Would some one be able to tell me if their is a very detailed video on You Tube , on how to replace the solenoid on a Stihl MS261. I have the new solenoid/filter kit part no:1140-007-1802 to replace the old one.Any advice from any of you that have actually changed the solenoid would be much appreciated.

Did mine a few years back. I thought it was quite straightforward. From memory when you  unclipped the wiring it left a small (fiddly) screw to remove and this held a small retaining plate. 

 

Keep everything spotless and oil up the new solenoid o-rings before refitting. 

 

Again from memory only 30 mins work end to end.

Chap in the clip says about moving the retaining clip out of the way. This is the most difficult bit of the whole process but not beyond the skills of a maintainer.  Forewarned , forearmed etc.
