Excellent video. And thank you for sharing that the HO pump piston is the part from the 461. I just replaced the pump piston on my 441 but now realize I was sent the correct control bolt but the pump piston was exactly the same as my old one even though it came in a paper packet with the right part number on it. Got ripped off. But at least now I know what to look for and what to order. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Well done.
Excellent video. Very informative. I've never been that far into a saw. I agree more oil on the bar and chain is better, the oil doesn't do any good in the jug. 👍🏻
Super informative video Rod !! I hadn’t seen anyone do this procedure before, most just swap out the oiler from a 461 - complete. I like the way you did it 👍 Great camera work too ⛓🪚👍👏🇺🇸 Rick
Nice one! My lil ms 250 is a different much simpler design. I learned a lot taking it apart many times trying to fix my mistakes knock off parts and silly mistakes. Learned a lot and in the end it was fun learning. Oem in my case was much better. Satisfying fix. Sounds like a great upgrade! Have a great day!
Thanks Stan! Can’t go wrong with OEM. Still haven’t ran it since the upgrade but it should good to go now. Gonna do I little cutting here in a couple days. Appreciate ya watching!👍🏻
Hey Rod , very nice video . A lot of great info . I also usually put a new e clip in my stuff because I launch them into never never land when I am removing them . I like my oil to run out at the same time as my fuel . Have a good one my friend !!! 👍🏻🇺🇸
I launched one the other day . Thank god for editing . I believe RU-vid would have banned me for life . I wish you were going to be at the Bunyan show but I understand . Have you found a garden tractor yet ?
FWIW, IMO the stock MS400 didn't oil a 25" bar very well. I replaced the stock oil pump with a holzforma import. That cheap arse pump works like the original should have!! Regardless, I'll order the Stihl HO parts and rebuild the original. It's a shame Stihl doesn't put the HO pump on the mighty MS400.
HAY ROD, COOL D.I.Y. VIDEO... I JUST REPLACED THE CHAIN ON ONE OF MY SAWS TODAY' THE FOLKS DOIN' THE CABINS USE THE F*** OUT OF IT. THE BLADES WERE SO WORN, THAT THEY WERE ALMOST NON-EXISTENT. DID YOU GET THE PICTURES??? IF NOT, I'LL SEND THEM AGAIN. OR BETTER YET, I'LL TAKE SOME NEW ONES... STAY COOL BROTHER... PEACE...
