My name is Bre. I took two years of small engine repair at the local college. When I left school, I fell into a wonderful job at a local small engine shop where I worked the counter for a couple years. In 2010 my husband and I opened up our own small engine shop in central Arkansas where I am able to work alongside my family and best friends. We see over 2,000 pieces of small engine equipment every year, and answer 1,000's of small engine questions. We specialize in brands such as Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Echo and Shindaiwa, but work everyday on MANY other brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, Honda, Craftsman, Remington, Red Max, Troy Bilt, Scag, Bad Boy, Hustler, World Lawn, Poulan, Mantis, Etc.. Hopefully, my experience I share, will save you Time, Money and Frustration in the future!

Great video. I’ve built a lot of the clone saws for a customer that loves the things. They can be good saws but there is a lot more chasing down little things that don’t have to be done with the name brands. One thing that I’ve always had issues with is the tank vent. The china tank vents close off and will not vent and fill a crankcase full of gas. I usually switch them out for OEM Stihl vents and all is good. Happy wrenching.

Carried it to the local dealer and he tried to sell me a new unit. Got on you tube and learned the 4- strokes have a history of issues with valve adjustment and cam gear separation. One unit (FS 110 only required a valve adjustment, however, the other I had to replace the cam gear. The molded metal cover that cover the fly weight and spring had separated. Now they both run like new. By the way, I found a new (awesome)dealer who told me the truth. He said with proper maintenance these engines are bullet proof.

If it happens anymore, check the fuel tank vent. If it plugs to where it won't allow pressure to escape tank, the pressure in the tank will push the fuel to the point of stretching diaphragm and flood saw super easy. If it plugs not allowing air into the tank it will starve for fuel. the tank has to vent both directions, in and out.

@throttlebottle5906 9 месяцев назад

saws, weed eaters and other devices meant to run at all angles do not allow venting out of the cap, they in fact have a one way rubber check valve built into the cap and carburetors are designed to hold back any fuel pressure that occurs, without allowing any leakage. I've seen them blow lines off, blow the cap apart and split the tanks before, all without carburetor leaking anything and being useable afterwards.

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

At first I thought the metering lever was installed backwards because the needle valve end also has a notch to capture the needle valve. But I doubt the saw would even run in the reversed position. And this is the first carb I have seen where the metering diaphragm pin is captured by the metering lever. I would really like to know what brand carb this is. Cheers

To be honest! Repaired products are oftentimes more reliable than the new out of the box. Plus, you know it's in operational condition.

I did install a paper air filter conversion kit upgrade and you have to run it at 32:1 so it smokes. Chains for it are soft and crappy but they are like $8-10.

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

The Chinese generally don't have quality control. They play the odds. If 20% fail after 1 year, the consumer either has it repaired or junks the equipment. If they go buy a new one China wins again. If a new one fails out of the box, the big box stores just write it off. China wins.

@kknows3512 10 месяцев назад

When the choke is flipped closed while the engine is running anything above an idle, it creates a large vacuum. More than enough to dislodge the diaphragm from the needle lever. So the fact that the kill wire was disconnected explains the malfunction. Stihl chainsaws from way back in the 70's and 80's with Tillotson carbs were known for this, and I used to carry a spare carb kit or diaphragm in my pack when cutting logs. But usually it worked ok to just put it back together. When working as a cutter on the west coast back then we seldom shut the saw off, just kept going until it ran out of gas. Fewer troubles that way.

@Chickanic 10 месяцев назад

Interesting! Thanks for the information!

@daleholmes4355 10 месяцев назад

Just a thought, I saw on Steve's Small engine saloon that they make a spiral diaphragm. Would that have worked on this soft or not?

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

Agree with leaving the saw running. Restarting a warm saw can be tricky. Choke it? Half choke? No choke? You have to find the sweet spot. Every saw is different. And btw- Stihl carbs are all now made in Shenzhen, China. They had a manufacturing plant built there in 2017 or 2018.

I think you might have one of those situations on this repair. What you think? Greetings from Sunny South Carolina.

