Usually not enough to overcome the needle and seat in a properly operating carb though. Also most 028’s had the line type vent with a couple grub screws so not really that likely to plug
Stay away from galvanized metal unless wearing a good respirator with proper cartridges. The drinking milk is a myth and zinc is absolutely no good for you when breathing the fumes.
Only saws are one year going to two for homeowners, blower, trimmers ect go 2 to 4 and I’m glad someone cleared this up to keep the information straight
You got a bad old bottle, I’ve never heard or seen this and no matter how much the internet advises against ultra tons of people use it including lots of the pro tree service guys and not one has ever said anything of the mix turning orange or smelling sour after being mixed for a couple weeks.
The oil doesn’t degrade in gas or once opened it requires the microbes in the soil to break it down. The oil will degrade by 80% in 21 days after being spilled on ground. I realize some people really hate ultra but let’s be realistic Stihl isn’t selling an oil that degrades in gas in 21 days...
I’m kinda under the impression that ultra is fine as long as the equipment is run hard it’s in the more babied stuff that its high flash point keeps it from burning clean. All hard used equipment that’s run wide open with little idle time seems ok
Sounds more like your neighbors the issue than a Stihl issue. Buy a 6 pack of oil and the Stihl will have a 4 year warranty. My fs 56 starts 1-2 pulls usually if you start how they say to same with my blowers ecr
Italian designs with sleek lines, Stihl isn’t into that as much but the s-10 is actually a neat design in my opinion, but overall Stihl’s into over engineering stuff on occasion which tracks with the German roots of the company.
If you have access to a plastic welder you could dremel it bigger on the outside to expose more to weld to. Then put the piece in position add a some stainless screen to area on the outside and weld it back together.
Good luck with that now what could be afforded with cash for me wouldn’t be much and pretty hard to save 1000$ a month for the next 5-6 years without a vehicle for work.
