Help identifying stihl

[Da dog man]

Does anyone know if there's a site or any way to identify a Stihl saw off just serial number? Gifted to me no markings other than serial looks to be 50cc range do not have pics at the moment it says made in USA on recoil. Looks like a 026. It's not a clamshell. Thanks in advance

Serial number is 231533681

Need a photo or if you find a Stihl part number on the plastics you can look number up to find out saw family

10-4 did see part numbers inside the top cover. Are any pro saws made in USA or all German

Lots made in Virginia Beach, in the current saw line up the ms362 is the cross over point.
Some Germany made some USA. Any saw smaller than that will be USA made usually if for sale here. The only change would be a shortage maybe and they had to fill in with German built. They all use the same parts anyway no matter what plant it’s built in. I have my original 026 red lever that I got new in 1991 that was made in Virginia Beach. Also no matter what anyone tells you an 026 is a pro saw weather it has pro or not written on it. The pro is just adjustable oiler and decomp button vs the standard 026.

You can always take a Sharpie and write "pro" on it

Automatically adds 20 cc when you do that, and if you double down and add "Magnum", it jumps to a 93 cc saw!

Thanks for the input I'll post some pics in a hr or so hopefully it is a 026 bc I'm in need of a 50cc saw. Definitely not a red lever

The red lever does nothing despite what some say like it’s some magical power adder. Must have been cheaper at the time to make red plastic vs black.

Ok so the pn for the top cover says 1121 084 0901. It does not have a decomp 2 bar studs judging by the air filter I found it matches the 026 however I'm having trouble uploading pics so can't show u pics

It’s probably an 024 super or 026 if it has the big filter. I know lots of if not all 024 standards had a small filter and top cover that wasn’t flat

 

[Da dog man]

Top of cylinder is stamped 05 "B"

 

[Da dog man]

Top cover is flat an filter is big ish. Bigger than the Lil plastic one on a 025 out beagle club has a 025 for maintenance an it's got like a Lil window screen plastic one

An it has an adjustable oiler on the bottom sorry for a million posts I'm discovering more the more gunk I chip off. I don't think it was ever cleaned an might of had cooking oil in the bar oil bc she nasty

That isn't too dirty, there are worse. Here is an 026 I worked on, I didn't think to take a picture of the clutch area or the flywheel side. This thing almost got up and walked away by itself...



Just wait until you work on a saw that someone has put transmission fluid into for B&C oil....that stuff stinks and is a mess.

Yes sir that is impressive. Wouldn't think ATF would be economical compared to bar oil
