    This is exactly why I love your channel. So many tasks aren’t difficult once you know the “secrets.” If I lived near you, your shop would get my business, not that I couldn’t do some of the work, but you are set up for it and can knock it out so much faster. Unfortunately, shops like yours aren’t always available. Thanks!

    That was informative!
    I have one of those endoscopes, picked it up about 6 years ago and it looks exactly like the one you have. I paid $18 and it has been well worth that many times over. Gun bores ( cracked barrel would've wasted $350 ) to going over to a friends house to figure out the stud configuration right where his shower/tub started. No way we could've figured it out without taking 18" of small tile and replacing drywall ( Saved him at least $150 if we could find the replacement tile that matched ). Plus many more uses.

    I had a loose bar stud on the Stihl 025 that I restored a few months ago. It only had a few threads left in the hole, so I cleaned the hole out good with break cleaner and my air compressor. I then cleaned off the new bar stud to remove any oil. I then mixed up a little JB Weld and coated the inside of the bolt hole with it. I then screwed the new bolt stud in the hole until some of the JB Weld oozed out. I would remove it after it set. I then let the saw sit in a warm place for 24 hours. I have had no problem with it since. I do not tighten this stud as tight as I do the rear stud but Itighten it enough to hold the bar in place. Gorillas are the reason these bar studs get damaged or loose in their holes. I never tighten bar nuts like some folks do. I tighten them tight but not so tight I can’t remove them.

    A little white paint on the stud to index it will help you keep it lined up. Can also use a piece of fishing line or strong string, tied to stud threads when knocking through, can be used to pull new stud back through the hole.

    I have a Husqvarna 435 and the stud disappeared after I took the nut off. I thought it fell out but could not find it. Wouldn't you know it fell inside the oil tank. What I don't understand is why they made it this way. Now I need to put it back in place. I would suggest putting some Loctite on the stud to make sure it doesn't fall out and also putting a chisel on the stud and giving it several small hits to make it more secure before putting the Loctite on the bolt.

    I have stihl ms 261 non-mtronic.
    It is with captive nuts. When I try to put the cover on the saw and secure it with the nuts It is a bit hard to turn the nuts. Does it mean that the thread of the stud is worn out or the thread on the captive nut is worn out. What can I do if the thread of the captive nut is worn out. It is a bit harder to turn it by hand but is easy to turn it with a spanner. Is it worth replacing either the stud or the cover with the captive nuts if it is not very difficult to turn it?

    This is exactly the reason why scrench handles aren’t very long and don’t give you that much leverage. The nuts don’t need to be super tight to do their job. Using an impact or large ratchet WILL shear them off. Just use a scrench and snug them up. It’s not a lug nut so don’t kill it!

  • @beingthere597
    @beingthere597 2 года назад

    Stihl makes a special tool for tightening the bar studs, but then they make a special tool for everything. Notice that there is no hex nut to grab, just a disk between the two threaded parts. An easy way to seat them snugly is to tighten them finger tight, then run a bar nut about a third of the way on. Run another bar nut on up to the first one. Then hold the first nut with an open end wrench while you tighten the second nut against it. Then when it's tight, remove the open end wrench and tighten the second nut well. The two nuts are now tightened against each other and holding the stud well without messing up the threads. when finished, hold the first nut with the open end wrench and loosen the second one. They will separate and come right off, leaving the stud well seated. If the hole has been wallowed out too much, Stihl makes a stud with oversized case threads.

    For the time and the cost of replacing them both it is minimal. I always replace both and give the broken one and the used one back to the customer along with the bar nuts. Both studs and nuts have been stretched and the old one will fail in the near future. Customers i have had are greatly appreciative of the thought.😃

    I have a question for you,. maybe you can help... I have a Craftsman chainsaw that is about 3 years old, but has only been used several times . like it is only on maybe it's 5- 6 tank of fuel since brand new. it works really good . other than the typical running a bit lean when it is cold like a lot of small small engine tunes these days from the factory,.
    The problem That I have is when it sits it leaks bar oil out like crazy.
    Other than cleaning the air filter and adjust the chain tensioner I have not made any adjustments to it or anything. not even attempted to adjust the fuel mixture yet. Do you know of a reason or a way to remody the bar oil leak. it seems to me that it leaks though the oil jet for the bar.
    I have heard of this complaint from other people also about Craftsman saws. . thank you.
