Echo CS2511TES chattering/bouncing problem

[kram]

For now this chains a one-off so wont be doing more anytime soon, should last ages and I have 3 good original chains to be used up.

 

Mark is correct, LSE do have the tie straps. I'm sure I previously looked and couldnt find any.. anyway as they are not suitable for other brands I have no use for any more right now.

 

Anyway as for the cutters, looks almost identical to the originals except a slightly more square on the chisel. Hope to try it next week!

 

 

Need to also get the 1/4" sprocket off and try the 3/8" in this..

If you're going to change the sprocket, try the Oregon conversion kit. It's. 325 1.1mm running 46 links, 5/32 file to sharpen which is the same as a 200t etc. The full kit (bar, sprocket and chain) is around £32 +vat which is £6 less than an oem echo sprocket

I dont see what the advantage is compared to 3/8". Oregon just making a new standard for the fun of it, yet its semi chisel only.

 

Just reminded me about the 020T! My oil caps been falling off randomly and discovered the thread has cracked, need to order a new one.

Stay tuned for next week’s exciting episode where Kram will attempt to invent the wheel!

You mean one of these yokes?

 

[Mark Bolam]

Similar.

Where can I get an 020T oil cap from then? lSR list about 20 variations and not clear what will fit, and rhe ones I can see, seem to have a plastic  keeper thing, rather than the string/ball thing that is captive in the saw.

You can only get those caps from here

Oil Cap - Stihl - 0000 350 0510

SKYLANDEQUIPMENT.COM

Filler Cap - Stihl MS201T. Filler cap for Stihl MS201T.

 

OK not really since we wont have anymore in stock until the middle of next week.

My old one looks like that on the screw cap except has the ball string like this one. I dont want the flip cap type and dont think it fits anyway. Do you have that?

[Mark_Skyland]

You can pull the leg part off which leaves you with the ball. Which exact model of stihl do you have?
