Chainsaw Repair

Thanks Kevin.

That was what i was looking for. I do have one question if the heating element needs to be removed to say replace the tank. Is it still some what pliable to remove or is the element destroyed to be removed.

Thank you for helping me out

Tommy = I've removed lots of factory Stihl heat elements from rear handle, they usually come off really easy and are still fully functional.
The workshop manual will give an ohm rating for the element at room temp, if it meets spec, it should be good to go.

Trevor = I only glue the ones that won't stick. if they stick and I can get good pressure with the insert I let it go. It's the ones that have been removed twice that cause issues.

I could only imagine some of the responses that were giving.
Thank you to the guys on CRG. I knew somebody out there has been in the same boat or had the same question.
