Stihl 011 Oil Line Replacement

[Carhartt]

I have an 011 that the oil line came unattached. Anyone have a trick to find the nipple and reattach? Without splitting the case. I cant even see it with a mirror and flashlight. Had to happen to someone else besides me.

Is it possible to feed the line from the outside of case to the inside of oil reservoir and back down to the diaphragm pump?

just remove the pump which gives you access to inside oil tank and the oil pump nipple and then you feed the line in through the oil output hole and loop and hook to oil pump and then reassemble

I think we are on the same page. Pump and filter are removed. I just assumed the loose end of the oil line attached to a nipple, but I am wondering if it just lays snuggly in the bar supply hole out the side of the case.

Hose end at the bar mount gets this little piece of flaired tubing.

Or, a goober of 3M weatherstrip adhesive works.

A spring should be inside the old hose to eliminate kinks.

The 012 is one of my most favorite antique Stihl.

There ya go. That's what I needed to know. I have a few of those flares and sure I can find a spring or a piece of wire. I don't believe that to be the hose. It would have no reason to have the grommet its all internal.

The hose I ran into on one that I was restoring was too long and that's what caused it to kink inside the tank. I clipped a half inch off of it, reattached, and she oiled fine after that.

I use the spring inside oil pickup lines to solve kink or collapses.

Above hose is a 200t. They are problematic. [emoji2955]
