[@TORAH-613]

Is this an issue when the saw is stored and sitting in the upright position? If so I have a Remington Outlaw RM4620 saw that does the same thing. I bought it brand new and used it the first time, stored it away and went back the next day and all my bar oil had leaked out.

[@415horse]

@@TORAH-613 Yes same thing stores upright in the case...new saw to much oil leaks out

[@jackbloznowski5429]

The best tips for chainsaws are from this man!!!!!

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Glad you think so!

Anybody can do work on a chainsaw when drinking 1/2 a beer, drink a 12 pack and then make the video.

[@harveyroad6]

When I fire up the BBQ, the wife asks me how long the burgers will take. My answer is two beers. One for the warm up the other to cook them. Perfect burgers everytime. Why rush it eh? Really appreciate the technical consultations that you produce. Sounds better than tips eh? Cheers from Massawippi QC. CANADA. bud!

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Right on Mikey! Thank You...

[@quebird3108]

I've seen this video before, but why not again. Best evidence of sanity I can see from our northern neighbor is this site. Thanks again, Steve. Love the site.

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Wow, thank you

[@OffGrid9]

Steve, first off, thank you for this video. I wanted to tell you that the orange plastic plug can also be found on some of the mid-size Stihl chainsaws, or at least it was there on the old ones. I have a 1993 Stihl 029, 54.1 cc, called the "Farm Boss" back then -- today's Farm Boss (the 271) is a bit smaller, 50.2 cc, but has similar performance, apparently. The current 291 is closer in engine size (55.5 cc). Anyway, my old 029 has had a slow oil-leak for years. After seeing this video, I checked, and sure enough, it has the orange plastic plug, and it was almost out of its hole. I tried pressing it back in, but after only a couple hours run-time it was backing out again. I ordered the little set-screw from my local Stihl repair shop (...and you were right, they didn't even know about this problem). I installed the set screw, with one thread visible, and the oil leak stopped...BUT the set-screw wasn't very tightly held, and after a few days working on winter blow-downs, it had worked it's way out almost another full thread. I removed it, cleaned the hole and the screw with some non-chlorinated brake cleaner, replaced the screw with just a tiny drop of blue LocTite, and it has stayed fixed for the last month of work. Problem solved. Thank you. One last question: I used engine degreaser for years to get rid of all the oil-soaked sawdust (...yeah, I'm a bit OCD about getting it really clean), but I didn't like using water to rinse, so I switched to brake-cleaner (non-chlorinated to protect the plastic). Last year I grabbed a can of (what I thought was) non-chlorinated brake cleaner, but it was the chlorinated variety. I thought maybe I'd ruined the saw. But to my surprise, it didn't seem to do any damage to the cover-assembly or any of the other plastic parts. So was I just lucky? I really liked that it cleaned better, and evaporated instantaneously, unlike the non-chlorinated stuff. I'd like to keep using it, but I worry that long-term use could damage the saw. What say you, Steve?

[@michaelc.6927]

Oh Steve, You really crack me up the way you include the beer thing as a crutial step in your repairs. giggle, giggle!! I have enjoyed watching several of your videos and appreciate the helpful info. And yes the beer does help when those tense moments arise!! Keep up the good work!!

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Thank You...

[@bobtomlinson8247]

Once again ...great tech info and entertainment all in one superb edition. I knew you would have the answer to all the oil pooled in the tailgate of my 6x4 Big Country. Now I will have to check to see if my Echo 310 has the same issue allowing all its oil to pool in the same tailgate. I have learned this as well. If half a can of C2 H5 02 (ethyl alcohohol) is enough for you it will take a full can or a can and a half for me to get it done as time is the issue as I have. Great stuff Steve!

[@dmorgan28]

Thanks Steve. Mine has been leaking. It is an 036. I will be checking it. Thanks again👍👍👍❤️

[@kenhurley4441]

I quit drinking beer several years ago. However I think I could down one jusr to fix my oil leak on my Stihl chainsaw. Gonna get the part this afternoon. Thanks for the video and the info!

[@Cubasenet33]

A great thank you, Steve. Most dealers know nothing about this 000 953 1001 solution. I had this problem (dry chain plus oily chainsaw and floor), which ruined my chain, my bar and I don't know if the piston /segments also... The solution proposed by the dealer was to make a short iron cillinder to obturate the hole. What I did instead was taking a M6 allen screw, shortening it and tapering the threads at the end. It solved the problem. Unfortunately I didn't watch your vid by this time. Your information is so needed! (even for dealers). Many people is complaining of this problem. I thought this issue affected just to my model (MS 230), but I see this is not the case.

[@johnfletcher7144]

I enjoy your videos tremendously. I'm a visual learner and your videos are the perfect learning venue for me. I watched your "10 worst comments" video and was so disappointed in those comments. I think you're doing a super job and I am so grateful for all you're doing to assist us DIY guys to learn ways to be self reliant. I hope you continue the videos. By the way, Abe was right. You can't please all the people all the time. John Fletcher

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

Right on John...

