    Did the same Job today,on a 250c. Fairly easy Job,not complicated at all,took my time and did it on an hour. Cleaned the carburator too. It helps a lot with pliers,if you dont have small fingers and hands. Thank you for a informative video.

    My ms250 had the same leak. Seeing your video I tore mine down and took my fuel line out but I didn't find a leak either. I cleaned both surfaces and reinstalled my old line. It fixed my leak. I only use 92 octane pure non ethanol regular in all my small engines. saves a lot of maintenance. Thanks for the video. It inspired me to fix my Stihl too.

      I have found that sometimes just taking something apart and reassembling it cure the problem. Like a seal or the like.

    Thanks for the info. My saw started choking out yesterday after 6-7 hours of work. It started today, no problem and I just cut a few pieces of oak to see if it would end up doing the same thing, it didn't. Hopefully I can get through the day today, as it's my last day before surgery and I'll be out if commission for a while. Helped me evaluate that I definitely didn't have time to do these repairs, lol! Cheers!

    I cannot believe how difficult this fuel line replacement was for me on my MS210c . Everything was very easy until I got to seating the line in the hole in the tank top. I think you cheated Bruce when your shoulder got in the way of the video just as you got to that step! After trying to use a screwdriver blade a million times to directly press down on the upper flange (and almost always finally pushing the flange and the screwdriver through the hole and having to start over) I used the flat of the screwdriver blade and leveraged against the case to finally succeed. Thanks for the video but I still don't know how you accomplished what I fiddled and cussed with for hours before it worked.

    Just did my brothers MS 210 what a pain in the ass every time I pulled to seat the grommet the fuel line would pull through but the fourth try I got it your video is very good. looked at the little red barn video on Sthil fuel line replacement and he puts it in the wrong way not only from inside the tank but the fuel line is backwards also did it your way the proper way works

      i pull it out by the fuel tand and insert the new one through the top push it one side at a time through the narrow opening in the saw from the top..align it by looking through the tank opening..i used a quarter drive extension ... use one side at a time into the tank.working my way around...easy as pie...

    In all the other videos, the curved half of the gas line goes outside the tank cause the curve matches the bend around the carb. Maybe it doesn't matter.

    Assuming there is a problem with alcohol damaging the rubber used by stihl: So even though we have no problem making all kinds of fuel lines that work in cars and trucks that have up to 15% alcohol even E85 for some vehicles stihl won't use the slightly different rubber that won't be damaged by ethanol? Is there some requirement to have some kind of special fuel otherwise for chain saw engines? Geez.

    • @BrucesShop
      @BrucesShop  6 лет назад

      Well around here we are all using non ethanol fuel. You can buy it from Stihl if you want. $$$$

    • @orcoastgreenman

      Non ethanol fuel is used by boaters frequently, so the local marina may have it... here they do, for a dollar or so more a gallon than regular where I am.

  • @keithevans1731
    @keithevans1731 6 лет назад

    Looks like the fuel line was put in up side down. I'm sure it will work but they are designed with the crook to be out of the top of the tank so it can attach to the carb without a link.

    Sorry, but the hard part is putting the new line into that tiny space and lining up the retaining grommet. This doesn't show any of that. Its next to impossible in the space provided.

      My issue was the cheapo replacement kit I got off amazon. The new fuel line was terrible, and did not have ample room to "seat" that grommet thing. I reused the old one, and it was not a big deal. I don't think anyone could have got that replacement thing on. Luckily, it works. I really thing it may have been the filthy "tank vent" along the right side of the carb.@@BrucesShop

    does anyone know anything about ethanol damage to your soul if you use off-road gas which has no ethanol in it and gas that is at least 89 octane you can even use racing fuel the ethanol the severe damage to carburetor and plastic I have used off-road fuel in my chainsaws for years the actually love leaded fuel I have a very old still that has never been rebuilt high octane no ethanol is the key actually with the addition of synthetic pure synthetic 2-stroke oil additive I can see the sauce lasting longer and even the older ones

    I have to replace it too: i Plan to leave this fuel line, cutting it on top of the fuel tank; I will just "install" a fuel filter for 1/10-1/8 rc Cars (the smallest I'll find) and a piece of silicon rc gas line (wich generally are better quality than this shitty chainsaw lines); this way i think I'll defenetly solve the problem, and if not, a new piece of rc gas line won't cost me more than 1€, for future repairs.

    • @BrucesShop
      @BrucesShop  8 лет назад

      I find the Stihl gas lines are good but the ethanol fuel dissolves the rubber. Get the Stilh 50-1 fuel. If you can-- use factory parts. I have tried to many times to rig things. The big problem is the shaped grommet seal coming out of the tank.
