They was a dollar on the table. That door will reopen. That wanted you to act hurt and scared to deter other people. If anyone needs a part and can not figure it out speak up. You will not do without because you stood up for right. Will not.

It's the 361 case that I had a problem with I think I inadvertently put 360

I'm building the 360 saw that right now
Probably my stupidity I placed an order yesterday for some case tools. I saw they had on sale and of course my account work long enough to place that order and then it stopped working

Thanks

Ok I found a leak at bottom seam of the ms038 I just asembled is this a defect that can repair myself or do I have to get another handle

 

[Bedford T]

No if you gassed it.

If you have a plastic welder you could try. Glue won't work. Can you tell how much area is leaking. Just depends.

If all else fails you could take a map torch and try.

I did put it up for a day I had gas in it trying to start it and when I went out today I notice some gas that leaked out not all of the gas that leaked out
I'll inspect it more tomorrow and let you know

 

[Ridge1]

I did get a email that my order has shipped out today even without me asking

 

[Bedford T]

Use your pressure gun on pressure with soapy water to check that, something you do when you are building it.

Check the cap, it is most like to leak and run under.

They don't have a pressure gun at the moment but I do have one coming in the latest tools that I ordered so I've been putting my chainsaws together shooting in the dark I was getting lucky right up until this 03 8

 

[Bedford T]

I would stop using them.

Sorry I meant I don't have a pressure gun at the moment but I do have one on order

Interesting Lee enough I went down to my local Stihl dealer today which is a hardware store to pick up the brake tension spring for the 066 and I ordered two more one for the another 066 the 360 and for the 361
While I was there I asked the repair guy if he ever sold any used Stihl chainsaw parts and he took me to a room in the back which was full of old Husqvarna and Stihl chainsaws probably from 50 years of them repairing these things so I've got a whole new source of parts that are OEM

 

[Bedford T]

I understood. It would be my nature to say things that are not nice when I hear of guys building saws and not testing them, while they build them. So instead I just said stop using them, as was a stab at a place holder statement. The underlying purpose is to be helpful before it's to late.

You might want to understand/look into why.

Sounds like you hit a honey hole on the parts, I find the right balance of Stihl parts makes these saws great saws. Now just hope he shares at a reasonable price.

I did order a 660 brake tension spring and it was like 5 and I was able to get it in just a couple of days so that was well worth it for me
What I was surprised to see is after I had ordered a Husqvarna Scabbard online and pay like $10 for it the Stihl dealer was selling theirs for like under $3 for a 36-in I was really surprised that the price but the quality is a super thin Scabbard
Back to the o38 I'm going to double-check the vent in the tank like I saw on your video make sure there's no rubber blocking the vent I'll drain the fuel and let all that are out then when my pressure gun gets here I'll do the test on the tank it's definitely not the cap because it doesn't leak when it's on its side it only leaks when it's upright there wasn't even enough fuel in it to reach the cap only put enough in there to make sure I could start it and test it never got it started so I went through all your videos and now I'm going through the check list on all the items that you pointed out
Have you had any more luck on your 038

 

[Bedford T]

No, I have not touched it, to many things, completely finished my 200t hope to start it in a couple days. Then I will move on 038. That saw haunts my dreams

Guys, huztl has the Stihl case cracking tool with the different adapter for less than 40$. What a buy. Having this on hand will make you a happy builder if you ever need it.

I ordered the case cracking tool it came in within reason less than 10 days I think used it on the o36 that I messed up a seal on it worked fine
And since hustle never responded and didn't want their crappy 361 case back I just remove the bearing seal and put it on the o36 where I screwed up to seal

 

[Bedford T]

Which of the cracking tools did you order the one piece

[Ridge1]

Sorry I mean I ordered it on the 22nd it's supposed to come in Saturday it's the one that has all the pieces for the different size saws
