  A lot of small engine problems I see come from ethanol in pump gas. Even “fresh” fuel usually contains it unless you specifically buy ethanol-free gas.<br><br>It can eat fuel lines and damage carburetors like the one in this Stihl MS250.<br><br>What do you run in your chainsaws — regular or ethanol-free?

  I’m a Stihl tech in Colorado. &nbsp;Brother I appreciate your labor to perfection. &nbsp;Judging by how that 250 came in I’d think the owner well probably get it filthy again! &nbsp;😂. &nbsp;Good job showing folks how to do the disassemble/reassemble techniques. &nbsp;I try to empower saw owners to do maintenance themselves…

  No saw shop i&apos;ve seen does this much cleanup, props to you for doing it.

  I appreciate you not swearing and also for pointing out what might seem to be obvious tips for you. Making this a super satisfying and relaxing watch. Amazing work.

  You&apos;re not a weirdo, this is what sets your service apart. I totally understand the satisfaction you get from the pride in your work and the feeling you must get handing back the saw to the customer and seeing how pleased they are with a good as new saw. ❤

  I refurbish mowers and I do the same thing. Completely tear them down and deep clean them. It’s truly the only way to actually be sure everything is right. Some of these “flippers” think I’m crazy but my customers are happy so that’s what matters. Great job on this one. Looks awesome.

  Horticulturist here, in Australia who swears by my Stihl equipment. Well engineered and built to work.<br>I don&apos;t think I could ever manage to maintain my equipment to that level, but my local mower-shop and Stihl distributor does a pretty good job (sans cleaning)...<br><br>Watching this was like watching a magician reveal his tricks.<br>Amazing!<br>...and Lego or even Mechano (for those old enough to know) for &quot;grown-ups&quot;: yes, absolutely.<br>Also - seeing and understanding the fragility of certain parts within such a robust machine: eye-opening!<br><br>Wow. What a result.!<br>Thank you for sharing.
