LOCAL CLASSIFIEDS FIND - Two Stihl Chainsaws For Parts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Here are two chainsaws I purchased recently from a local classifieds ad. One is a Stihl 026 and the other a Stihl 024AV. These will come in handy for extra parts!
Always good to have some spare parts, Dony...
Cheers from Down Under
Knowing what you are buying is the key to getting a good deal. Good video.
Nice video and good practice, I was personally kept old cars and strip them for part because I always use cars from same manufacturer and close to the same age, great to have spare parts that you don't need to buy for much more money. Great video Dony as always.
I know this video is about STIHL saws but I recently got very lucky when I bought a Husqvarna 350 saw off ebay that was being sold as a parts saw. The saw was missing the bar and chain and the chain brake lever which I had a bar that fit and just bought a new chain and brake lever. Anyway, I wasn't sure what to expect when the saw arrived, the seller said it had compression. I bought the saw to fix up for myself because I wanted a good reliable saw. Well when I got the saw I pulled the rope and it had very strong compression so I put some fresh 50:1 mixed gas in it, set the choke and pressed the decompression valve and it fired right up, nothing even wrong with it, the only thing I had to do was adjust the high speed screw on the carb. This saw is equipped with a decompression valve and doesn't have a primer. Great videos btw, I've learned some new things from your vids. I might make a video sometime soon of this saw starting up.
Good buy, an 026 and an 024 are exactly the same other than a couple of covers and the bore size, most parts are interchangeable.
i didnt expect the engines to be much cop really, but as you said some usefull parts :-)
I would do a full stripdown on both and clean in the parts washer, then dump the bits in a plastic box for your picking later on :-)
I bought a used 029 and put a 039 big bore kit in it, and did some porting and muffler mod runs awesome but uses the up the gas!
Donny,
Thanks for the reply; I purchased the saw in Lindsay Ont over 10 years ago, only tried to use it on one occasion.

I have an 026. It’s my main saw. Eric.
hey man nice videos you should make a video of all of the chainsaws you own . im sure all of us would like to see your chain saw collection
Good find. Extra parts are always handy.
Good idea Go for parts ! Will be cutting dead bushes today today with my Stihl!
You are a master of your craft.
That is a great idea to have saws like those which you can use for parts for the saws you already have. I have a older Poulan which I purchased new in 2000, and I never used it that much, and it was a nice saw for me. The newer Stihl, and Poulan Pro saws I have is totally different and both saws are currently in the shop and the Stihl have been the worst for me. The Poulan Pro is a new saw and I have not started it yet due to a problem from the factory.
This is why I'm a Husqvarna man. Those Stihl's are a pain to work on. Have to take off tons of pieces to work on anything whereas a Husky is much simpler. Good score though. Can easily triple your money selling parts off of those.
thanks for watching
Im starting to like older chainsaws. There are some neat ones out there and i had one of my own for a while there. It was a Remington Super 660.. that thing... was terrifying to even start lol
the best is to buy the fuel when you need it, buy the highest octane (hopefully less ethanol in it) add a bit of stabilizer
In europe a parted out 026 will bring between 250 and 300€. So its a great deal.
I have exactly the same saws. :) 026 PRO from 2001 and 2002, and 024 from 1987. 024 runs, but I have to restore 026es, and I have so many questions since I'm very green in this field.
Nice! Someone must a run em on straight gasoline for a bit! My grandpa has a stihl 026 and it used to be a beastly saw. Still runs his does, but he let someone borrow it and unfortunately they ran straight fuel through it!
Hello Donnie glad to see the cutscene with these machines that I showed skaipa will be glad to well and see you soon, until recently
yes for sure, I got the little helicopter yesterday
same as usual, still caregiving to my wife
another great video Dony! I'm sure you gonna use all the parts, there's nothing better than having your own parts so you don't have to order parts online! take care
i have a crapload of parts in a big tupperware container. it is all stuff i found at the dump. most of it i will not use in my lifetime but a couple of thoes parts have saved my ass a couple times !
yes it's fun, how is the big you have? where does it come from
Another great video! How do you store and organize your used parts saws/engines? Do you have shelves or boxes pertaining to different models? I need to find a system to organize my stuff so my wife will stop telling me I'm just collecting junk! I don't blame her at this point, lol!
One garbage is another's treasure
Congrats on your good finds.
I see all your videos and appreciate all of your tips and ideas.
I have a question. The use of fuel without oil is obviously a bad idea, but how bad is it to have too much oil?
Greetings from Sweden :-)
You are thinking Don.I have parts everywhere. But i can take something and use it.awesome thinking.Maybe i can get you a part in the states if you ever need.
in Canada it's close to $100
Crank Seals are a huge problem with older saws.....You get an air leak in the Crank case, it basically burns up the piston. The parts are cheap....just an Extra Labor item to consider. If your saw Revs without warning, or has erratic Idling problems, and you can't figure it out, HUGE red flag....sometimes trouble starting too.
I'm very sure that $50 was a Great Deal for the seller also!
Hey Dony do you collect any vintage stuff? We collect old garden tractors like case and Jacobsen
you should do a vid on what to look for when buying a used chainsaw
I know there was no compression but would it be worth rebuilding these or any others that might have scored pistons?
