[AT] Looking for parts for STIHL

[John Hall]

I have bought parts for some Stihls older than yours in the last couple 
years from Stihl. Price the part from them and consider fixing it yourself. 
Or, find an older shop and buy one out of their junkpile and rob parts. Also 
Stihl saws are quite frequent on Ebay--you see a lot of them torn down and 
sold off in small lots of parts. If you can wait, you can probably find the 
part rather inexpensively.