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

Agree 100%. When a customer brings me their equipment I ask so many questions that I am probably annoying. But it often reveals important information, like a DIY attempt. So I never assume parts are in the correct places. Then if it's a no start problem I have them try to start it while I watch carefully. Often times they are doing something wrong. And these tiny engines can flood easily so you have to figure out just when to apply and release the choke.

I bought Holzfforma G660, I have 5 other saws, Stihl & Husqvarna, but they we’re taking forever to cut through these 4-5 foot rounds I was cutting short enough to split with my splitter, I’m very happily suprised, I wanted it for that job I had & that was it, now I use it all the time no problems, I got way more than the $300 I paid out of it

I purchased a Neotec 872 but had the ability to take it apart and fix what was not right and then did my own port job on it. The starter rewind failed after 2 starts. The chain oiler was not working. The channel from the tank to pump was clogged with assembly debris. Fixed all that and obtained OEM flip caps and decomp valve and modified the chain adjuster to better tighten the bar. A custom base gasket with .020” squish. A second exhaust port on the muffler. Using Schaeffer’s Supreme 7000 tc-w3 Efree gasoline 32:1. This thing just absolutely performs with authority. Lots of torque. I understand this company continues to improve the quality of the product so units purchased today may be much better than when first released. I know any professional user of a Stihl chainsaw only receives a 3 month warranty with it. FWIW. Great video! Enjoyed.👍

@AdministrativeReload 10 месяцев назад

I have a Farmertec...similar chinese Stihl clone. It works for occasional use, but you should know how to work on them because a lot more stuff will break than on a genuine stihl. The good news is that you can use real Stihl parts as replacements and eventually have a more reliable saw.

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

Unfortunately, the Stihl saws (at least the MS series) are now made with mostly Chinese parts. Not sure if the entire saw is made in China. This may be why more people are buying the less expensive Stihl knockoff. Why pay for the Stihl name when the parts are Chinese?

@shannonwhitaker9630 7 месяцев назад

You are right ! These NeoTec/FarmMac saws are made entirely in Taiwan whereas Stihl saws can and do have Chinese made parts. Meanwhile Stihl has been laying off US workers. Everything is so twisted these days and people can’t take 15 minutes to concentrate, read and research anything. I can buy 4 Neotec/FarmMac 872’s/380’s with 24” Bars for the price of ONE similar size “Pro” MS series Stihl with Chi-Com parts.

@Skinnymoose 4 месяца назад

@steadyeddie7453 Apparently, even though some Sthil parts are made in China, the quality control is much better. If it wasn't their saws, would be the same POS as the clones are.You really do get what you pay for. Additionally, the clones have a resale value of zero as well as no pride of ownership whatsoever. Not to mention they aren't reliable and can't be trusted to last or not go tits up when you need them the most..If you have the money to blow and want to play around with these things fine, but if money is tight and you need one good saw this aint it. Save up and buy a Husky, Stihl or an Echo. It would be foolish to blow your hard earned money on junk.

@libertyforever836 9 месяцев назад

I have to mention this. Back in 1989. I bought an echo CS 500 VL chainsaw used. I don’t know how old it was when I bought it but it ran good and that’s all I cared about. I had never owned an echo outdoor equipment anything before. This thing just won’t quit running. All I’ve ever done to it is changed bars and chains when they are worn out and I’ve always run real good gas through it and the air filter has always been cleaned. I swear I have use this thing over and over and over again as I burn wood and have burned wood for years. I recently got it out because I haven’t used it in several years. I dumped the gas out of it and put fresh gas in it, and it started on the third pull. What is it with this old chainsaw? It just won’t quit running. I love this thing I will never trade it for a new one no matter what. As far as I’m concerned, Echo makes the best chainsaw on the market. I can’t even imagine something lasting this long that was purchased today new.

@johndoe3johndoe382 10 месяцев назад

One thing I've learned, especially with saws, you get what you pay for. If you buy an off brand or cheap big box store saw, 7 out of 10 you're going to get a pos out of the box, if you get one that works, as soon as you start putting a few hours on it, things go down hill quick and after a couple years you usually end up with a pos. You're better off saving up and just going to a Stihl or Husqvarna dealership and buying a good saw. Even if you plan on using the saw only occasionally, in my opinion, you're still better off.

