    Good morning Stan!! Yep, I try to put fuel stabilizer in any gas engine left over the winter. Makes a big difference come spring.

      The old UFA purple gas doesn’t quite have the necessary shelf life to make it through the winter.

    I have just got my Dad’s FS66. I have taken it to a Stihl dealer, who are replacing the Carb. Hopefully it will run for many more years. It would have been a shame to just scrap it.
    I learned alot from your video.

    Great work Stan! I would have like to have seen the part where you worked on the spark arrestor.

    Good morning. Stan's Small Engine Repairs😁 you may not be a mechanic but you sound like you know what you're talking about.

      I know how to spray brakleen in a carburetor. It’s all fingers crossed after that.

    Great fuel and correct on the checking g of spark arrestor. Old gas is a killer.
    Stan you couldn't live on mechanic wages. Keep doing what your doing. Some day You Tube will pay better than being a mechanic

      Judging by how greasy that machine was, it looks like the in-laws were trying to run it on used deep fryer oil. It runs amazing now.

      My hands got dirty just looking at it. 30 years of never seeing an aerosol can and a rag.

    сьогодні отримали таку косу на ремонт. Виготовлено в Японіі. Хто робив для компаніі STIHL цей інструмент в 1987 році? Поршень 31 мм., схоже на SHINDAIWA . Потрібно знайти поршневу групу.

      Stihl doesn’t disclose who manufactures their engine components. Most believe that the majority of parts are manufactured in China, and then everything gets assembled in one of Stihl’s assembly facilities.

    That is NOT a brush cutter, that is a trimmer,. Brush cutters have a saw blade or metal blade equivalent.

      Feel free to search the Stihl FS66 brush cutter online. You’ll find that it is indeed a brush cutter. It has the capability to switch between cutting heads.

    I bought a FS66 in 1985 and the carb is just now giving me problems.
