It had carburator issues for quite a while. So I probably did this by not addressing the carb issue sooner.

The saw guy always told me that I ran the saw hard in the heat and then just shut it down was why I scored pistons before. I would have no way of knowing Andy.

Hey guys. I have another 200T I'm working on. This one has a scored piston on the exhaust side. I am going to get a piston/cylinder and cylinder gasket for it and I was wondering if I should replace the crankshaft seals while I was there. Also are there any other things I should do while I'm...

I'll check it out Ax man

I put gas back in it and got it started. It had the usual thing that those saws get where it wants to stall at idle, and leans out when you try and accelerate.

I know. It is odd. I'll try it all again before I start rebuilding stuff.

This is a different 200T Stephen. It has spark, I took the chain side cover off and the cylinder is a different color than everything else so I think this is the one that i had rebuilt. The compression is real good, the carb is unknown as to it's status. I think it's old. Probably sat with...

I took the starter off and low and behold, the wire connector had come off of the coil or whatever that black thing is. I squished the connector down with a pliers until it stuck on there pretty good and put it back on. Thanks guys. Saw is all better, now for the other 200t. It's been so...

Thanks to yous guys everything is working great....almost. I put a new carburator on it, and so now it idles, it accelerates awesomely, the chain stops when it idles thanks to the new clutch springs, I put a new sprocket on it. I just have one thing left. It doesn't shut off with the switch...

:lol: You guys. I'm retarded, I just got back from getting the springs and I look at my sprocket and it's all worn. :|:

So Al if I grab the clutch and it wobbles around should I replace the bearing?

I took the cover off today and two of the three springs are broken. I'll get springs on Monday I suppose. The stihl place here in Vegas is closed on Saturday. Thanks guys.

I have noticed that bearing in there before. I am somewhat new at chainsaw mechanics. I always took it to the saw shop but am trying to do some of this myself. I'm thinking that whenever I brought the saw into the shop before they probably lubed that bearing. I'll check it out tomorrow.

The chain is a little loose but not sagging or anything. :) Thanks I will check those things.

I have a 200T that the chain runs at idle and the idle speed is pretty slow. In fact it usually ends up dying. I have even had the chain run when pulling the starting rope. Need help. :?
