- This Stihl 031 AV saw was my dad's and hasn't been run in about 5 years. It is about a 1974 model and has been a family staple for firewood and clearing for many years. We clean the carb and get it running then cut some firewood.
Great too see the saw running and remember the good times
Absolutely!
I bought an old Stihl 041 AV Super not long ago. It's heavy, but I prefer the deeper sound of the slower engine to the whine of new saws.
Thank for watching and commenting. Absolutely, that was the first thing I noticed when running that 031. Those old saws are so cool and honestly built to last as well! Thanks again have a great day and be safe!
I agree they are great Saw's build to last. Take care be safe and well.
Good video and job. It's hard to believe you didn't have to put in a carb kit. My dad got a 41 av new in the mid 70 s they are real Saw's the bar oiler on his will not work and they stopped making oiler for them. But it runs great. I have a 28 super and 46 and they are good Saw's. Have a 360 pro hate it. Hated the 230 ms easy start traded it for a echo 400 it ls a much better better saw. That wood makes nice lumber if you can find one that's has any size. Take care be safe and well.
Thanks! I was very impressed that saw got running so easily. I have never tried milling sassafras but there are some larger ones on the property. Our cabin property when I was growing up was loaded with them. If you opened the ground at all you thought you were in a root-beer shop. Have a great day and be safe!
WHAT was that guy with the flat file doing? Guessing at the raker height?
Thanks for watching and your comment. That isn’t a flat file, it is a round file in a file guide. I honestly couldn’t tell you what or how he does what he does, only that when he is done, she will cut! Have a great day and be safe!
