaws. After the gentleman died, his wife gave it to me because she knew I would get it running again and look after it. I got it running again for purely sentimental reasons, but it's proven to be a such a great saw, seemingly running better than my brand-new MS 271. I have always screwed up my face the "they don't make em like the used to" thing, but this is so true for the 028. That's for the video!

    • @paulmaxwell8851
      @paulmaxwell8851 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yup, my two main saws are a 1973 Homelite XL-12 and a 1981 Stihl 028AV. Both of them are rugged, reliable saws.

    Wikipedia: Stihl is a German company, founded by the mechanical engineer Andreas Stihl in 1926, and headquartered in Baden-Württemberg, near Stuttgart, Germany. All of their early saws, including the first Stihl chainsaws, were manufactured there.

    That was great!!! you've done the glass jar for fuel,and in this case it really showed how bad it was.Then you topped it off with the close up of the pressure /vacuum test and that was even BETTER!!!I've never seen that done,let along know it was important.Now it makes sense to me.Thank you for very valuable lessons.Your right up at the top.

      I'm not sure what to think. We live in a farming/ranching area with many German, Austrian and Swiss immigrants. I've asked about this, and some insist Stihl is pronounced "shtill". Some insist it's "still" and others say it's "steel". No-one can agree. I say "shtill", and that seems as good as anything!

  • @tecnaman9097
    @tecnaman9097 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You can get caught occasionally if you tap on a seal with a garter spring. Tapping the seal with a hammer even when using an appropiate driver can sometimes dislodge the garter spring rendering the seal useless. That's probably why STIHL say to use an arbor press. How do I know 🥹🥹. Thanks for taking the time and effort to make these vids.

    Congratulations!! It runs really well now! Just one advice. When you cut, let the saw lean itself at wood, don't fight it. Saw will do it's job without too much strain on your body or the engine.
    Love your videos so much!! Cheers from Croatia!!

  • @SpecialistOne
    @SpecialistOne 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    In the early 1980's and before that, there was West Germany, and East Germany. The German products that I bought during that time frame, were all labeled as Made in West Germany. Then about the mid-1980s, I remember the US President (Regan at the time) was saying to the German governments to take down that wall that separates the west and the east. After that, the two unified, and now there is only one Germany. I think the West was a democracy, and the East was not. So, it is so nice to have them all as one nation. This is interesting that you can relatively time things on what it says on the label as where it's made.

    This is how my 260 runs. Will only idle for some 10 seconds of so then dies or it dies when i just touch the trigger, all after warming up. Idle fine when cold. When at throttle it runs great. Took to shop but they just put a new plug in and said it ran for a half hour. Unfortunately that plug fouled or failed first time i took it out to cut a load of wood. Even after i pulled it and made sure it was clean, started back up and it died after i started it and wouldn't restart. Went back to town and got a new plug and it ran fine.

And that's the time the neighbors bring there stuff over. Every thing is either Stihl or Husqvarna. A bunch of 020, 030, 040series and a couple of 056s and a bunch 40, 50 series Huskies. My useables are 009 018, 064, 880, 017, 455 rancher, 281 husky and 395 husky. I like chainsaws lol

    The two Stihl saws I owned prior the the late 1970s were made in West Germany. If I remember correctly all Stihls were made in Europe prior to the mid 1970s. From the mid 1970s into early 1980s American made saws began showing up. I've owned 4 Stihls, one second hand and three new, over the past 50 years. I still own 2, one 30+ years old and one about 3 years old. The newest is the homeowner type, junk IMO.

    I bought one of these as "not running" also stamped Made in West Germany found out the carb was shot was just dumping fuel with the jets closes all the way and it would run fast one direction and die out the other. Got a carb from china (couldn't find an original anywhere) and new crank seals mine was shot on the flywheel side. Runs like a bad out of hell now just need a new recoil. It has a LOT of compression still has crosshatch which makes it a pain to pull and can carry it around by the pull cord.

    I have both a West Germany 024AV (bought in 1984) and 028 from my wife's late uncle. Great saws. Keep them well maintained but I did need to replace the carbs and fuel filters a few years ago (it "may" have been) and both run great. Just need one a little biger for the larger trees on my 30 acres of georgeous North Carolina mountain.

    Ok I learned something new today, I really liked that oil trick on the seal test.

    Another great repair - thanks for sharing to logic process to determine the problem. Was wondering if the tool that you used to remove the fuel line off the carb nipple would also work to remove the fuel line from the tank rather than using the needle nose pliers? I imagine the needle nose pliers give you more leverage to pull the grommet portion of the line out of where it seals in the tank but I would think they could damage the fuel hose if someone was trying to save a fuel line if it was still in good shape. Really enjoy watching your videos.

    Teamwork makes the dream work. As always great work. The saw had little use looked in excellent condition

    Thanks so much for the great video. I have one of these a friend gave me that had been severely neglected. I learned a lot from your video and wish it would have been available a year or so ago. I encountered some of the same issues bringing it back into serviceable condition. It's now one of my favorite power saws.

    The older Stihl saws used 40:1 fuel mix. I'm guessing this is one of those. Is this the mix you used or is 50:1 with the newer oils okay to run these. Just asking as i have my father in-laws old 024AVS running 40:1. Great videos by the way.

    Can you give the part number for the tool you used in place of the carburetor? Thank you

    Changing crank seals is so much fun. I wish my aftermarket pulling tool would work a bit better though. Don‘t you use a sealing material like Dirko HT?

    031,032,044's all bought in the early/late 70's and all were made in W. Germany. And they Stihl start on the 5th pull. lol.
