Don't make me chop you
I had to change Stihl dealers as my old dealer finally have to give up his business due to health issuses and financial troubles due to increased competition.
I was at my new dealer picking up parts. The subject of crummy gas and carb troubles came up. The tech said to try some of this new premixed gas you can buy in a can to clean out a carb. They have been using the new gas in the shop and say it works . It was worth a try to me as I hate tearing down a carb so I bought some to try on a few saws that are running doggy. I hope it works.
A small 32 0z. can cost about $4.00. Not going to running much of this that is for sure but it seems to popular with homeowners. The dealer told me that Stihl is going to be coming out with their own stuff soon, get this, that same 32 oz. can from Stihl is going to cost almost $ 9.00. That is a heck of a mark-up.
I don't know if this will work but it is worth a try before tearing into a carb or buying a new one.
Anyone have thoughts on this.
