:lol:that "Silver Fox".

:lol:that's OK it's all good.

:?:)

Sounds like a seized rubber tipped metering needle;)

Trying to diagnose a saw problem over the net can be a joke......see your dealer:lol:

A primed carb will fire and run for a few seconds the first try but after that the plug is wet it won't ignite the 2nd prime. Proper atomization is needed and if the carb is not producing a balanced flow of fuel mist and air charge..... it will not run. Diaphragms and crank seals are one...

Magnus I never heard of Ratioparts, do you still have any part # to confirm.

I've been running 020/200's for over 20 years doing carving and arb work and never found a rim sprocket conversion kit for that saw. I have 1/4", 3/8 Picco and .325 setups for them but only in spur sprocket drum. Only my Husqvarna 338XPT was I able to find a rim sprocket conversion kit to fit...

I was starting to wonder if you fell into a rabbit hole :P

Not sure what you mean Justin. All the MS200's I've owned only came with a spur type sprocket..... not rim. I have never found a rim sprocket conversion kit for the 020/200.

:lol:

Yeah I like to think of derails can be called "rabbit trails"...........seeing we're on the subject of rabbits:D

As I said spring run off water there was still ice so no chance of salmonella. No not on a rez, in the Boreal forest making a living with a chainsaw.

Steve, it's been 25 years since I last smoked a cig. But yeah in my younger days if I ran out of matches I'd pull the plug out of the Jonsereds 621 , take a piece of the tin foil paper out of the cig pack and dip it in the fuel tank . Then hold the wet paper under the spark plug , crank her over...

Outboard clutch knocked off with a scrench and a foot long hardwood stick against the engines compression in 30 seconds:lol: Let me tell you about lighting a cigarette with the saws spark plug........:/:

Al's right a bearing gone bad can make a drum wobble, but 9 out of 10 heat over time causes clutch springs to break from normal use. Saw clutches put out an amazing amount of heat during normal cutting , run a saw a bit and then touch the clutch drum with your bare finger. Springs heating up...

I never saw a tech manual specifying to grease the inside of a clutch drum. My Stihl 090 has clutch shoes that contact the drum with a brake pad type of material on their surfaces..

Majority of Stihl saws except the MS200 are inboard clutches. The Husqvarna out board clutch saws easily throw excess grease with the sprocket and chain, grease piling up inside a inboard clutch saw not so good.....Stihl is picky about things like that.

That tells me right there it's more then a loose chain. Broken clutch spring or seizd clutch drum bearing or as Stephen said clutch drum full of crud catching the clutch shoes.

You need new clutch springs or spring (can't remember):D If not that the the clutch drum bearing is seized.
