Chainsaw wont start

[Stubby]

No . You get a proper tank vent and replace the screw with the vent that should be there . That is if it is a screw . If its the proper tank vent then leave it as it is .

This is an old post, but exactly the same issue. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/chainsaws/49159-stihl-025-a.html

 

The 025 and your Ms230 share the same main case apart from the 230 uses the new fuel and oil caps.

Ive just checked and the red/orange vent isn't available separately and according to that post the grub screw is the correct repair.

Ok thank you, so this black grub screw stays...hurrah!

Bloody hell, I have missed all the fun, that saw has seen a bit more life than 10 starts but at least it runs. Not sure why the plug was dry with the arm being that high but at least we got there in the end:thumbup:

more than 10 starts - seeing the worn dogs my thoughts exactly - at least it starts now

[Harry_L]

Haha you sure have, and i agree it probably had been used more than 10 times, but at least it works....for now!!! Hahaha

Thanks for your help spud!
