So i was out cutting with my ms 211 went too fill up and the bleedin filler cap just fell apart in my hand! Now i knew we had one over home somewhere so back i went! we have a shed which is called the plant room! (no clue why but we even have a field called the pig field which has never seen a pig!) In the plant room are the remains of many a two stroke tool from hedge cutters to strimmers, in there there's a stihl leaf blower which has a really nice pull start on it and each time i go in there i give it a pull and for the last 4 years its done nothing, today though i must of done something right because too my utter amazement it came too life!! The only trouble is i spent the rest of the day playing with the leaf blower and none looking for the filler cap! oops! :D

I've got a still br600 blower that almost always starts first pull for about 10 yrs too.  Only time it doesn't is when the fuel lines are cracked and need replacing.  Can't blame it for not running if it cant get gas.
