My Son found one of these blowers on the curb, out for trash. He took it to a shop that sais it was locked up do to no oil. Shared your video with him. Yep, screws loose. He now has a perfectly running blower. Thanks for saving time, money & frustration!

@@Chickanic Bre, got to help me! Is a loose chain the main cause why a chain becomes dislodged while it’s running? I had this problem with my MS170 when I use a third-party bar and chain combination. Having problems with my Timberwolf. It’s the 20 inch Oregon bar & chain. I swear it’s tight.
Check the bar along its grooves that the chain runs in. You need to take bar off saw. Look along the chain grooves. If one side higher than other. You will have issues. You can reclaim bar by refacing the bar grooves with a bench grinder. Run bar along grinder. Get grooves equal again.
The easiest way to remove the flywheel on these 4140 motors is to back the flywheel nut off until it is flush with the end of the crankshaft, then sit the unit upright. Use a brass or aluminium drift and with one or two decent hits to the crank end, it will pop off. Bonus is the nut protects the thread and the flywheel doesn't fall too far. Also take great care lining the key up as it is cast into the flywheel and if damaged will require replacement of the flywheel. The Stihl hedge trimmers that use the 4140 motor are also known to have a similar issue with the screw coming loose.
correct. vibration wreaks havoc on carbs and fasteners. i too have rebuilt carbs that still leaked. best repair is to replace. il throw my thumb pump on the carb and if it dont hold i will toss it.
GREAT VIDEO!! This is exactly what my issue was! I was blowing leaves, my blower made a weird metal "thrapping" sound, then jammed and stopped. 5 minutes later I found this video. It took me about 20 - 25 minutes to disassemble, clean the parts, add locktite to the bolts, and reassemble. 30 minutes later from time of blower stopping, I was back out blowing leaves. This saved me money and time! And considering the turn around time of at least two weeks to get my blower back from the shop if I brought it in. Thank you!
Awesome video, straight to the heart of the matter! Never would have thought about that being the problem. Thanks for another way to "avoid frustration!"
Girl, YOU are such an inspiration to me and so many others. If it doesn’t work you jump right in and find out why and then help us old folks (youngsters too) fix it. Thank you! Dave in Traverse City, Michigan.
Wish you had done this video 6 months ago when I trashed my makita blower. After stripping it to pieces, I found a loose bolt under the fan which locked up my unit. So mad at myself that I assumed it was a bad bearing but oh well. It was drinking oil too so its life was near the end. Keep up the good work.
This was exactly what was up with my blower. 10 min fix. The armpit leverage was a game changer. Thanks for your videos. (If you ever see this comment)
Hi Bre, I wanted to tell you about what I did to my friends weed eater! His son brought it to my house to cut down some weeds around my house! No gas in it put non ethanol fuel in it. Still sounds funky check the oil cause it's a 4 cycle engine and no oil. So all I had at the time I had some mercon 5 transmission oil it ran smooth and even started up easy next day.
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I searched for seized bg56 and found your channel. I had already phoned the Stihl dealer to order a new one. After watching your explanation I found the three bolts had loosened and locked up the flywheel. Followed your instructions and cleaned up all the grease, used your long handled screwdriver armpit manoeuvre and the flywheel came off with a few taps. Three loose screws, cleaned and replaced. Tidied up like new, decoked the exhaust whilst everything was open, cleaned up, replaced the pull start and plug. Started on first pull! Now to phone the dealer to cancel my order! Thank you once again, you are the man!👍😀
Wow. Nice diagnosis. I work on small engines and would not have thought of a lose bolt causing that ?!?! Yes I have 2 stroke dirt bikes and they do rattle themselves to pieces 😂. Always got to check the bolts after a wash.
THANK YOU. I am not a small engine mechanic, but I am the "guy" all my neighbors bring their non-working equipment. I had a Troy Bilt WW come in that was locked up. The Recoil starter rope Paul's had self destructed and then messed up the fan behind it which jammed the crankshaft. Luckily I had watched this video before I tore into it.
Stihl makes a tool that you thread on the crankshaft. You run it down to the flywheel then back it up a half turn them hang the unit by your hand and give it a good sharp blow with a hammer. Loosens it right up. And there not that expensive. I use on in my shop and it fits 90% of Husqvarna crankshafts.
Thanks for your video, I had the same issue. Please note, after I completed the fix, I couldn't get it to throttle up without dying. Took it apart and found that the flywheel key was smoothed out. Found one on ebay for $45 + $10 shipping, and now it runs great.
In in the UK the hourly rate for repair is £120PH minimum 1 hour charge half the price of the machine I've got 7 of this blower I need to repair so these videos have been a god send thx.
Love your videos... very helpful. I wonder tho if you could use a gear puller.... instead of that armpit trick. I guess not many people have a gear puller or a steering wheel puller or whatever, but it might be nice to know that there IS an actual tool that does that job...
I did this repair about 5 years ago. But I needed help getting flywheel off. I ran over to a friend with repair training. He thought I missed diagnosed it! He helped me get flywheel off and was surprised that it was just the bolts coming loose. Wish all repairs were this easy!
Exactly the problem I had with my Stihl wood boss. Fixed it in five minutes! Thank you for making this video and I sent you a financial thank you as well.
I bought a chain saw several years ago (not Sthil) and it had a screw behind the flywheel backout just like this. Almost new saw for $25.......WIN !!!! Love your channel. I have learned a bunch.
If you spin the flywheel 1/4 turn after you hit the crank a time or two it will pop right off. It helps by shifting the pressure on the taper of the crank. I also always spray a little PB blaster on the crank before I start then again after the nut is off to help with getting the flywheel off the crank taper.
ah...the old Hydro lock spectre..Thank you for pointing this out ! I just love a lady who has a brain, knows how to use it , is not afraid to get her hands dirty and repairs stuff!
The only thing I recommend doing differently is when you start a 2 cycle like this or a chainsaw or weedeater, give it a min or two at idle to warm up. The cylinder will last much longer if you do. (although she could have pre-started it for the video anyway) but she shows herself starting it and immediately grabbing it and going to town blowing off the driveway. Give that little piston and cylinder a chance to warm up before hammering down on them.
Bre, You are amazing. Thank you for another wonderful video. I would have never guessed that it would have been a loose crew. Your videos and your channels are always so informative and very entertaining. I wish you always continued health, happiness, and prosperity. Thank you again for all you do.👍🙂👋
Bre! You never cease to amaze me! Thanks for another great video. I'd never guess. BTW, thanks for for taking a picture with me a couple weeks ago. I'm the guy with the blues t-shirt on. You're such a good sport, and trooper! Please say cool and hydrated, it's brutally hot here in Arkansas! You're the goodest! thanks for all you do! 😇🥰
Very nice! Glad I found your channel. Mine ended up being one of the screws on the opposite side, behind the impeller. This, of course, only after having removed the flywheel to find nothing there. But it was a great learning experience, and I enjoyed watching you do what you do. Keep it up!
Great video Bre, I knew an old lawnmower mechanic that would pop a flywheel on a push mower by taking a hard blow hammer and hit the side the of the flywheel opposite the magnet side. Of coarse on a small flywheel like that you have, you would need a smaller hammer and a steady hand.
I have the same Stihl BG-86, never have had the carb problem or screws backing out but have twice replaced the crankshaft bearings. Probably caused by shredder vac usage (and sucking in wet organic matter) causing imbalance of the rotating assembly. Great video and as always enjoy the learning!
I Just Found Your Channel !!! 😃 A Wealth of Information ! Off Track my Stihl KM 110 R 20 Years Old from 2003 had SHORT RUN Times and Quit, Adjusted Valves (to tight) and REMOVED Air Filter and ONE pull Started !!! I will goto Stihl Dealer and get Various Parts Plus that Grease for the String Head and the other Grease for the Hedge Trimmer ! Thanks for Your Wisdom !!!
Good information, I have a Stihl blower vac that’s around 8 years old and it works great. It’s good to know what to look out for and stay ahead of the curve with these quirky little machines. Thanks.
Great video. Your video worked as planned Gets me why stilhl when building unit wouldn’t use red Loctite. I removed bolts cleaned up and red loctite. Left over nite to dry and worked great the next day. Thank you
Dog Gone Chickanic, you did 'er again ! I am going to keep that one in mind as I have a Stihl hand held blower which is approx. 20 plus years old, yet still looks like new { no exaggeration } but have never had that problem because I keep my equipment in primo condition.
I was about to take my locked up blower to ACE and have their guy take a look at it but then I had a better thought and looked up your video. Shure enough the screws behind the flywheel backed out. Thank you very much! You are awesome!
I enjoy your videos and find them clear, informative and helpful. Do you answer any questions concerning how to fix an issue? I’m in Tn and not near any small engine repair shops. Thanks
Hi Bre we love your videos, so informative and helpful. I live in the UK and have a Mountfield 1538M ride on. Recently I've ben having trouble with shifting through the gears mainly from reverse to 1st. I was wondering if you have ideas for me please TIA😊
Hi Chickanic. Had the same problem come in this week. Got sprayed in fuel a bit as it was totally full of fuel. 3 days later still hasn't flooded. And I also locktite those bolts in now when they come out. Weird vibration problem? Update Less than 24 hrs later after watching this video I had one come in and it was the fan side bolts that had come loose. Easy diag, engines loose.😂 Took about 30 mins to remove the pipe, fan cover, fan (left hand threaded nut), clean the bolts and threads, lock tite them and reasemble 😁
Great video. In a pinch, I'm wondering if it might be easier to drill a small hole in the flywheel so you can get a torx bit on the screw? If balance is an issue, drill a second hole across from it.
Depending on the radius, drilling a single hole might unbalance the flywheel enough to be a problem at operating RPM. The fix would be to drill a second matching hole 180 degrees, same radius.

