Hi just picked up a Stihl 026 it looks to have been last serviced 20 years ago !!
It’s a very dirty saw in need of a good service.
My compression test shows 145 psi how does that fare?
The saw runs yet the oiler doesn’t appear to be working chain removed no oil at the port?
Oil has some in will check filter inside I’m suspecting oil pump u/s ?
The chain spins at idle, removed the clutch the springs are still fitted.?
Going to order a service kit start there, any pointers please shout up not had this one or a large saw got the 181 got this to cut up logs for the fire.
Intention is to get running fine to use as required not a daily saw.
