STIHL The Official Stihl Chainsaws Thread

[PogoInTheWoods]

Cool. They do have some torque for a 45-ish cc saw..., more than most folks give em credit for.

Stihl 044 cylinder. Damage is not raised. It’s between the intake and a transfers. Save it for a future build or scrap it?

If it’s near the end of the rings I personally wouldn’t mess but I can’t remember where the location pins for the rings are at exactly and if the ring ends will end up where plating is gone.

The 6th time was the charm!

Is this a Bosch or the SEM ignition?

I’m going to do Foggysail’s capacitor replacement but want to be sure. [emoji848]

Looks like the Bosch logo to me.

Hah! Underside of the magnet wheel has Bosch stamped in it.

Yep. Bosch. Gotta have the right type and value of capacitor, though I think there is a little wiggle room in the voltage rating.

If you happened to run across some of the caps Foggy originally specified I'd like to get a few if the source isn't on Mars and wants ridiculous money for em.

Links from the thread led me to this:
(10) .0056uF 1000V 3.5% Philips MKP 376 AC and Pulse polypropylene capacitors https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/291187520152

Even if they are wrong value, I’m only out six bux.

Cool. Thanks. I'll hafta circle back through the thread to find where there was some discussion about the flexibility of the cap choice.
Pretty sure guys have been successful with caps other than the ones originally suggested. Hope these work out for ya.
