I'm in Australia and in the last year I've been given 4 of these 011 saws and then got 1 at my local rubbish disposal site. I have 3 of running so far.

[@leoramirez7583]

Great work I have an 009 just got it running works like new running AMSOIL pro fuel mix to help with preserving the saw

[@seanbryant5714]

Sweet. I just pulled one of them from junk yard last week when I was there. I was just "collecting it" but after this video I may get her running. A month ago I pulled a husky 365xp complete. Just needed a thorough cleaning and she is running great. The stuff ppl throw away.

Love these old, small Stihl saws. They have a sound all of their own. It’s to good to be parted out. It’s lasted 40 plus years with many more to go.

[@ClintsHobbiesDIY]

Cool old saws. I love bringing them back from the graveyard.

[@bodeine454]

I bought an old 015 AV and ordered a new plug for it, it also needs a new pull cord so in a day or two I'm gonna try to fire it up, it has very good compression.

Good work Greetings from Germany Peter

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

Nice. Just brought one home that I’m about to get into.

[@donmayberryjrsOPE]

Great video John! I love bringing those awesome 011's back from the dead. I repaired hundreds of them in my shop in the 80s! Yup I'm that old 😂

[@samharris9559]

I see you have one of them fancy coast flashlights that you have to whack to turn on

I see that Stevie ray Vaughan picture on the bench. My favorite guitarist right there

[@chrisseger6870]

Nice job! I had one and tried to tear it apart, broke EVERYTHING. Mostly cause I was young and impatient. Oop c.

[@tc3603]

Sounds sweet making good power as good as a new saw. Congrats

[@NothingButChainsaws]

Seriously just took apart a 009 model and ported it lol...

[@justinweaver8787]

Very nice lil saw sir love it!!

[@richardfuerst5286]

👍Great video John.

[@newagelumberjack]

This was awesome! What a badass little clean up. I'd run that little saw

[@unharmedboss]

John, you’re the reason I’m starting to collect and work on older saws. Just saw 2 of these on marketplace now I think im gonna pick them up. So far the only brand new saw I’ve bought is a poulan pro 5020 and i feel like it’s actually an underrated saw I’m not gonna lie I’d love to see what you could do to one of them

[@donmayberryjrsOPE]

Grab them! I think the 011 is the most underrated saw out there!!

[@unharmedboss]

@@donmayberryjrsOPE This was first time I seen one in action it seems like a nasty little bucker!! 😂

[@donmayberryjrsOPE]

@@unharmedboss you won't be bummed that's for sure!

[@dennisosullivan1837]

Thank you Brother. ...looking to rebuild 2 011s Ive had for years. Is there a kit that is still available for these older 011s? Thanks again 👍😜

[@lennie8098]

Where have you been, it's nice to see you again!

[@mattfleming86]

That looks like boat two stroke too lol.

[@aldoclausi3955]

That was a good entertainment video.

[@paulwilliams8871]

Nice video. Do you have the 200T bushing part number? i want to make that conversion on my 011 Thanks in advance.

[@jwhiteker1]

I can get one for $100 that needs carb work. Should I roll the dice?

[@Mtematiks]

Hi John. I am restoring a 260 from the trash, and I would like to ask something. It was seuzed, not badly, actually, the original cylinder is in very good shape... but there is an alluminum from the piston attached to the walls. Do you think I can remove thisby honing the cylinder DIY? Thanks man!

[@jackylsmith8138]

You can hone, lightly sand or depending on what coating the cylinder has some acid will dissolve the aluminum.

[@moto_man4344]

Hey John I just bought a 661c and a 500i. What are the must do mods for these saws be sides porting and timing advance.

[@markkohlman7075]

Good shit !

[@whatsyourname4115]

Off the subject but what is your opinion on the article package on the Stihl saws I know hand heaters but the thing I’m wondering about is the “carb heater”

[@tc3603]

Stihl is always worth fixing if it has compression. People don't understand the value of their throwaways.

[@two-strokeworkshop1154]

Port it and put nos on it 😂😂 I’m just kidding do what you want

[@johnburns4726]

I have a stihl 011 AVT it was my grandfather's, can you get it going for me, I have found all the parts on ebay😊

[@Living-The-Dream]

I’m restoring a 011 AVT now, trying to clean it all up. I can not get the handle off. The left side handle screw cam right out. The right hand side turns and turns but will not come out. Is there some special way to remove, or a certain order to remove screws to get it apart? HELP, Please ??????
