Rebuilding a Stihl 200T a neighbor gave to me for repairing his saws. The cylinder and piston were toast, so splurged and got an OEM cylinder and piston. Waiting on a pressure tester to check crankcase pressure before I do the rebuild, but think this saw needs crank seals at least. Checked the vacuum and it does not hold on my Mityvac (My Mityvac only does vacuum, so waiting on the pressure tester). I have heard many good things about aftermarket parts, but would appreciate advice on whether I should use OEM oil seals and crank bearings. I did buy an oil seal installation tool since I heard the seals can be tricky to install. Adding some other new parts, so want to end up with a pretty good saw.
Also would like to find a source for some reflector foil- part number 1129 351 3000. The foil in the saw is pretty beat up and might as well replace it.
