ms250

Hi, I know that's a dumb question in the sense that I should just run it with the proper part. But I have ordered one and am waiting for it to arrive, and am wondering what would happen if I tried to run the saw without it? I know the idea is to let air in and not out, but I thought that would...

Heya folks, Got this used ms250 up and running, but still can’t get it in good working condition. Bought it a new bar and chain and using stihl oil to rule out those variables. I’m certain my chain isn’t too tight as I can pull it up enough to reveal the drive link. The chain, however, feels...

just bought an ms250 that came with an 18'' bar. would like to go to a 16'' bar. 18'' set up is .325 .063 with 68 drive links. can I just swap a 16'' bar with .325 .063 with 62 drive links or do I have to change the sprocket size/tooth count? cutting through a lot of oak tree tops on the...

I have a ms 250 with H&L adjustable carb that is low on compression. 90 psi. Pulled muffler and piston is scored. Complete saw needs a new home! Looking for $100 and half of shipping in lower 48. Make me an offer!

I have a 8 year old Stihl ms250. I just replaced the engine with a brand new OEM Stihl. Everything else was from the original 8 year old saw. Currently it is hard to pull. I have purchased additional plastic pawgs for the pull start because they are breaking when trying to start. If I remove the...

ITS OPEN BOX BUT NEVER USED This is a kit I got to fix a saw I had lying around. Just didn't have the time to fool with it. So I figure someone can use it. You can use it to convert your 021,023,ms210,or ms230 to 025/250 specs. Asking $50 shipped also comes with seals. I AM NOT A BUSINESS NOR...

Guys, if you been wanting a new small saw they just released this kit for 55$. Hard to believe! Shipping to me on the east coast of the US is $62.89. $118 even. So you get to have a little fun. Thats two kits in a month...

Howdy, Ive been ghosting this site for a few years but I cant seem to find a post regarding the problem im having, anyhow... I was running my 250 today to fell a 14 DBH Pin Oak and it started pouring smoke from the chain sprocket cover area. Oiler is working fine and it was ok on smaller bay...

I'm hoping some of the regulars here can help me out on this. I have searched the forums, and found some good info, but not the exact thing I'm questioning. I purchased a MS250 from a flea market, which turned out to be a MS210C. The saw had been run without chain lubricant for quite some...

I see lots of threads for all the Hutzl/Farmertec saws, but I haven't seen anyone put together a complete Ms 250. Anyone have any experience with the Chinese Cylinder? I did see a nice meteor nikasil set for $130 though :) I priced one today $150-175, but that changes from time to time and...

I just picked up a ms 250 with and 18 in bar .325 pitch .063 gauge, what is the best bar to go with? I was looking to get a 20 inch bar and chain. is that to much for the saw?

I have a stock MS250, and I was thinking about running it on vertical mount mini mill to square off some cants out of 14"-16" diameter trees. I know its under powered right , and I am definitely modding the muffler, but what do you guys think I would gain anything by doing a PICCO conversion...

First off, I want to ask 2 questions: which saw/brand. AND can I use the same 20 inch chains I use on my MS 661?? I just got finished doing 3 weeks of mission clean up work after the tornadoes that hit Mississippi on Dec 23. I have a MS 661, which I Love. It cuts through anything, as long as I...
