Really good! With your video I was able to do total maintenance on my 211.
Thank you🤝
Great skills. Of course, you polished the bar! Great video!
Thank you. I think polishing the bar improved the final looks otherwise it would have annoyed me or I would have ended up buying a new one as I am a bit of a ocd lol
Love the full polish.
Thanks for taking your time to leave a comment Mark. Yes, the full polish turned out to be a very good and cheap way to finish the badly scratched bar. I was very happy with the result. Thanks for watching buddy
Well done. Good work. Unbelievable what you can do with the correct know how..
Thank you Stephen. Thanks for watching and for your support mate. Much appreciated🤝
Gracias amigo muy buen video saludos
De nada, un placer. 🤝
Picked one up in auction myself, and since it runs good enough and after seeing part 1/2 completely I realise I don't have the tools to do the motor overhaul & set them myself, guess outside cleaning will have to do.
Granted mine is not missing any covers and seems to have been well maintained.
Hats off on going all in with what you bought lol
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you got one yourself. They are good saws and have decent power to weight ratio. It was a big job to restore mine but worth in the end especially for the price. Glad you liked the video🤝
Looking forward the carburetor setting video. They've always baffled me how to set them Correctly. Great work
Thanks Very much for watching and for your appreciation. It is fiddly but not difficult. I will do it when I get a chance as it will be a useful thing to know for every chainsaw owner🤝
@@TheKeenMechanic hey this week i Mangaged to restorate two Old chainsaws i found in our Garage. A poulan and a Grizzly. Both Not the Best saws but with your video it was fun to get Them back to Life! The only Problem is that they keep on having issues with the carburator...
When are you planing to make the Video on how to set the carburator? It would be a huge help! 👍
@@felixx1500 Hi Felix I am so happy to hear that you found my chainsaw video helpful. It makes my day to hear that that people are learning from my experience and are putting it to good use. Not sure when I will get a chance to do the carburetor video as I am currently working on other projects and we have a baby on the way so spare time is very limited. As soon as I get a chance I will make one and upload it. Sorry I can't be more specific🤝
Good job mate
Thank you for taking your time to leave a comment. Much appreciated and I hope you enjoyed it. I had loads of fun bringing this bad boy to life.🤝
I don't know stihl beer exist.... Excellent restoration!
It does exist in my house 😁. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
Thankyou so much for doing g this video and the other one. I've just rebuilt a chainsaw from 2 knackered ones just from watching your videos.
I had the pleasure of having to drill the heads off 3 out of 4 engine mount screws too 😫
Mate, I can't thank you enough 🙏
No problem at all buddy. Glad you like it. Always nice to hear that people enjoy my content🤝🔧🔩
@@TheKeenMechanic the one chainsaw had a knackered engine, and the other one leaked bar oil from under the chain tensioner somewhere. There must be a crack in the chassis because when I removed the tensioner bar oil flowed from the oil port, but when I reinstalled the tensioner there was as much oil coming from under the tensioner as there was the oil port ! Lol .
Thanks man👍👍
@@matthewbishop9342 Yes, check for cracks. The cheaper saw bodies are made of plastic. The forestry saw bodies are made from Magnesium as they take more abuse and don't crack as easily as the plastic ones. Best of luck with your repairs
@@TheKeenMechanic I never knew that about plastic and magnesium chassis.
I'm off to a forestry show next weekend, I'll keep a look out for one.
@@matthewbishop9342 I have an MS261 and can highly recommend it to you. Very good power to weight ratio🤝
Great vids and well done!. Thanks. Cheers, nothing wrong with a good brew in a nice glas :-)
Cherrs bud. Nice to see people appreciating my special stihl beer lol
Love that 11:13
What is that at 11:13?🤔
really nice job i just repaired a ms211 with only 25psi on compression the main dealers told him it was scrap, im at the moment restoring a old sthil 009
Thanks mate. The main dealer guys don't want to spend a lot of time doing what we do, they just want to sell you a new one or quickly repair your old one for a quick profit. Thanks for your comment and for watching my video. I have just subscribed to your channel as a thank you and will keep an eye on your videos. Will be nice to see the 009 when finished😉🤝
Where can I find cheaper replacement parts?
Ebay
Garden hire spares
Or L&S Engines
funky intro :))
Thank you. Something different😁
Awesome video. It's just not fair that you have these skills, while I have none. It's like you took my share. :-(
Thanks for your lovely comment. Much appreciated
Well done Keen, Nice music too.
Thanks Keith. Glad you enjoyed it🤝
did you replace the piston rings? what did you do to the cylinder to regain compression?
Hi
Everything I did was shown in the video exactly as I did it. I used the old piston rings. The one thing I guess that helped to restore the compression was to re-seal the engine sump. I didn't even replace the crankshaft seals. Just cleaned everything well and re-sealed. I guess I was lucky, but I wanted to see if it was possible to do it withing my £50 budget. Thanks for your comment
Hello po. San po kayo umorder ng ganyang chain saw
Ebay
I didn't see you put a gasket between cylinder and muffler. I was watching to see whether it should be between cylinder and shield, or shield and muffler.
Hi
Please check at 14:24 where I show how to install it. Thanks for your message
@@TheKeenMechanic Thanks for replying. I slowed it down to 25%.......
Glad you got sorted. Thanks
Saan po kayo bumili ng parts ng stihl?
Google lang ang kailangan Hindi ako isang dealer ng stihl. Salamat
A commercial grade pressurewasher can damage the rubber on the handle /and/ the plastic pieces. Don't ask me how I kno😂
Hi. Thanks for watching and for taking your time to leave me a comment. I hope you enjoyed the video. Fortunately there was no damage at all to my saw and I gave it a real good blast. I am very happy with the saw after the restoration and I have been using it more than my MS261 as it is much lighter for small trees around the property
35 cm or 40 cm bar 1.1 or 1.3 ???
Hi Bogdan
16" /40cm bar and 1.3mm
1.1 are only the small 12"/ 30cm bars as far as I am aware
@@TheKeenMechanic 👍
@@antochibogdan7090 I was nicely surprised as to how well it cuts this little MS211. Not a bad saw at all, especially for under £50
de 10.
Hi and thank you for your comment. What does "de 10" mean?
@@TheKeenMechanic it means excellent!
Thank you very much. It means a lot to hear this. Where are you from buddy?
@@TheKeenMechanic for sure is romanian :) ... In Romania "de 10" is like the highest grade in school. Nice work, I've enjoyed your video. My self just finished one project... Stihl 028AV ... don't know exactly what year but on the starter cover is writed "Made in West Germany", right now I'm working at one new project... Stihl 010av... looking for some parts like piston, rings and cylinder head.
@@EugenMoisa Glad you liked the video. It is a great feeling when you restore something and give it 2nd life. The older models seem to last forever. Very well built
