Then you would have the HS56CE which does not have a spark arrester. Note: the NGK CMR6H spark plugs are bad to fail so have spare one on hand.

Now if you had the HS56CEZ then you would of had a spark arrester.

Thanks for that information. However, the name on top, says HS 56c would that be incorrect.

I just have 1 Stihl product....an FS 66...my high school (47 yrs ago) buddy died and his wife said "here....something is wrong with it.."
I figured out the problem but Stihl doesn't make parts for that model anymore. I need a coil and can't find one anywhere. I've called the local repair shops looking for a used one to buy but no luck...Anybody have any ideas?

Hi, I'm Shane from Florida.
I have a FSA 56 trimmer, anybody know about those? I don't think they make them anymore.
Anyway, I'm debating expanding my Stihl electric equipment, since I already have the AK20 battery and AL101 charger, which apparently charges all Stihl batteries except the handhelds. I'm looking to buy a new blower, but Stihl has my options limited at the moment because all of the newer models do not come with the newer AP battery. Are they on a shortage of them maybe?

Hello. I just picked up a Stihl weed eater model number FS 55 RC. It is excellent. Much better than the battery one we got and returned immediately. Also have a vintage Stihl chainsaw from probably the 70s or 80s that I was given by a neighbor whose basement flooded and the chainsaw got wet. It runs great still. I’m a auto mechanic by trade but love working on anything and have recently gotten more into small engines. Glad to be a part of the forum. And the Stihl family.

Hello, I’m Lloyd. Retired and bought my first gas powered weed eater - FS 70 R - about 10 months ago. Need to add items to it so that’s why I’m here!

I own 2 MS251 chainsaws, BR550 backpack blower, SH86 shredder/blower, FS110R line trimmer. 2 Troybilt law mowers, Troybilt 2410 snow thrower, Earthquake chipper shredder. I usually do all my own maintenance and repair. I even do vehicle maintenance and repair as needed.
My first engine overhaul was when I was in High School and my dad said go ahead and overhaul our mower. So without having a manual or Youtube, and having just tools, to took the Clinton engine apart, carefully putting the parts in several small cardboard boxes. My dad looked at what I had done and later brought home new parts to go into the engine. I reassembled it and it worked perfectly and with lots more power. That i s how I stated in small engine repair.
