It worked beautifully thank you.

Get rid of the screen

I bought an ms170 second hand and it is stopping after I let off the trigger. I took this apart and there is no screen at all! Could this be the problem?

I was thinking 🤔 I would try this on my bow. I was wondering how it would work, and now I know. Thanks for testing this method for us 👍 👌

How I clean the cap is when the fire is out remove cap and clean with wire brushe and a stick . very easy bang the chimney a bit ,or run the chimney brush on flex pole down a couple of times , Heating with wood for over 45yrs still doing it today , plenty of wood on my property

God bless you. I was at my wits end too then found this. Thank you!

An old man in Montana showed me that if you burn a russet potato once a week the chemicals in the potato dry out the creosote and it flakes off and falls into the fire box. I used this method for a month and reinspected and sure enough my stove pipe was cleaned out. It actually works really good.

Im wondering if you could help me out? We have a wood cook stove we had installed at thanksgiving time of this year. It is normal when the fire is not hot to have smoke puff out the seams of the smoke pipe? Its been in the 50s this week in Michigan and smoke is puffing out the pipe seams when we attempt to light it

That is not unburnt powder it graphite. It used for stability and storage.

how do you operate the safety. This is the second crossbow i have had to get as the first would not load. But both 370 i picked up the safety does not work. So how does it work???

It looks like thats whats wrong with mine, would that be why smoke was coming out of the dampers and pouring out when I opened the door?

Im getting ready to unbox my 12 Ton BLT Manuel and you made it so easy to understand from unboxing to splitting and everything inbetween..I'll split the cuts tomorrow from the Old Oak tree that got hit by lightening on the BLT and let them season for a year...thanks for the tip on saving those xtra cuts just in case they're too short...Adois Amigo.

Great video. I’ve been losing power for a long time. Checked the usuals, spark plug, sharpened chain and played with carby settings. Pulled this off and had same issues. Clean and running like new. Thanks for the lesson

I was also at my wits' end, until I found this video. Thanks so much for sharing.

Absolutely fixed a run for 10 min then shuts off problem. Tks

Great video - no annoying "music", clear concise narrative, and a gentleman who wants to inform rather than "star" in a small screen production. Thank you sir, 10 minutes after watching your video I had a saw with power again. The only change I made was to use Super DeGooper to clean the screen - it worked great, got it completely cleaned to original with the help of an old toothbrush.

The crossbow went together quickly and the general fit and finish is a bit above what I expected for the price. czcams.com/users/postUgkx5B43Qabqt1HedUJyfEqxiwBCfaooIH52 The adjustable stock is a little loose. I had an issue when I tried to cock the bow for the first time with the safety on. The string set in the trap box, held just enough to build up enough tension to rip the string out of my hands when it let go. No significant damage was done, and once I got it sighted in, I wrecked a couple bolts by sending one straight down the shaft of the first. I'm holding ~2" groups at around 50 yards, and I'm not an expert by any means. Best part is that they supply all the replacements parts you may ever need

I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle czcams.com/users/postUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.

I'm happy to see someone not punching holes on their baffle plate and throwing out their spark arrestor. Actually it's good to buy a new screen every couple of years. If the holes in the screen get too big it won't do its job and could start a fire. Forest service used to run around in the 70s with welding tip cleaners sized to check your spark arrestor screen. They would fine you or warn you if the screen was worn. Not having one in eastern Washington was a definite fine.

Anyone who doesnt understand this video the difference is simple. Pull the trigger slower until you get a better feel for accuracy. Pull too fast you jerk the gun and mess up your aim till you get use to it. The speed comes later.

Awesome

Looks to cold for me..they should of called it cold montana

I found it easier to load it by pointing the barrel down and sorta balancing the pellet on my fingertip.

Put the screen on hot coals of a fire for a minute then brush it off. Clean as new.

Just what I needed, worked great thank you!!

I bought a brand new one that had leaked a lot of it's oil before I even took it out of the box.

i wonder if this is why my 2200 with only 100 hours on it is running pretty bad now. i guess i’ll have to check it out and clean this filter more frequently if that’s the case.

Care in the community really does not work , what is the purpose of this ?

The first thing I do is remove these screens from any gas powered engine that has one.

You must have replaced the very short green (ground) wire with a much longer green wire & not said anything about it.

I take those screens out and throw them in the trash.

Well thank you very much!! I had the carb off twice and cleaned but didn't make any difference, then checked the compression, it was 150 lbs. Then I googled it and your video came up first. I cleaned my screen with a fine wire wheel on my bench grinder. What a difference 😁. It's funny how quick it started loosing power. I always use fresh premium fuel and only Stihl 2 stroke oil. My saw is about 12 years old and I was about to go get a new one. I guess I'll cancel the new carb I ordered. Thank you again.

i use a blow torch ... it burns the soot off the spark arrester in literally 30 seconds... and it's fum too...grin

It works but it looks like shit.

I run these bad boys all year long 7 days a week. absolutely beasts

this is the most common issue with this gen and most others.

Thank you. Lots of people open it, but don't show how to put a pellet in. I didn't find it hard putting a pellet in but cocking it was a different matter. Ouch.

Does this beast have a serial number?

Great idea! Nice use of simple supply’s to get the job done 👍

So glad I found this video this is exactly what I needed. I used mineral spirits instead of Acetone and the carbon came off very easily

Every video about Garrett Montana sounds like a 5-year-old banging on a piano.

Perfect fix for my saw… thanks.. really helped!

Very nice 👍

Thanksman

Working on one now didn't even have a screen in there someone must have removed it but it bogs down at throttle I'm going to try to take the Jets out and clean it I clean the carburetor already but it didn't do any good

Terima kasih bapak

you are the best

Thanks! I'll try this. I have two dinged chains. Hit a rock with one and ran out of chain oil for the other.

Hey buddy thanks for the video

take a torch to that screen!
