In Serious Need of Manual and Cylinder Kit For Stihl 045 Av Super

[Swilliams9403]

I inherited a Stihl 045 AV Super when my father-in-law passed away. I had an 034 AV Super but love the size and handling of the 045 AVSE. Last year my son in law put the wrong mix in both saws so I am having to rebuild both. I easily found the cylinder/piston kit for the 034 and although I can find the piston kit for the 045 AV SE, I cannot find the cylinder. I am finding that they are hard to come by. If anyone out there knows where I might find one or has one just laying around, I would GREATLY appreciate your help. I am also badly in need of a manual for the 045 AV SE. If anyone has that, it would also be a huge help. We have to heat our house with wood for the winter because we have no other heat source, and I desperately need to get these saws up and running ASAP. It was kind of a shock to me when I went to start them recently and discovered they were both TU. Thanks so much for any assistance anyone can provide!

Yea, the super is a 54mm, not a 52mm. But thanks for looking!

There are a couple of 54mm jugs on sale on ebay right now. Pistons are easily available aftermarket items.:msp_thumbup:

Edit: You may have to search for 056 cylinder, but I`m sure you know that they are the same.

I'm hoping our mechanic has finally got it all handled. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Everytime I'd do a search looking for something, I was almost always directed to this site. You all know what you are talking about so finding this site was a great find. Thanks again.
