Crucial to the saw, cheap to replace but often forgotten.
I'll be showing you how to replace it on a STIHL ms261c and tell you what it means if the spark plug is dark, black or white in color or why it's wet.
If you want your chainsaw to keep on running well you should replace this inexpensive part regularly.

Thanks for making another informative video. I enjoyed it. If it wouldn't be to much trouble if your already videoing a tree you are going to climb. I would like to see how you access a tree for climbing such as looking for hazards, and maybe how you come up with a general plan for breaking down the tree. Kinda seeing how you view a tree as an experienced professional would be awsome.

A good practice, if available, is to blow air around the spark plug before extracting it. Don’t want any of the crap getting into the cylinder and crank case.