I am looking to get a top end for my Stihl from ebay. Should I stay away from the Chinese kits (Huztl)? I know they are tempting because of the price but how did you find the quality when you replaced the top end on that husky, and has it been back from repair because of it? Or should I spend a couple extra shillings on a kit from Baileys? Thanks
good idea, I may do that
Hi dony, I enjoy watching your videos. They are great for people like me who have never worked on machines before and are interested in learning this stuff. I have a question for you or anyone that can answer really. My poulan pro (briggs 19.5) is blowing white smoke, could this be my piston rings? It seems like there is build up in my exhaust. There is also a lot of gunk around my valve cover and below it down to my exhaust. The machine runs fine, but I don't know where to start. Thx.
thanks bro
I agree spare parts are good.
Good video
some are Nikasil coated and will be better even from huztl
Aloha Dony.. here is a question for you that i can't seem to find the answer for . it is regarding 2 stroke( 2 cycle ) vs 4 stroke small engines. I have 3 stihl pole saws that are the new 4mix engines. I just found out that these are 4 cycle engines. I was doing a compression test and found that they all have around 60 to 70 psi. I thought they were done but they are run perfectly just like new. I have contacted stihl to see what the compression was when these engines were new and waiting on a reply from them. In the meantime i am a bit confused as to why these run great with the low compression. Is it because they have valves and are 4 cycle engines ? Almost all 4 cycle engines i work on all have low compression. Lawn mowers, rototillers, pressure washers, generators etc... all have 40 to 60 psi and run great. This has got me a confused on these new 4mix engines. I know that 2 stroke weed eaters and other 2 stroke equipment has to have at least 90 or above to work to pull the fuel through the carburetor but these new 4mix have me a bit confused as to how they actually work. What are your thoughts and understanding on these 4 cycle engines. Thanks for any input . Mahalo
first nice day today, it's been cold
I do the same thing, good job and equipment
they are all in boxes
I have a Stihl 024 Wood Boss with a hard pull. I've taken it to a repair shop to fix the hard pull and it didn't work. Do you have a video on how to repair a hard pull on the cord?
are you selling or giving?
Well done my friend!
near bracebridge
they probably would need kits
GREAT , THANK YOU!
a rebuild vid for a 026 would be greatly appreciated. i was given one and i got it going then it started to die like it was running out of fuel. now there is no compression. so i figure i will need to replace the piston and head cylinder. i watch all of your vids and know you have covered this on a diff saw. if you have any 026 specific info that would be great. i may actually just buy an electric saw because i don't live in the woods and an e-saw may be cheaper than the parts to fix the 026
I was hoping you would revive one of them. But parts are parts. I just have too many parts laying around, but I am not in the business.
You still see any of the old homelite super xls come through? we had a handful of them coming through with the hand pump oilers points ignition like 15 years ago at a shop I worked at in Michigan
not as many now
good information, thank you...
I've already used some parts
right you are, alot of good parts.
Nice find.
What after market cylinder’s and piston do you get? Thanks
Great video thanks. Still hoping to see how to fix the trigger mechanism on a makita DCS 520, can you help? Thanks!
These are the professional grades,Stihl 026 and the other a Stihl 024AV. They are great.
Great find.
How are things at home? I haven't heard in a long time.
Take care!!
I've never referred to something being pooched lol but you can never have too much parts, you never know when you will need them even if something doesn't run its still has good cosmetic parts. :→)
Do you harvest the parts or leave assembled unitl needed?
So Don you will use these chain saws for parts and that means taking them apart and cleaning all the parts and storing them in a used parts container? Question, if someone comes in and needs a part for their machine, you sell them a used part for their machine. How do you know how much to charge them for a used part?
026 is same air fiter my 28 has what cause when to do that ?
jb weld might work
too much oil can cause excessive carbon build up which can break off and go into the cylinder and score it and the piston and rings
Have you ever had a Poulan 245a or Poulan 306a come in your shop before?
I would be so grateful,if you can explain something about fuel.
If I make mix 1:50 and leave in bottle two months,after two months may I use it or no?
What could you recommend?
Thanks in advance.
Are the carburetor's good.
Hey, if those ignition modules work, you got your money back. Yeah.
Very smart!
Thanks

25 each is a lot. I paid 15 in the us for a working dual stage snowblower
Danny, I have an 038AV for a number if years; purchased it looking lightly used. However the gas tank has a crack in it. What can I do - can I use an epoxy glue along the crack?
Thanks,
Alan in Alberta
not at the moment, a good place to check is ebay
nice find
Do you have a video on replacing the hydro drive on a riding lawn mower? I have a craftsman ys4500.
Does working small engines pay good ( decent ) Just wondering
Like to get this saw running good; are you in Thunder bay?
Alan
not too much videos for pressure washers, I only saw one, and you discuss whats wrong with it no repair done
Good stuff
What is the cost of a new carburetor
MS 038 AV. Sti in ce an sa-u fabricat multumesc.
donyboy 73 awesome videos, I was gonna ask do you know how to remove the muffler bolts from a Stihl ms 171?? Thank you for your time
i acquired a stihl farm-boss 026 with a seized engine for free. id like to replace the top end with the 039 kit. do you recommend any aftermarket companies for parts. it'll only be for home use. ie, firewood. thx
huztl on ebay
Good buy.
for sure, I've already used parts from them
I would have haggled to 25 for both
Origin of all helicopters (90%) is from china, cheapest manufacturing is the reason. I didn't have a chance to fly big one yet, this winter is so annoying... Can't wait to try it out, but I'm little scared not to crash it, and if I do it'll be hard for me to buy new parts. Must be very careful and practice on the simulator before any attempt outside.
hey dony do u have a gas tank and a muffler for a stihl o44
How is the weather in Canada?
