Easy to follow and thorough step by step tutorials do it yourself (DIY) to help you with your broken lawn and garden equipment including snowblowers.
I do my best to teach you how to easily diagnose problems the fastest, quickest and most efficient way with real repairs beyond just replacing a spark plug. These tips are for both the homeowner and shop owner.
Whether it be a handheld, two stroke, two cycle engine like chainsaws, weed eaters, weed wackers, string trimmers, grass trimmers, line trimmers, hedge trimmers, strimmers, brush cutters, leaf blowers, or four stroke, four cycle units like lawn mowers, lawn tractors, snowblowers, pressure washers, generators, ride on mowers that need parts installed or replaced, I’m your go-to guy.
My favorite brands of spark plugs are NGK and Champion and are the ones I recommend.
I’ve been a small engine mechanic for many decades and also run my own repair shop so my videos are loaded with tips and tricks that I have learned and want to share with you. You will also find many tool and product reviews from top brands on my channel as well.
I have the largest Small Engine Repair Video Library on KZread and the entire internet with over 1200 videos, just GOOGLE "DONYBOY73"!
I want "DON THE SMALL ENGINE DOCTOR" on KZread to save you time, frustration and most importantly, MONEY with my HOW-TO videos!

Oops you were correct clockwise sorry amigo 😅
One of the best "how to " videos I've seen. Right to the point and extremely well done. Thank you
Before stripimg down the clutch etc. use a piece of electric wire, 1.5mm and try to unblock the oiler hole as far down as you can, then use a piece of 25lb fishing line and do the same, the fishing line will go around the bend right through to the oil pump and clear any blockage there. 99% of the time this is the cure.
I owned a Stihl for over 20 years now and it never even occurred to me it had an oil pump. Now i got something else to check out on it. Thanks.
This video stands the test of time. The close ups and detailed explanations instill confidence to make these repairs by the owners. The Stihl chainsaw we own still has a plaque that reads "Made in Germany". I was using it last year to help my neighbor clear a large downed tree, but most of the way into clearing the tree it stopped oiling. It's been sitting for a year now and this spring I can finally sit outside, hopefully a warm sunny day, and get into this. All I need is the 27 star tool. Thanks again for all the details, including tools and screw locations. And, this isn't the first video of yours I've seen. Much thanks DB.
If there is a YT award for 'Best Small Engine Repair Channel', Don would win hands-down! Beautifully filmed and explained.
Without question, this is by far the best saw repair video I’ve ever seen. No BS jabbering, no annoying elevator music, no advertising. Every detail perfectly shown. Each step of disassembly and reassembly perfectly explained, right down to specific tools. Perfect camera placement and clear audio of great diction. Stihl should put you on their payroll!

donyboy73, thank YOU! I was about to toss my MS250C in the trash, but now I’m confident that I can have it working like new with no problem. The oiler is the only problem I’ve ever had with this saw, but it was driving me crazy.
Excellent video. Clear, concise, comprehensive, good pacing, doesn't waste my team. This is how to do an instructional video! Subscribed!
My STIHL technician taught me to check the depth of the oil pump prior to removal, and to reinstall at the same depth - so it works properly.
I’ve been watching chainsaw how-to videos for a long time and this one is the absolute best I’ve seen. I very much appreciate your approach snd methods …thank you 👍🏼
In the US I was sold a 1123-640-3201 oil pump. I believe it takes a 10-32 machine screw rather than the M5 used for the 1123-640-3200 oil pump shown in the video. Great video.
Well-made, no-nonsense, professional video. You don't waste our time with needless conversation like so many of the other self-help videos out there, you get right to the point and tell us what we need to know. Great camera angles, good closeups, good lighting, attention to detail, and excellent descriptions of the procedures and what to watch out for, including safety recommendations. Excellent job, keep those well-made videos coming, they are greatly appreciated!

Great video and very clear instructions. Had same issue on my saw, stripped it down and replaced rubber pipe. Later found it was the oil cap that was leaking. Now replaced and all clean underneath.
A quick look through the comments says it all for me. This has to be the best "how to" video I've ever seen. Every detail is covered in such a professional manner, it was a joy to watch. Thank you donyboy, your efforts in producing this video are greatly appreciated.

