Jonsered 2152 vs 2152C

[mesupra]

Happen to find a NOS Jonsered 2152 yesterday on the dreaded ebay, I am correct in thinking that the 2152 does not have a CAT muffler and the 2152C does come with the CAT?

I have been looking for a 2153 for a little while with no luck and figured the 2152 with a muffler mod would be close enough for me considering I have run a few 353's next to 346 and have not really noticed a huge difference.

I just wanted to make sure of the muffler, figured I would snatch up a NON-Cat if needed.

You are correct; no C means no cat muffler. I have a 2152 and have modded the cat muffler and retuned. Runs GREAT-----wont quite run w/a 346(2153), but not much difference. I love mine!

Thanks for the confirmation. I'm really excited to add it to the collection

Does the C designation on Stihl saws mean the same thing?

 

[mesupra]

Not sure, good question.

I think the c on newer Stihl inbicates that they are m-tronic or have the second safety chain brake feature.
