Crappy Stihl Cylinder - Looks like ChiCom Garbage!!!

[Fastcast]

Whatcha think of Brads work there Fast, come on I'm dying to hear it,LOLOL

Here I thought we were talking about Stihl's ethics and workmanship but I'll proceed now to answer your question, to my question.

I think Brad is an enthusiast, who calls them like he sees them. I believe he likes saws, period, not just one brand of saw. Brad has a stable of Stihls that he also brags about regularly so to insinuate he's just a Stihl basher does say a lot about your bias opinions.

Brad has no allegiance to one brand or the other, like you do, for obvious reason. I personally commend him for speaking out when sees crap he doesn't like. Unlike you who wants to sweep it under the rug and change topics and answer questions with more questions.

Wether he made a mistake on that tear down is irrelevant to me. A sure way to learn, is screw up so you know what you've done wrong. He's learning, we are all learning everyday. It still doesn't speak well of the steel being used or the cheesie rod.

There you have it and remember you asked my opinion.

Its already stopped Joat. The huge fan club is now scratching thier heads wondering man that guy can't remove a piston and he's a authority on quality, hmmmmmmmmmm, what the hell did we fall for.

Sad lesson learned. Be carefull of stones that you throw, you know that song Joat, good one and true...

Tommie,

Well, throw another dog on the woodie. I mean another log on the woodpile. There's a spark down there and they'll fan the flames with their keyboards and their lips and we'll see a few more attempts to discredit Stihl and The Champ.

Pop open a cool Pepsi, sit back and enjoy. You earned it.

Booker when the paying customers start complaining there is a issue Stihl will, like they always have, will striaghten it out. Saw building is fun, its a hobby but its so small the manufactures could care less what they think, in fact they despised that practice all together. Thats a well known fact the saw builders will not dare tell anyone. 4 builders opinions verses the entire buying population, get real Booker, even Tony Soprano would laff his azz off,LOLOL

Wasn't Tony Soprano a crook. So you saying Steals a LMAO

I like this saying, "Mess with the bull, ya get the horns". This thread was doomed from the start, finally done now.:hmm3grin2orange:

I wonder if 2009 will be another record sales mark for Stihl?

Done? Calling something done, and having it be over, are two separate things.

We wouldn't have gotten near to two-thirds of a thousand posts on this thread had you and Tommy not tried to defend that which has no reputable defense.

Wonder when all these cylinders will start failing...

I wonder who stands behinds the modded saws when they come unwound at 15k, I wouldn't want one if my lively hood depended on it. I bet my muffler modded only 361 will be running long after the heavily modded 361 pushing 15k gives up the ghost. Although I have a lathe and a mill and am quite proficient in running both, I won't touch the internals of a saw other than muffler modding and playing with a junk saw that I don't give a crap if it blows or not. We have to use our saws on a daily basis on the farm and cutting wood for income supplement during the winter. If they run, cut and have no durability issues they get the job done, I'm sure not pulling a cylinder off to just look at it. I'm not dedicated to any brand, I run the JD (efco) saw as much as any and can't wait to get the old dolmar up and going.
I bet any good stihl dealer or husky dealer would stand behind their product if the cylinder posted was found to be the cause of a saw failure, I know the dealer I have used for thirty years wouldn't even hesitate. I doubt Brad would send me a new saw if I had one he modded suffered catastrophic failure after four of five tanks of gas, that's the difference. Modded saws have their place, it's for those that tinker, race and like cutting cookies against a stopwatch, even for faller that don't care about longevity, just having the baddest saw in the woods, with today's machining and casting technology it would be easy for Stihl or Husky to duplicate saw builders tricks on the assembly line, but then they have the epa to answer for and the customer who wants reliability and dependability of a saw operating in the design range.

Meanwhile Tommie, you'll keep getting worked like a part-time job here...

I believe the reason ya'll boys are so tore up is that all these cylinders were made in 2008, according to booker. 2008 was Stihl's best year for sales while husky dropped. Now you tell me if this were a big problem, would it show in sales?

Quality goes down but sales fly up?

Eventually...yes.

Remember...way back when, the Big Three were some of the most respected auto manufacturers in the world.

Then they took their eyes off of quality...

Well until that day, you stay in your dark hole and come up with something better than a few cylinders that "look bad".