I was about to write this comment but I'll simply agree with you whole heartedly
My god! That poor saw never seen a lick of proper maintenance. Imagine how reliable it would be with only a little maintenance. Great video!
Thankyou so much Donyboy. The other day, I replaced all of the oiler components on my MS230 which had stopped supplying oil to the bar and chain. Your very clear explanation and instructions made it easy. For those in the UK contemplating any DIY maintenance on their Stihl machinery (or indeed most garden machinery) I can recommend L&S Engineers for all parts supplies. Clear parts diagrams on their website, competitive prices and quick delivery. The combination of DonyBoy's clear instructions and the availability of parts makes servicing and repairing your own machinery a walk in the park.
*OUTSTANDING DETAILS! NOT MANY EXPLAIN THINGS LIKE THIS! OUTSTANDING!
Just a great DIY chainsaw repair video! When my oiler stopped, I didn't have a clue how to fix it. I found your video, enjoyed watching it and knew immediately I could do the repair because of your excellent explanation and high quality videography. Two things I found by accident during my repair: The handle bolts will fit the oil pump for extraction, so you'll always have an extractor tool. And, to clean the small oiler hole, I inserted the oil straw attached to my can of WD40. Give it a good squirt and it flushes out debris.
There is a shortage of people like you sir!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Would say more but my saw is fixed and Im burning daylight. Cheers mate.
Thank you, it's one thing knowing your stuff and another being able to teach it - you do both BRILLIANTLY. Best teaching I've seen on YT full stop. Given me the steps and confidence to tackle a dry 044. Echo your oil /bar check, taught to do it as a safety check on every saw start. Subscribed without hesitation.
Your videos are absolutely the best! So clear and excellent description. A repair shop manual drawings are tough to understand. I often recommend your vids. You've saved counless dollars and down time.
Don is clear, comprehensive, compact, and always mentions safety!
It makes a big difference when you keep the job clean. Thank You!!!
This is another great video. Clear, concise, and complete. The job itself is a little more involved than I would normally be comfortable taking on but I think I could do it by referring back to this video and taking pictures as I went. Thanks for another very informative video.
A true professional.Beautifuly constructed video.Operaters like me want to understand how their Gear works and carry out repairs Themselves.Truly priceless!!!
What a lifesaver...my '94 025 will get some beauty treatment thanks to your video. As many said, great detail/editing.
Excellent vid....every step simply explained right from the start to the end... thanks for taking the time
THE ABSOLUTE BEST EXPLANATION OF ANY I HAVE WATCHED.
Thank you for this video. I have a MS290 but many of the steps are similar. The pump on my unit was actually easier to remove, just two bolts and I didn’t have to remove the handle. This video gave me enough info and confidence to do the job. My pump was starting to bind and that caused the plastic worm gear to eat itself. Two parts and back up again. Thanks!!!
I just bought a few used stihl saws and they need the exact repair you showed here. Glad I watched your video. Thanks
Very clear explanation of how to - gives me great confidence in doing it myself. Best of all instructive videos. Thanks very much.
Great video. This saved me from buying a new saw. The repair was easy and best of all it worked. The saw oils fine now.
Last week I bought used stihl chainsaw and I want just clean up, but, found oil leaks, this video help me, to understand from where and how to repair. I'm doing everything very excited and when I'm done, I was very happy that I doing by myself. Thanks for the video, really cool!
I was the guy who's 025 Stihl was in storage since '07. I believe I wrote to one of your other vids about not being able to pull the starter rope to "turn it over." I pulled with more force and everything was fine after that. When I opened the case after 9 years all the chain oil had bled out of the saw. "THIS" video helped me resolve that problem and I want to thank you for this helpful video. My '97 025 is essentially the same saw as the saw in this video. I'm mechanically inclined, but, never worked on my 025. I followed your procedures here and replaced the oil tube as well as that little "O" ring...problem solved! The Torx T-27 driver and the M-5 metric screw you recommended were "spot on." I checked out the pump...it was good. Put it all back and everything is fine. The Stihl dealer that I bought the saw in '97 is still in business. The "piston stop" they gave me...I couldn't get it to work, but, inserting a soft poly ski-rope that worked fine. One question I have...the bar is nice and flat and not distorted or worn out and the oil hole is dispersing oil well...is it normal to have a bit of oil drip down after the saw is turned off? I set the saw onto a flat surface after running it and there was a small dime size puddle of oil that came from the bar where the oil hole is. Is that normal? Thanks again for this great video.
Huge help to simplifying what seems like a big project. Love your detailed and easy to understand videos!

