O44 Help

see that orange thingy coming from the gas tank? it leaks gas right there at horizontal or upside down angles, seems to me like it should have a tube hooked up and going somewhere.

Any help would be great.

I had a look at my 038 magnum, which has a platic tank on it, and checked the parts manual. My saw looks nothing like yours. From your pics, I would guess that it is a vent. If it was a fuel line, I think you would see a tang(larger at the top) on it.

You might want to check e-bay, and get a service manual cheap. Or contact the local Stihl shop.

Sorry I couldnt help more!

Got the part today at Stihl shop, thanks guys. It was a little silicon breather that pops in from inside the tank.

Mine doesn't have that mate.

PM me if you want a manual.

Shaggs, yours is probably on the other side.

Just kidding.

I posted just to see if you were paying attention. Lefthand saw, get one of those for me but only if the chain runs backwards. LOL Being on the south end of the planet and all.
