Crappy Stihl Cylinder - Looks like ChiCom Garbage!!!

[bookerdog]

If it runs good, nope, going to leave it be. Are you going to check all your husky cylinders?

ya there all checked before there modded.

:agree2:

Right it was a mistake it left. Steal's was a decision to make the cylinders in brasil.

Have I mentioned anywhere that this was not a mistake on Stihl's end????

So a bad casting would be moot?

An honest mistake made right is acceptable, a bad decision is not.

Same thing homelite said.

Remind me again why husky dropped net sales for the 1,000th time?

no it wasn't steals mistake it was there decision to put it in there pro saws.

Because they stopped sales when they ran out of Mahle cylinders while Stihl swapped out for junk

True, and every brand makes bad decisions, lets hope Stihl pays alittle more attention in the future.

No, they stopped to get back into dealer only and help save what little shops they have around. Their box store and net sales sell out hurt the name pretty bad. I'm all for dealer only, any brand.

That's your pride and joy ya know the company we also have to have our noses rubbed in on regular bases by you and a few others, how they're far superior in quality, engineering and of course sales and this is why people will pay extra for Stihl....Well I guessit looks like they're losing that so called edge you're always bragging about and you're trying to cover your trail like a 12 year old school boy.

{snip}

...you're squirming, trying to cover for this crap Stihl is putting out on pro saws......How long have you really known about this?

Tom, what Fast has said here is spot-on.

Now...here's the thing: I goofed last night with all the 'fall on your sword' stuff. Why? Because indirectly, Stihl pays your bills. And you should never mess with a man's livelihood. (Unless it's funny, and you think you can get away with it.) So thinking you're going to admit to Stihl's goof here is a little foolish on my part. I'll admit that.

And I know you and 2K really think you got one over on me by highlighting my ignorance when it comes to saw-building. But I'll readily admit to that...I couldn't take apart one of my own saws with a grenade. (But if you need some hand-cut, half-blind dovetails, or if you need someone to bat to right with men on first and second...I'm your man.) Just like I said with software, though...you don't need to be a programmer to spot crappy code. The proof is in the pudding.

I just want to see less...less squirming is all. You and 2K are running around the fact that Stihl is being a little unethical here, and there's no getting around that fact. And if you don't believe me, since I don't wrench, and can't possibly know what I'm talking about...well...listen to the dozens of other self-professed Stihl fans who've said the same thing.

And keep in mind...in the future, when you and 2K start going on and on about Stihl's quality and ethics...well I'm just likely to be there.

We both said it didn't look good. On a serious note, If you ever need help wrenching on a saw, give me a holla and I'll try help as much as I can.

Hey Woodie, I prefer you send it to me. I don't want you to get a saw back from 2K with baby making juice on the pretty red and black.
