028

Hello i have a 028 that i finally got to spark on. Now i have a fuel delivery issue will run with the air cleaner soaked in two stroke or gas down the carb. Repaced impulse lines and fuel lines. next thing im getting tank vent. Any ideas to help me not chase a ghost issues.

I've had this saw on ebay, ran two complete auctions, and neither buyer has paid or even communicated. Both auctions landed at the 275ish mark. It is currently on my eBay for 250 obo before shipping. This is my own personal saw and I am the second owner. As far as I know, it's all oem. It's...

Hey everyone i pickup up this old 028 woodboss a couple months ago as a two saw deal. I got it and a ms180c basket case for 70 bucks. Me not knowing anything about older saws and it being in one piece decided to tackle it first. I found that I was having and intermittent spark issue as it would...

I just picked up a free 028 WB. Going to replace the AV bushings and I take boot. I would like to find a shop manual to down load and parts list. Is there any thing else I should look for or be aware of??

Looking for a new or usable Stihl 028 cylinder! May be interested in piston kit along with cylinder if someone has everything!

Pardon me if i ramble a bit. I'm a city guy just moved into an off the grid cabin tucked away in the app. mtns. Picked up my first chainsaw this year from a friend. A ms170. Pulled the carburator and replaced it and off I went. Well, my next door neighbor (well next valley over) is a little...

Putting this out there to see the interest in this series of saws? I will diffinately get pictures up if there is.

Hello to all from Bulgaria. I'm new here. I am a mechanic by trade and have "retired" to Bulgaria 3 years ago at age 36 where I live off grid and do my own thing. If there is anything I can advise on, feel free to ask. Over that time I had accumulated a few saws. I have a 028 avs wood boss...

Where does the da... rn thing go? Seriously. Seriously asking this question right now.

Sorry if this has been covered already. I have a 028 with the SEM coil and I believe the coil is bad. I ordered the 000-400-1300 which should work from what I've read on here. Do I need to turn the flywheel to the Bosch keyway or leave it on SEM?

Hello, I need at least a brake band or a whole brake set with clutch for an 028AV stihl saw. Paypal ready, must ship to Canada. Thanks!

I've been searching the forum all morning and found a huge amount of really useful information, but so far no answer to the question I came here looking for. Maybe someone can end my agony, haha. I was recently gifted a Stihl Wood Boss 028 AV that was leaking bar oil. So I tore it down and...

Have had this saw for awhile and have a lot of time into it but can’t seem to get it to run right. Have put new seals in it, meteor piston, carb kit, buffers, new chain tensioner, intake manifold, and some other smalls. Have a spare cylinder also and piston that I was told was oem but not sure...

I bought this used Stihl chainsaw. It has no tag so I am trying to identify it to buy some parts. I know the serial number doesn't do a lot of good (217301006) I emailed Stihl to see if they have a record of it. From the pics can you guys tell what make this is? Guy told me it was a 038 super...

A while back, a guy I go to church with gave me an 028 AV Woodboss EQ. He thought it was blown up for whatever reason. It was free and came with a STIHL hard case, so I didn't care. Turns out the plate under the carb diaphragm was completely full of sawdust. It came out like a biscuit. The...

The other day I saw my neighbor at church and long story, short....he dropped off a STIHL 028 Wood Boss AV with the "electronic quickstop" He claimed that his dad had it for years and then passed it on to him, he ran the guts out of it until it started "loosing power once it got hot." He also...

Bought it in a lot of junk Old school one (all metal) runs, but has trouble idling (see video) I don't own a compression tester and haven't cut any wood with it, but it feels like it has compression when pull starting (pretty difficult). Just a regular 028 (non-super or wood-boss). It oils but...

Hello to all chainsaw fixers. I am working on a Stihl 028av with 44mm piston When I disassembled it I found gaskets in there. So for that reason, I ordered some OEM replacements. I have read some threads in here about not using gaskets for reassembly, but instead just using the Dirko HT or...

I've got a STIHL 028 AV SUPER Wood Boss with electronic quick stop, that has a bad piston and cylinder. Apparently the 028 is one of the few STIHL models that haven't been duplicated by the Chinese, so a replacement P&C would run me upwards of about $90. I was about to trade it off or part it...

Hello folks, This is my first post, and it turns out it's a long one. I've been a member here for a while, but just lurking, reading, learning. Now I find I am in need of help... and HOPEFULLY a couple of service manuals. I was looking for the infamous "beg for manuals" thread with the...
