Old toothbrushes are perfect for cleaning the gunk out of the nooks and crannies. I've got the newer MS180, with one nut and the handy oil and fuel caps. Great little machine. Thanks for the vid. I usually take it to the Stihl shop for this kind of thing but now I'll have a go myself.

Old tooth brush, aircompressor and a cloth will get it cleaned up. Also my son suggested a spraycan degreaser which works really well to make it look as good as new

[@calvinsm]

Thanks for the very helpful, concise tutorial!

[@gunnadoofarm5109]

Glad you liked it. I will be doing another video on the 180 soon

[@lukewiltshire4700]

there's a notch in the back of the sprocket drum, its for the oil pump drive in behind the clutch, if you don't line it up properly the sprocket drum sits up higher and the clip wont go on easily, not to mention you might have issues with the oiling side of things, just a handy little tip for ya!!

[@gunnadoofarm5109]

Yep, it is easy to tell if it hasn't lined up as it won't sit square. Great tip.

I've had ms 180s for over 15 years. Know everything about them. But still like to comment little tips about them