Could you tag me on how to replace the crank cord
These companies should spend an extra twenty five cents and add locktite to problem areas. Great video as usual.
Dude; it's called planned obsolescence. They know exactly how long it will take for these screws to back out and how many blowers get tossed.
@@jdkrxw They should also know if their over priced junk locks up and I have to buy a new one, why would I buy another one from THEM?
@@jdkrxw Stihl used to be the Cadillac of equipment. Not so much anymore.
Don't use the red!
no they shouldnt that keeps chickanic in buisness
25 years as a maintenance mechanic and this is the first time I've seen the "arm pit " move. Genius !!

Nice. I personally have an electric blower, but I know this will help a lot of Stihl people though. Nice video.🤘
Nice fix! Your diagnosis process is spot on. BTW, digging the Calypso Caribbean music in the wrench time.

Always a fun start to a Friday, with another good video from Chickanic! Thank you.
Regardless of its flaws, it’s a 1000 better than my old Husqvarna!
Thank you for posting this video. Just fixed my Stihl blower using your advice and I feel like a champ! Cheers!!
Air hammer with a blunt tip against the loose nut works good to for those flywheel nuts. May be a little more one person friendly.
Definitely not a claw hammer, a ball peen has it's weight in the right place. Or air hammer lol

Had the same problem come in this week.
Got sprayed in fuel a bit as it was totally full of fuel.
