Well Sir........

There is a tool for each size clip.

They are not cheap either.

I'm not real familiar with all the different sizes of clips but I'm guessing 10,12,13 mm? I've only ever used one of my digits and a pocket screwdriver. Would these clip installers work on other brands as well?

Yeah, they work with all brands. 10, 12, and 13.

Are the cylinders all the same size and type?

Chambers look a bit different.

Two 026, and a 260

So I may be jumping the gun alittle on this thread, but what carbs do you prefer on these? I have a very nice metal tagged red levered 026 that I wanted to add a 038 or 044 carb with velocity stack. I would make a backing plate just like a 044/46/64 and 66 have already. Is it worth doing these mods or can you achieve the same results out of lets say a wt194?IMG_20151203_200232.jpg

I put the 194 in the one I rebuilt two summers ago

That's what the saw wears now is a wt194, but like most of us know the filtration system is the down fall of these saw's!

I bought one of those metal air filters from Stihl dealer
