Farmertec 380 started on choke this morning. But, true to its heritage (Stihl), the choke flapper in the air filter needs help to close.[emoji35]
Dog knot on the control shaft slips by the flapper lever.

Kind of a joke imo [emoji15]

But all makers do stupid stuff somewhere along the line. [emoji849]

Irritating problem with the 380.

AF cover ‘latch’ won’t fit over the pin in the air filter nut.[emoji90]

Tried two different af nuts so I’m sure it’s the latch at fault.

Anyone got an extra knob?
I've found that to be typical of the 028s especially, and some of the 038s. I do not have a solution.

Except to get mad. Then I run it without the cover, or tape it on with electrical tape. Or somethng equally unbefitting the mighty Über Alles.

What's the purpose of heating the piston and pin? Cleaning?
The aluminum piston expands at a greater rate than the steel pin. The pin slides in effortlessly with the piston hot and after the piston cools, it locks the pin into the piston pin bore.
