COMPLETE THE REBUILD — DON'T STOP AT THE PISTON
A piston replacement is one of the most involved repairs you can do on a chainsaw. Since you already have the engine apart, this is the perfect time to refresh all the parts that wear together. Missing any of these leads to a callback repair:
- Carburetor (often the reason for low compression in the first place)
- - Air Filter HD2 (must be cleaned or replaced after any engine rebuild)
- - Spark Plug NGK CMR6H (mandatory after any top-end service)
- - Service Tune-Up Kit (includes all gaskets, filter, and plug needed)
- - Cylinder Piston Kit Nikasil (premium upgrade if you want full cylinder replacement)
FITMENT — VERIFY BEFORE ORDERING
Important: Stihl used two different piston/cylinder variants on the MS462. This kit fits only one version.
Before ordering, verify the OEM part number or compare your existing piston and cylinder to the listing photos and specifications. If you are unsure which version your saw has, contact us before purchasing. Do not install the kit until fitment has been confirmed.
