I do believe Lake mentioned earlier that a modded muffler may reduce performance. You are likely pulling some of your fuel mix out your modded muffler along with that breath of fresh air that second carb input supplies.

So dude.........your muffler modded 441 may not be all it can be!

Hahaha

What do you care Dan...seeing as you don't want anything to do with it!!!:biggrinbounce2:

Too bad you'll never know oh stubborn one!!!

Ain't no big thing to close it back off if I feel like it!!!

It seems that the negative post that keep repeating that the 441 is too heavy and that Stihl made a mistake are completely forgetting that the 441 is an E-Tec design. Not having to fuel as often is well worth the weight.

What are small hand-held engines, 25 - 30 years behind EPA Automobile engines?
Ok this fuel thing is bugging me I can cut one full cord or one face cord with my saw now.
What gains am I going to get with this fuel pinching saw I keep hearing about? also is the bar oil tank larger to compensate for the fuel savings?

You comprehended half of what lake said.
The part you had left out was.
Don't go to big when you do a muffler mod. like 75 to 85% of the opening that we are used to doing now.

You had better wait. Thall has been in there for the past 20 minutes with a picture of a 441.

LOLOL, Tree I thought I seen someones eye in the crack of the door, why you peeping on me? I was just leaving you a deposit, you know the same kind your made of. BTW the way the picture I had in my hand wasn't the saw it was you, look down in the hole, you'll find it,hehe.

Tree lets get real just for once, ok. Fact is you don't give a rip who buys what so why not stop pretending you do. You have been harping and harping and harping over this saw for so long yet the saw has never been in your hands. Now you go running from thread to thread telling anyone that asks about it not to buy one, Tree are you coming unglued or something, you need to chill out. You say I'm selling when in fact I was the one who bought one, if I sold anything I sold it to myself. Yup I paid for it Tree, my own money, not yours so give your "he's just selling a rest". Chill out ole boy I sense a nervous break down on your end and I don't want you passing away on us, your just too much fun.

Finally and foremost I see your a Super Mod now. Cool beans to that. Tree now that your a Super Mod you should look down upon us boys and let us play while you over see. Don't be too quiet though, I enjoy your input and observations.

........Thallus, that is on you! Whatever turns your crank!

Tree you was the one who said I was on the pot holding a picture,lol

As for sales I get paid exactly the same whether I sell a 441, 460, 440 or any other model. I will admit I'm a helluva good salesman Tree, I've put around 2-3 thousand units out there in the past few years so yeah in a way your correct, I'm a selling mother. Tree you hop in your truck and come on up here, I'll show you how its really done and yes you will go home smiling..

Over 20 years as an arborist Shoe.

Just what do you think arborist use to block down large trunks?

You ought to stick with snorting horse farts.LOL

Did anyone else notice Tree got a stripe. Supermod. We know it is in reference to his relationship to us, not saws.

Great post moderator. Do you have anything constructive to add or are you just grinding your axe?

This is a capable saw and there are many more firewood guys here than Arborists like you or Fellers like me. I am not employed as a lumberjack, but the inlaws have a logging operation and I am happy to be lumped in with them.

Can someone answer this?
Just the facts that all I am looking for.
 
TreeCo said:
Fred I wouldn't grind my ax for you.

I would use it dull!:laugh:

Why learn how to sharpen correctly for me. I figure you can do both: sharpen and still use it dull. LOL

Did you run the saw yet Tree?

In my case, they don't. And in any case, you are the only one that cares.... Do us all a favor - go away and buy Husky or Dolmar.

I noticed - A sad day and a demotion all real Moderators... Moderation from Treeco? HA!!!! O.k mods, I like the rest of you!


Little boys often want to grow up to be Policeman or Fireman- Tree just wanted to be a Moderator. Glad his dream came true.

Run your mouse cursor over his 2 green squares - "Treeco must be helpful" :ices_rofl: Maybe helpful in trashing threads!

Wood milage,lolololol, that was funny. Reminds me of this guy who bought a saw from me once, don't even recall the model now. He comes back snorting the dayummm thing burns so much fuel. I asked him how does it run, he says great. I ask him is if cuts good, he says cuts great. I said well ok then how many miles to the gallon is it getting. He gets all tissy and says very funny. I say yup was wasn't it,lol,. Haven't seen him around in a long time.....