I definitely need to do this with my chainsaw as well. It's not getting any oil to the chain. So thanks for the video. It is a big help.
Very well done! Nice to see a thorough, concise "how to" video like this!
Dony you have helped me with many of my projects. All with great results. You speak very clear and your directions are perfect. Thank you for your videos $!
I just came across a 250 that had been thrown away, that I decided to resurrect. This video s what I needed. Outstanding!
You're an awesome teacher. If there's a tech school in your area they should be looking for you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and giving such precise detail. Excellent job on shooting the video too. With your help, was able to replace a bad clutch on my Stihl 290. I'll be looking for more of your videos.
Brilliant video, clear & informative & just what I needed. Thankyou.
Brilliant video! As a relative newby to chainsaws, it's really interesting to know how bits and pieces work and how to troubleshoot, repair or replace. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
I came across your video about 8 months ago when my oiler was not working on the chainsaw. It turns out I just needed to clean things up. I also cleaned the weep holes on the bar. Put it all back together and it worked great.
Great job Don we can tell your a great mechanic because how easy you make this look and how clean the saw is when you reassembled it. Very well done thank you.
Excellent how too video. Mine had a plugged groove on the oil pump. Pump is good. Saved me some bucks thanks
Wow, great video and great information! Thank you thank you thank you for this info.. Don’t know if I have the confidence to tackle the oil pump but your video explanation is top dollar!
Awesome video. My 250 wasn't oiling and this video showed me exactly what to do. It's easy to see why you have so many subscribers. Thanks for sharing what you know with the rest of us.
Such a great video! Nobody, and I mean nobody, does 'how-to' videos better than you. Thank you so much. Never stop.
thank you, i can't find such good explaination in France! merci beaucoup, très utile, vidéo très dur a trouver en français, mais pas besoin de traduction, la vidéo parle d'elle même!
Great video, Donny. Info is complete and concise. My chainsaw has been leaking oil, and, now, I know to go check the oil connector. Thanks for the great info! You've earned a sub.
Wow another awesome video. Wish I'd seen it several years ago when mine wasn't feeding oil. Tried almost everything and finally gave up and used it for parts for my other two MS170's!!
Just want to thank you for a great video. I have a machine shop and know my way around alot of products. To day I disassembled my Stihl ez start 250. With notes from the video is was very easy. Thank you for saving me alot of time and money.
This video is perfect! I have an MS-250 Chainsaw, and noticed the chain wasn't getting oil. Followed your instructions. Turns out the O-ring on that plastic piece was pinched. Not installed correctly at the factory. I ordered the same parts you did, just in case. It's really quite easy if you see someone do it once or twice, and know what to expect. Thanks for these great videos.

Thank you up loading this tutorial vd. It is is very thorough. This is exactly what I need to replace for my MS260.
because of your well detail videos, I have been able to fix my three ms180 chainsaw........ Thank you.
This should be the "bar" to meet in technical instruction videos. Exemplary! Thank you, you are a master of thoughtful and knowledgable repair.
Well done. You're as good of an instructor as you are mechanic.
Great video, and info, SO MUCH MORE help then talking too the service desk personnel..
The best, helpful video I've seen. Thank you!
Fantastic instructional video - much appreciated!
Thanks Donny, Thorough step by step explanation. Cheers mate.
Great video. Thank you for going into detail about which hole in the oil pump is the exit port. I pulled the oil pump out of a Stihl gas pole saw and didn't know which way it went back in. Fortunately mine only needed a good cleaning of the oil system.
Thank you so much.the detailed just like preventive maintenance for semiconductor equipment. Great job. 😊
Wow - I am usually pretty critical about DIY videos, I end up watching numerous ones and still it is not enough. BUT, my MS290 had the same issue. It turned out to be a clogged oil filter and because of your video I just went in and replaced everything that was worn!! YOU ARE REALLY GOOD AT THIS! FYI, the Stihl dealer wanted $55 to diagnosis the issue and if it was the pump. $115 with parts----3 week waiting time. I hope somehow you are in education or training, if not, you should be - Best DIY video I have seen in a long time - Thank You!!
these long videos are the ones i love. Thankyou

Super clear presentation. Thanks
For additional help in lining up the pump during replacement, there is a symbol next to the hole for the pump. It represents the positioning of the new pump with the groove on the pump facing the correct direction. I like all of your videos, you are very thorough and explain things every step of the way.
