From memory, I thought al the earth connections join on the top coil connection and this wire goes from the top coil screw and ends up joining the engine just behind the flywheel. I try to avoid these saws, bad experiences on them!!!!

Not sure why you have so many earth connections on yours, one should earth the coil laminations and the other provide an earth to the kill wire....you seem to have two earth connections and a spare one???

thanks spud  anything else to look out for ? From your bad experiences ? 

Hi guys, just replaced the bearing on a stihl 039. Tried to start it and it backfires, I’ve checked the flywheel is on the spine, but I did forget where this earth cable went so I left it out ? am guessing I’ve been a idiot. Can anyone tell me where it should connect?? Cheers 

hi guys, 

i do a lot of repairs on machines chainsaws, strimmers est i was wonder is there a way i can get parts list easily online or do you have to be a dealer. it would make life easier. if i could  just call F.R JONES or my local dealer with part numbers  rather then spend ages finding the parts number when am on the phone or in the shop.  or am i stuck looking online for old parts lists that may have wrong part numbers or hours on the phone ordering parts. 

cheers 

Hi guys, 

just moved to the Inverness area and fun search of some nice timber to build a kitchen and bookcase. Anyone up this way that could point me the right place or tell me if you mill your own stuff. 

Cheers Matt
