Another Stihl question

[johnb]

Hey guy's got a question about impulse hoses. I have replaced a number of hoses lately and found some original equipment with clips on the cylinder side of the hose. Some of the clips were plastic and others were like a metal "c" clip. Non of the replacement hoses have clips. Most seem to fit snug but one 030av makes a little curve placing side force on the hose. Should I look for a clip or a aftermarket method of securing these hoses? All of the saws run great after the hoses were replaced. But I'm concerned the viberation of use will work them off. Thanks the Hoosier!

Try using a small nylon wire tie, if you're worried about a hose coming off.