@juhajuntunen7866 10 месяцев назад

I agree, I once buy chinese Husqvarna copy as sparesaw if need second saw. it runs but rews are slow so cutting speed too. After one year, all gas pipes were rotten to pieces. I replace them with generic hose but I dont trust that saw, pos, but it cost only 79 euro (85 USD).

@stewartwilson5560 10 месяцев назад

I agree with you 100 percent you get what you pay for.

@steadyeddie7453 10 месяцев назад

The Chinese have no quality control. They play the odds. My local Stihl dealer has nightmare stories about new saws that won't start. Come to find out the carbs are missing pieces. Again, Stihl carbs are made in Shenzhen, China, no quality control. So the knockoffs are disposable. They might get you through the warranty. If they don't and you take it back, the big box store just writes it off. China wins. If it's out of warranty, you go buy another brand, probably also Chinese. China wins again. Our U.S. $$ are supporting China's economy. But Stihl and Husq make it hard to buy their more expensive equipment when many of their parts are also made in China.

@johndoe3johndoe382 10 месяцев назад

@@steadyeddie7453 damn I thought Stihl saws were supposed to be either made in USA or made in Germany. I don't doubt they use some Chinese parts, the tag will say "MADE IN USA, with foreign and domestic components" in smaller writing. Only time will tell, you will know soon enough when you start putting hours on it. If it's cheap made, it won't hold up for long!

@shannonwhitaker9630 7 месяцев назад

The hell of it all is the saw in this video is made in Taiwan not mainland China. Last time I checked we were friends with Taiwan. NeoTec/Farmmac is trying to up the Clone game with better saws apparently. Check out the FarmMac F380. Meanwhile Stihl is increasingly using parts produced in China while reducing or laying off the US workforce.

My rule of thumb has been if you have to spend more than half of what the thing costs new for a repair, then scrap it! The second time it comes in, do not spend more than 25% on what the new item cost. Unless it is easy to repair and most likely if you are a DIYer. After this repair, how much total will your client have spent? What does a new one cost? There you have you answer.

@danielmildbrand6614 10 месяцев назад

I’ve been serious in the chainsaw game for a while now and my opinion is: Chinese clone saws are an awesome value IF you know how to rebuild and fix chainsaws. With the clones you have the potential to get a saw comparable with an OEM saw for 1/3 to 1/4 of the price. However, they usually need some tuning at a minimum and many times they will need a seal replaced or some carb parts or a new coil. But in my opinion they are great bargains with just a few OEM parts or some tuning.

@kennethpruitt8534 10 месяцев назад

Call it what it is, an inexpensive chainsaw. I've got a Stihl 181 and a very nice 032. A while ago a very large pine tree fell on an almost as large oak tree and blocked my road. Way beyond the ability of the 181 I broke out the 032 and got to work. After about 3 tanks of gas the coil on the 032 gave out which for a 70s saw didn't really surprise me. What did surprise me was the dealer wanted $290.00 for the coil alone! Yikes!! If memory serves me, I paid about the same money to buy the whole saw in 1977. The trees were 40" across so I needed a large cheap saw. I went to the used market and found mostly junk and folks who wanted almost new prices for well-worn but serviceable saws. Amazon to the rescue and I decided to buy a Holtzforma MS660 which is a Stihl clone from China. I'm not going to wax poetic about great a saw it is because in reality it is only adequate. With enough pulls and holding your mouth just right it always starts. It's heavy, poorly balanced with a 36" bar, and, while it may be a clone the parts used that you touch spell CHEAP. Still, it finished the job and has done a couple of others since. If you take the Chinese clone saw for what it is and not what they want you to believe (a Stihl for less money), then I think you will be fine. If dealing with China causes you heartburn, I understand. I wish I could get my 032 running again without paying the cost of a new saw to do so. If I could I never would have paid $372.14 for the Holtzforma with a 36" bar and chain.
