Hi Thank you Do you know why they updated these? I've got 1 of each as I expected them to be different so unsure if I can get away with using 1 of each Cheers

Hi all Looking at piston rings for a ms200t and have noticed that on L&S Iit shows two part numbers for rings. 1114 034 3001 4119 034 3003 Both are showing as 40mmx1.5mm and visually look the same to me? Guess maybe one will be the top ring? Any one have experience of this? Cheers

Hi all, Regarding the pump, I haven't got a proper pressure/vac tester so I have rigged up a old vaccum bleeder to test vac bit would need a pump for the pressure test, I should really invest in the proper kit. There is 7 good compression saws and 3 bad so I plan to steal parts of the bad 3 if required. The interference bung is a nice idea although I don't have access to a lathe, presume that would be required. Any one ever tryed threading the hole and fitted a grub screw? Should get the first two vac tested tonight, hopefully also pressure tested. Should know more about how these will go then. Cheers

Cheers for the replys I've ordered the adapter flange for the Inlet for the vac/pressure test, just need to sort out fittings to allow use of the vac bleeder. I'll need a pump also but I imagine a basic hand pump could be made to work here. I'll blank the exhuats as you describe All the saws are showing slight up and down play in the crank, 2 slightly more than the rest. I've picked 2 at random, I'll vac/pressure test and go from there I guess. Regarding carbs, these two are both fitted with the s126a, looks to have the accelerator pump. Would you advise the blanking/glue method over replacing the piston? If I end up splitting cases etc is it worth fitting new rings or leave whats not broke alone? Cheers

Hi all Newbie to fourm here I've manged to get my self a job lot of 10 ms200t with the intention of carrying out repairs to sell on. 6-7 feel to have good compression so I'm starting with those. (topped out at about 160 psi on my gauge?) Im not too faimialr with 2 strokes/chainsaws so I'm hoping you guys may be able to point me straight. Parts, I'm after bars, chains and various ms200t specific parts such as chain sprocket covers, fuel lines, av mounts maybe even crank seals etc. Best place I've found so is L&s engineers? Any others I should try? Crank play, I've found end play in the cranks on all the saws, is there a maximum measurement? I've also found slight up and down play in the cranks (only checked on clutch side), how much is allowed? Vac and pressure testing, I've got myself a cheap vac bleeding kit and the stihl adapter that fits in place of the carb, I've never done this before so any advice appreciated. Value, whata the value of a vac tested, good compression saw these days? And finally, carbs. I've jumped the gun a bit here and got two Chinese carbs, any one have experience here? Sorry for the wall of text, I've got a lot of questions haha Kyle
