Stihl MS 170 Oil system repair. Changing Oil pump, worm gear, oil line, service.

A good Stihl MS 170. New engine...from after marked. Light and good for small jobs...as cutting branches and small trees. Here I do oil pump change, worm gear change and go through the process. Also som passion cuddling with the saw at the end... aka cleaning I mean. A little dull chain. Several clips on how to do here on youtube, ...here is one of them he he. If you have this saw or want it....you might get some advises here or tips. Stihl saws is often fairly ok to work on for home... or do it self fixers, with tools and with enthusiasm and interest...for doing it self. Remember to often air brush this saws and keep them free from extensive saw dust and oil spill...as it can...on this saw, clog or hinder the fuel tank ventilation function. Some does not like the trigger function on this saw...the patent. But that is luxus problem...I think. I find it easy to use. All equipment need some after lokk or care...and knowledge. This is exellent saw for its purpose......if used only on small jobs. The handle mounting is not good for rough jobs...and also it is designed for small jobs....

    Hi ! Everyone has an opinion. I find Stihl to be very pleasant to work with. They handle teardown and assemble and are very facinated constructed...for the most part. But many models and not everyone is easy...but thats the cool thing...to give yourself some challenges i think. Try 024 and 026...try 025... Easy to work with ! :-) Good machines. The big proff machinery with complex throttle and brake patent...can be too much of a challenge for an amateur...I agree.

    None of these oil pump replacement videos explain how to ensure the hole on the oil pump lines up nicely with the hole that receives the oil, from a "how deep to insert the pump" perspective. Many videos say to push it in until it won't go any further but on my Stihl MS211, that puts the pump in a position where it doesn't line up with the gears that are driving it. One would think Stihl would put some sort of stopper in the housing such that the pump couldn't be inserted too far/shallow. If I'm overlooking something, please let me know what it is....

What exactly stops the pump from going beyond a specific depth? the pump nor the hole it goes in seems to have any "shoulder" or anything that would prevent it from being pushed all the way thru....i must be missing something.

    @@motordiverse1276 SOLVED: so for anyone reading this post down the road, i wanted to tell u what happened so maybe it would provide u with a clue. the local chainsaw repair "pro" got my chainsaw oil lube flowing again - all he did was take the oil cap off and put it on its side for 20 mins. said it was "air locked" which i guess happens when u take it all apart to figure out why it wasn't oiling the bar/chain in the 1st place. sounds like i fixed the original problem but in doing so, created this odd secondary "air lock" problem that none of the youtubers nor anyone online mentioned could happen when u introduce air into the oil's pathway. i'm a little confused why this wouldn't happen anytime u're out cutting wood and run out of oil in your reserve tank. maybe someone can explain that.....

    @@DB-xp9px Hey ! That is a very interesting topic...i think. But I am not that skilled in the details about air lock and fluid transport, vacuum, sentrifugal power... and how it works in the smallest details. I want to share how it can be mounted and fixed with relative cheap instruments. As in general...knowledge ob how to repair on smal gasoline engines...is for many... a necessety or of importance. To share for free is what I sometimes can do and are very pleased for all i self has learned on how to do...here on sharing platforms and youtube particular. Hmm I heard many peoples talk about air loops or lock...in many connections to mechanical engines and the fluid that circulates or goes from A to B. I am not too much expert on the topic, but can imagine such, often has an impact and influence...many situations with mechanic and fluid transportation. Especially after rebuilt i would think. When every chamber is empty and every valve is not passed ...yet. There is many things here in this tema...but mostly...it works out as it is expected to do.
