Carbhub MS180 Cylinder Piston Crankshaft for Stihl MS170 MS180 018 Chainsaw Engine Motor Cylinder Replaces 1130 020 1208, 1132 030 0402

Perfect fit and runs good. Don't take the handle off, drill a hole through it on the bottom to access the one engine bolt. Use the bolts that comes with it for the engine and coil mount. The original bolts are not the same thread.

This Carbhub MS180 short block replaced the one in my MS170, so now I have a MS180 and it works excellent. I did put a little 2-cycle oil in the crankcase through the exhaust port in order to ensure that the crankshaft and connecting rod were lubber up (this step was probably not needed). I'm glad that the six bolts were provided because the existing bolts would not work. The only issue I had was that I overtightened one of the coil attachment bolts and might have stripped the threads, but it appears to be working still; but if it loosens up, I'll just tap some new threads for a different bolt. My MS170 or now MS180, now works like a new chainsaw.

Replaced motor in my Stihl MS170. Everything work perfect in the saw is running great. I am very pleased. I would buy again.

Bought this to test for fun. It works well once its started. Getting the saw going is the hard part. I work on chainsaws an small engine at my local repair shop. No matter what I do with the carb screws it still takes around 10 pulls to start.

Don't buy. Spark plug hole was stripped out. Had to much spray paint in hole. I did tap the threads back out and it did clean up the threads. But the Compression on it was not good. Only 50 psi compression. Got mad and through it away. I should of sent it back.

My saw 018C is about 30 years old now. Compression was too low to run. Rather then install new rinds I replaced the motor with this one. It came with the metric replacement hardware. It was well packed and looks well made. It was a perfect fit. The saw fired up without any problems. I let it idle for a few minutes and cool. Repeated a few times before trying it out. It's easy to start, runs good and has decent power. Time will tell how long it will live but for now, I'm happy with the motor.

Installed this in a Stihl 180 chain saw that was determined to be not worth repairing due to cost of parts.

Delivered as stated, worked great
