    Cannot get chain to stop spinning even after carb adjustment.

    I have an old 440 that I just made a 440/460 hybrid. I put a brand new carb on it when I did the swap because when it was just a 440 I couldn't ever get the carb adjusted correctly, or so I thought. The 440 piston was also absolutely shot so I never really thought about the issue being anything...

    465 Rancher II crank in 460?

    Hi! Has anyone tried putting a 465 (34mm) crank in a 460 rancher? Or a 455 for that matter. Because the 465 and 460 has the same bore but different stroke, would the crankcase just be too small for the longer stroke? You'd have to get the jug too from a 465 but i can get everything from my work...

    Husqvarna CD CHAINSAW need help finding cc size!!!!

    Hi everyone I have my dads old husky chain saw. It was spray painted at one time so I cleaned it up and made it orange again. The only problem is that before I started there was no Id tag and no stickers on the saw. I need to know what the heck model number it is and cc size without tearing the...

    Factory Idle Speeds

    I'm trying to make a cheat sheet or pocket card for the guys at work to use when tuning saws. I'm having trouble tracking down the suggested idle settings for a few models that we own. I know tuning to ear is a better practice, but I need a quantifiable range to use as a baseline for the ones...

    Sold Stihl 440 magnum

    I've got a Stihl 440 magnum that belongs to a customer who asked me to help him sell it. I put a carb kit and fuel filter in it and gave it a quick tune. The saw cleaned up pretty good and has good compression (170 +/-). It will come with a 20" bar. Haven't personally used this saw so this is...

    Sold Stihl 460

    I've got a Stihl ms460 magnum in good used shape, 170 lbs on compression. Runs great and oils as it should. I bought this one in a lot of 6 running saws a few days ago. The only thing I've done to it is cleaned it up and inspected it well, it cranks on 3rd pull when cold and 1st when warm. Has...

    Hey guys and gals, I'm looking for a bigger saw for falling larger trees, bucking, and milling. 80cc and up, or something 70cc+ that's modded Stihl, Husky, or McColluch would be preferred. I'm happy with older saws, so long as they are in good condition! My budget is $500, bar included would...

    Want to Sell Vintage Stihl 045AV, 460 Magnum, 066 Magnum, 066

    Here are some Stihl saws that have been stored in a workshop of a neighbor who can no longer use them due to age and injuries. They were put up a few years ago with fuel (non- ethanol) in the tanks and oil in the bar oil tank. I have 1 side plate not shown for the 066 saws. I Don't know...

    Husqvarna 460 Rancher won't get oil to the chain..

    My Husqvarna 460 Rancher, 24" chain, is not letting oil get to the chain. I repaced the metal oiler, the plastic oiler drive gear and the rubber distribution tube, but it didn't make any difference. I have the oiler set to it's highest setting, (turned counter clockwise to its third setting)...

    046 Magnum Air filter and tuning questions.

    Dad's 046 magnum has the original air filter (and everything else) that has never been changed, but he does clean it. Lately he said it's been losing power as he cuts with it. Says it's fine when he starts and then bogs down progressively. He decided he wanted me to put a new carb and filters in...

    50cc high rev Pro or 60cc higher torque for general Farm work

    Hello to all here and thanks for a very informative website. This has probably been done to death before but I have not found a satisfactory answer. TLDR: Should I keep a screaming 50cc high rpm pro saw for farm work, buy a 55/60cc slower rev higher torque workhorse or just stick with my 40cc...

    Stihl MS 460 Oil Leak - not what you may think...

    So my trusty 460 just developed the ol' weeping seepage the other day. I did all the standard things of checking the cap gasket, blowing out the vent hole etc. but it kept doing it...not a lot, but enough to make a mess. Finally in desperation, I started taking things apart to see if there was a...

    Been dying to buy a new saw

    I have an Echo CS-440 and a Husqvarna 345. They're both about 10 years old. The Echo has been great since day one. The Husqvarna just the opposite. It's actually been possibly the worst mechanical thing I've ever owned. Either way I need something bigger. I cut firewood to heat my home so I...

    Sold 3/4 wrap handle, 046, 460, 461

    Hey guys, I bought a new 461R. The 3/4 wrap wasn't for me. Made about 10 cuts before I made the switch to the 1/2 wrap. So it's like new. Make me a decent reasonable offer plus shipping.

    The Stihl Turbo Whistle

    Hey all, Long time lurker, but I never thought my first post would be about this. I hope this is in the right place. If not, someone'll kick me to where I belong, I'm sure. I have 3 Stihls, an MS250, an 026, and just a few months ago, fell into a sweet deal on an MS460. What a whole new world...
