    • @uncletacosupreme7023

      I think the newer they are the more problems they have. It is a quality issue. I just bought a 271 and It takes me forever to get it fired up. My old 251 fires up without hesitation but it is not always big enough to handle the job. Listen at how this thing runs. You can tell it just runs because there is nothing to it. Its timeless. This thing will last another 50 years if its cared for.

    That old chainsaw had all the indications of very little use or rebuild prior to neglect. The chain sprocket had almost no wear as did the teeth on the chain. Also the piston and cylinder bore were very little worn. Almost like it was bought for one job then stuck away for years........... although the handle and trigger say it had quite a bit of use. Anyway you did a marvellous job restoring it and the way it ran made me smile. Well done.

    On a safety note, *always* wrap your thumb around the front handle when you're running the saw. Opposing your thumb to the rest of your fingers will prevent the saw from slipping out of your grip and towards you if it ever kicks back. Nice work!

    I’ve got an 1968 Stihl 08 . Still starts on pull of the cord . Only modifications was the exhaust, couldn’t get a factory one so adapted off a later model with 3x4mm holes to get the compression right and now only run a 17in bar instead of the 21in . Also replaced the oil pump about 20yrs back . Has been consistently cutting 15T of firewood every year for the 50yrs I’ve had it . Awesome bit of kit .😊

    Seriously incredible work. My second video watching of yours and now I will subscribe. What really impresses me is the eclectic nature of your knowledge and skill set. You have to know a lot about everything to take on restorations and it’s just awe striking. Thanks for the inspiration!
