Wish it was mine!😊I'm already in trouble, drug home a bunch more saws today🤪

@@KainKustomGarage perfect lol

Thank you my Friend, yes great little saw, wish there was a source for the oiler diaphragm for sure....appreciate you Brother!😁

Hey, stupid question, can that diaphragm be replaced with one from something else or can you make one out of a piece of rubber or silicone? I haven't looked at a schematic or the actual part, just spitballing. Another option is a thin coat of E6000 over the cracked rubber- I used some on a little craftsman saw that the fuel line just stuck through a hole into the tank where it leaked. The E6000 seems to be fuel resistant so far so I'm sure bar oil wouldn't affect it. I patched a silver dollar sized hole in the sidewall of a quad tire (I used safety wire to stitch the hole shut first) with a layer of E6000 on both sides of the wall and it held air better than the intact tire. I rode on it for years, it's pretty durable

@@chrisrageNJ I have seen similar diaphragm in pulse carburetors. With a retaining clip. Anything is possible I guess. The part is now available aftermarket. It was an option I was considering. I'm just going through my father's tools one at a time and restoring them. To original as clean as possible. I've just finished a restoration on my grandfather's McCulloch D30. Luckily he had a heap of spares. Managed to get the paint scanned and matched perfectly 👌

@northcanterburylogging3039 that's pretty cool, I'm doing much of the same

Thanks Doug! Good little saws!😊

Awesome man, glad it helped!😉

Thanks Darrell!😉

Thanks man, Yeah they pop up around here once in a while, its crazy how timeless they are, considering its almost 40 years old....😊

Awesome Brother 😊

Good luck my friend!😁

Yeah, that's usually what I do but she was being stubborn...lol

Hmmm.....I think He may keep up withMr Stihl!😊

Would be a fun comparison .@@KainKustomGarage

😉

Sorry Jasper, I'll try to get it on the next one...thanks buddy!😊

I know right, She's a little Honey! Weather is definitely getting warmer!😊

Thanks Ricardo!😉

Hope it helps Sir!😊

​@KainKustomGarage I just went through both of my 011s, I have an 011AV and an 011AVT, one dated 1979 on the air filter lid and one dated 1985. The older dated one is like the one you are working on in the video (the '85 has a slightly different handle layout), and I got one running and cutting after watching your video. I got all the parts online for cheap but I'm not impressed with the quality so it's just good thing I have 3 extra now. The saw I have like yours has a walboro(?) carb so I have to get a different kit but all the fuel and vent lines are changed and I had it running under full throttle. I came back to your video to look again before I tackle it tomorrow but I think I just need to purge the lines. Thanks again, great video

Aww man, that sucks....keep at it brother!😊

Nice Ted!😉

I know right! tryin to keep it real!😉

Ahh hell yeah Brother!😊

Hello, Thanks for the kind words Sir, some saws have a pin that the 2 ends line up with, if not I would say locate the gap where there is no intake or exhaust opening....never had the piston out of one....hope it helps 😊

@@KainKustomGarage you're welcome. I've not seen it before either. All the roller bearings are only held in by friction by the con-rod, which all fall into the crankcase when you pull the cylinder 🫣there is a video of piston replacement on here. I'll find the link and send it over. Wierd setup🤣

Thanks again for your reply. It's all back together. Here's the link I was telling you about.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NntzSRN2T5E.htmlsi=3LPOOXs1YHdIcOgG

Thanks Marcus, I hate working on dirty stuff!😉👍👍

Nice, it will run but you'll have to choke it to shut off....lol

@@KainKustomGarage thanks

Sorry man, maybe She needs a carb kit?😉

@@KainKustomGarage More than likely, yes. The ignition is funny too..

You’re welcome 😊

Hi, yeah they are a little tricky, honestly can't remember🤔

Great little saws, hard to find the diaphragm for the oiler though...probably 100-250 bucks depending on condition...😊

Hi, the wire is connected to the actual push button and when it moves forward it grounds it to the saw case....😊

@@KainKustomGarage I don"t see any wire, that is why I asked. Is there any wire hidden inside or behind the case?

Hey Marcus, The only place I've been able to find stuff is on Ebay, I'm still looking for an oil pump diaphragm for this one as well....🤔

@@KainKustomGarage had a long talk with an Oregon technical advisor this morning. Oregon used to make a spur sprocket for the Stihl 011: Oregon#28016X. this part replaced the OEM 7 tooth Stihl sprocket with one that had but 6 teeth. regretably Oregon discontinued this issue, but the Oregon tech went on to give me the phone no. of a saw shop in Iowa that still deals with old inventory. called Frawley's Saw Shop and talked with a gentleman just as helpful as the tech at Oregon. didn't get it cheap, but got it reasonable compared to some of the gouge artists on Ebay. 24.99USD w/ free shipping. had to return a spur sprocket to an Amazon dealer just recently. that aftermarket 7 tooth spur was a quarter inch plus smaller in diameter than original. that woulda seriously affected chain pitch and coupled with the fact that the metal did not look hardened woulda tore that sprocket up. keep doin what you're doin on your channel. always enjoyable

Nice Tony!😊

Thanks George, She was a low hour Machine for sure!😊

Not sure Tony, it was some left overs from another kit, you can get them on ebay pretty readily though if you search that model...😊

Sorry man, probably could have done that. The oil pump diaphragm on those is very hard to find, as I have another that needs one...otherwise a pretty straightforward setup...😊

Good luck with them Brother!
