OK someone that knows the 034 tell me what is going on with this 034. I ordered the crankcase dust cover and inner metal bar plate for this 034.
The 034 crank case only has 2 holes to mount and dosent even allow a 034 dust cover to be mounted on this one. Was there a very early 034 that was different?
Also bar plate with screw fits but this 034 has no hole for the screw to hold on the bar plate. I'm cornfused. Help............






Here is a pic of a 034 I did today to bypass stihl molded fuel line and fuel filters.  Here is how easy. Just pull old line out, clip both ends off by molded tank area, run new line through molded part that seals tank area. Install new filter, attach to carb and fixed for less then a dollar of fuel line and now you can use husky, poulan or any normal fuel filter IMO.

Thats a good fuel line idea C4F.

I've used Targon in place of the OEM lines .In fact I think that 034/036 had a line from an 029 .

I wish you could still find those nice limber lines made of buna-n or neoprene they used to make .If they still are made I have no idea where to find it .

Some Stihls have snap on bar plates. In most cases you will see both types of plates on the parts list.

I don't have a saw your size but on the bigger saws I have swapped the different types back and forth.

The snap on bar plate fits around the studs like a tinnerman nut.

The main thing I liked about the synthetic rubber is the fact it's so limber .I've used oil proof lines I got that were discarded from machine gauging at work plus the targon but have found after a period of time they both stiffen a tad bit .

I guess though plastic is limber enough it just won't allow enough flex to get all the fuel out of the tank which really isn't a bad thing .Sometimes you just have to get creative ,all others go to a dealer .
