- Stihl FS450 Brushcutter Repairs - Throttle cable and kill switch - 2021 #65
in this video I'm in the shed repairing the FS450.
The Throttle Cable has stretched, I "fix" that by pulling the throttle cable outer sheath outside of the trigger handle, that causes the kill switch to loose its electrical circuit connectivity so I have to come up with a repair for that, permanently temporary repair 😀

Thank you very much man. I'm having trouble with mine. The trigger doesn't move. I'm gonna try what you did with the cable inside the throttle body.
fingers crossed I hope it works for you. Good luck.
Great fix, sometimes working in those handles can be a pain in the butt.
Thanks Joey. Agree they are overly complex. My temporary fix is a year old and still working 👍. Thanks for watching
Great job with the fix Chris. Like new.
Temporary fix to last a lifetime 😁
Hello, I am French, I really liked your video, I understood thanks to you that it was the iron handlebars which allow you to ground and turn off the machine. maybe you can help me, the throttle cable of my fs 400 makes my machine accelerate by itself, I have the impression that it is too short and very tight is this normal, in your opinion where can this come from? thank you for your comeback
Hi, thanks for watching. I’d say there can be be 2 problems. The throttle cable has 2 ends so I’d guess one end is not seated properly and this is reacting like the throttle trigger has been pulled. This can be caused when the machine is off and the cable gets accidentally pulled. I’d suspect the end near the engine, but check both ends. On my machine the cable connects behind the airfilter box. Once that’s removed you can see how it’s connected and then check it. There is also cable tension adjustment there too. Hope that helps.
Great little fix - I think I'm faced with the same issue at the moment with an FS 550. Curious to know if the fix is still holding up? Cheers!
Hi, thanks for watching. Yep, it’s still holding up, “temporary fixes”tend to last with me until they break again and then they get a more permanent fix 😁😁
@@TheRuralProject thanks for the response!
Hold gase till fuel or engine is over 😂
ha, that would have been the alternative if i couldn't get it fixed
Hi is that the old or new model Stihl FS 450
Hi, the very old FS 450. I didn’t know they did a newer version.
@@TheRuralProject i have the new model one and the price for the carburetor is 475 for it in my country
@@TheRuralProject yes they have the new model available
@@nicolashosein what country is that ?
@@TheRuralProject you don't happen to have a spare HT lead for the ignition coil to the spark plug boot
I m looking for the HT LEAD from an SF450 for mine i can't get the replacement after market coil to turn off from the handle
Doesn’t EBay have the parts ?
@@TheRuralProject I can't find the genuine sthill Ht lead one shop told me I would never find the same one its so old lol
I agree, I think you’ll find it hard to find a genuine part, but don’t be afraid to try the after market stuff, it’s usually ok and a fraction of the price.