[@MrKakuaa]

Thanks Steve. You are right on bullseye. Thanks for sharing inside technical bulletin of Stihl. Very fact that most of the dealer or technicians never read or update the knowledge. Keep up the great service to mankind. Wish you great success and prosperity. Thanks again.

[@StevesSmallEngineSaloon]

You're Welcome...and Thank You...

[@keithhaines5784]

Thank you for your video!! I saw a bunch of oil line and oil cap replacement videos, but my little saw already had the oil tank line replaced and its not leaking from the fill cap. My saw will leak out while the saw is not running just sitting in the case. It will leak out the entire tank full until its empty. I will try this now. Thanks again!!

[@jeffreyharmon7543]

Thank you for this video. I have been trying to fix this issue with my saw for weeks. You are correct about the dealers not reading there bulletin 🤦‍♂️ I found this part on amazon using the part number you listed and have it on the way. Thanks a million 😊

you are a treasure man! i solved a oil leak at a hitachi cs 51eap at ventilation valve- a piece of rubber. most of time oil leaking on my pants rather guide bar. i made a tread, i screw a bolt, maximise the oil at pump and start engine, throtle max and chain spitting oil on a piece of wood. thanks again, i have to buy a coffee to you!

Thank You...

[@thewoodchucker-doug4303]

Thanks Steve! I have a MS 170 and it has leaked since new, usually into the bottom of the chain saw case.

[@jim778]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have been having this leaking oil problem for years with my Stihl and have told the Stihl repairman about it every time I have taken it to the shop for other reasons. It hasn't been in the shop a lot but I have told them and its never has been fixed or has been fixed to stop leaking. I will now look at that place on my saw myself and maybe this has been my trouble. Thanks for this video. I have had my Stihl 20 years plus and its been one of the best investments I ever made.

My old 036 has leaked bar oil since it was new back in 1994. I just assumed that it was normal. It’s been a great saw. Cut a lot of firewood with it over the years and it’s never even had a carb kit put in it. It Stihl runs like a beast but it sure makes a mess inside the plastic case I keep it in.

[@farriermechanic4477]

Steve, I have watched many of your videos and appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us. I have a Stihl 041 AV that I bought new many years ago. But it has an oil leak from the oil tank and I can’t figure out how to replace whatever it is I need to replace to get it to stop. Since there are still many of these old saws out there, could you possibly show us how to replace the oil line or get that thing to stop leaking. Thanks

[@iamhistory]

This was a revelation! I've had a little MS180 mini-boss for years and it's the worst chainsaw I've ever owned. It's been leaking oil since almost as long as I've had it but I didn't bother doing anything about it since it mostly sits in the garage. Thing always needs worked on, won't cut even with a new chain, no power.......pain in the butt. I'll stick with my Huskies.....they are the best saws I own. Thanks for the video.....you have motivated me to put a little more tlc into the Stihl and give it some more use and see what happens.

Thanks for the tip Steve - recently purchased my first Stilh chainsaw (MS-291) - I cut about 4 cords of wood a year - I bought it from a local Stihl dealer - I used it for less than an hour and half a tank of fuel (the fuel the dealer filled it with) - After using it to cut down an ash tree and cut a few limbs and two 8 foot logs it would not restart to cut a third 8 footer - It required a new carb to fix which the dealer performed under warranty - I would love to hear what your thoughts - Cheers

Great video Steve. Both of my saws (MS230 and MS390) have the orange plug in place so I’m guessing it’s the oil line. Any videos on replacing the oil line would be helpful.

Oil caps and oil lines off the pump I have seen pretty often. I tried to find a plug at an industrial supply house and no go. Get the part from Stijl as I have also cracked the plastic around the plug. Your in good company Steve! Thanks for the video’s, always great. Mike OUT!

I got an 064 av stihl that leaks oil. Thought I'd store it on its side. Still leaks. The M3 threaded plug looks like it comes with some type of blue sealer goop on the threads. If its loctite, would be a good idea to dip a couple q-tips in alcohol and clean the female threads so it seals properly. I ran into that issue with loctite in the past where it wont work if threads are oily. Enjoyed the video! I love a beer called grainbelt nordeast! Nector of the gods! 🍺🍺😆

Once again Steve to the rescue.... Watched my buddy pull out his ms170 from its case 2 days ago and the case was swimming in oil and the saw was horrendously soaked in oil... he just wiped it off and put some oil in it and went about his business... When i asked him what the hell is wrong he just said its been leaking for 15 years and still works so meh... i couldn't believe it... My chainsaws are SPOTLESS. I use them hard when i use them but they are gleaming before they go back to their storage cases. So i just happened upon this video and voila! I shall be fixing his MS170 tomorow! If I'm ever out in BC im taking Steve out for steak and beers...
