First impression of the Stihl 241c

Was going to say that's not the same saw. You can see the similar DNA but different.
anyone know how to hook up the 241 to a laptop? i think i read somewhere that it can be done. i jokingly ask my stihl mechanic how he was going to work on the m-tronic saw since they don't uses computers. (horse and buggy mennonites) he said they had gotten the software from Stihl but it's just sitting in the box.
I'd assume that with the software comes a pigtail to hook it up.
Email Stihl and ask a tech.
Add me to the list, picked up a 241c this am and ran her a bit this afternoon. Figure it will round out my 3 saw plan very well. So far I'm super impressed and I'm sure like my 362c it will get better around 4/5 tanks thru her. I did go down to a 14" bar as many have said that's where she shines.
461 is stupid good
661 is a different animal
241c just makes me smile and laugh at what it can eat up. It's going to be interesting to see how often I run this as my 362 now 461 (sold my 362 for the 461) have been my go to saws.

I changed out the original sparkplug last weekend after a years worth of running , took the spark screen out and opened up the hole with a 1/2" carbide burr , sure woke it up 
The best part about the muffler mod is that there is no need to try and fab up some sort of deflector , the muffler still looks completely stock and a spark screen could easily be made to fit over the modified hole .
I was going to do that and add the Snelling gills on the mag side when I do mine.
Trying to get some guys together this spring to run the various 40-45 cc saws against each other so I have a baseline from which to do the muffler mods.

Sadly, my 241 hasn't seen much run time since I started this thread. Its sitting all by itself while the big boys get to play with real wood.
that's a good problem to have.
Well , if you read what he said , sharp chain and muffler mod was were it was at so I have , he was right
Gonna go for the extra 4% and sand all the paint off the bar next ....

Umm , you suck ...
I mean that in a kind and most respectful way , really ....
just about ready to put a new chain on the 241. might have another sharpening or 2 but i may have some serious sawing with @James Miller and a new chain will be nice. the saw has been awesome since day 1. thanks to all of you enablers for talking me into this saw.
Widow in front of us lost a 40' or so norway spruce during the wind event 2 days ago. 241 is going to get some love tomorrow.
Didn't even get a full tank through it.

Now have you ever had a limbing saw as nice as that 241?Didn't even get a full tank through it.

Had a 200t at one point. That was my favorite.
I cut that entire tree with the 241. Less than a tank of fuel.

The 241 is better for limbing and light ground work I have plenty of 200T's and I much prefer the 241 C for that . Why didn't you keep the T?
