I just gifted a Stihl MS180C that needs some work. I'm looking for the following so I can repair it myself (my local shop wants to sell me a new one). Looking for:

-Workshop manual
-Parts diagram
-Stihl "General Servicing, Troubleshooting“ handbook

Also, if you all have a recommended online parts supplier for piston, carb, "overhaul" kit, etc. that would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I am newly registered to this site. I have purchased a lightly used Stihl 046 that is in excellent condition. However, it has not been used for many years. Would anyone have a repair manual for that unit that I can research before I fire it up. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, and EVERYONE have a GREAT day!
