The only reason for the original post is that all I read is how bad the first series m tronic black solenoid is,, mine has been flawless now for 8 years,, I do look after my saws and get a long life out of them compared to company saws .. I just want to future proof the 201 by having most likely needed spares in stock in the workshop, after this long even tho she runs fine I’d prefer to strip and overhaul to limit the chance of it breaking down on a job .. I do all work on my own saws and thought as we moved into m tronic and autotune it was gonna make them impossible for us to work on and fix… it seems not 👍🏻

Green solenoid, the latest fuel filter, they are orange, a couple of brake bands, top handle frame, air filter cover, if anyone has one that is cracked or damaged replace it asap as it stops the air filter from sealing and you will get a lot of crap going into the engine,  and some av's for the side handle at the bottom where it attaches to the crankcase should more or less do it

Bewty,, cheers .. pretty much ordered that lot today expect brake bands and air filter cover .. I used to hate rainy day workshop maintenance sessions when I worked for a company, now in my older age it’s kinda what I do for fun 🤣

good info cheers
