Did you miss or read OVER the part that said RUDIMENTARY...I was simply trying to see if the damn thing dropped like a rock or not.....come on man!!!!if you think you are a mechanic you lost all credibility with this post!!! you suck! let me know the shop that hired you so i know not to deal with them!!!
LO phuck'n L, your a 461 virgin yet!!!! you don't even have a valid opinion!
Bin of Dead Stihls
660 FTW
Well, for New Jersey anyway.
That's great, let her brake in, you will love it...
Awwwww, don't worry about westcoaster90, he's just a washed up blowhard from lala land up island, been eating too much garbage out of the logger dump with the black bears.......rotted the last Lil bit of his brain out.....
. So far as no valid opinion on the 461, I have run it enough to know it's a well made saw and also a favorite with a lot of loggers in this area...... ( cracks me up, this coming from a guy who runs a 461 at 16500 rpm and complains it doesn't last as long as he'd like and it hurts his Itty bitty fingers......
A regular Paul Bunyan from how he describes his experiences, except he needs the big blue Ox to haul all his Bulls hit behind him in a giant cart....... legendary!!

I'll take some Carmel corn, or kettle cooked...
Hit the nail on the head. Which is better for an older saw: 038 MAGNUM or a 460
9 tanks of fuel has been ran through it since new piston and rings. It's right about 154psi. It handles that 28 inch bar with rs chain no problem at all. Pulled the muffler cover and things look great. Exhaust side of piston is pristine. Intake side of cylinder is looking really good. Just that one spot where I sanded the transfer off the cylinder is a different " sheen" compared to the rest of the cylinder but it is shrinking in size. I believe it's the rings not seated fully yet on that portion of the cylinder. I'm not worried about it at all, it's running flawlessly and gaining power every tank I put through it. I would be completely satisfied if this was all the power to come out of this saw, but I think there's a little more to gain with a few more tanks. I'm glad it's not sitting on a shelf at the dealer with a repair tag on it waiting for warranty work to get done. I got everything done I wanted to and then some this weekend.
Dual port. I did it not for performance, but to let more heat out of the engine.
Very happy for you man, you got it done!!!
Not butthurt here, merely trolling the troll, seems to be working. So far as handling, is that what you do in your spare time while in the camp dump? - Fondling dead seagulls??? Disgusting!!! Lol.
Nice job, that is within 1psi of where mine was once broken in!! Looks like you have been having some fun
I like Stihl saws, but I have also ran quite a few Husky saws and like them too. My brother has a nice old 266 that runs like a dream.
To me it is more about opposing a know it all rather than anything to really do with saws. You seem to like spouting off all the time, mostly in an offensive manner..... I am merely trying to emulate your behavior in an opposing fashion. Did I hurt your feelings??
Anyways, not sure what you mean about Germans, you are greatly generalizing AGAIN.... and just for the record, ALL of my ancestors are from Sweden. Except one Grandfather from Denmark.
Let the games continue, I am sure we are providing good entertaining content from the amount of popcorn being made.....Lol.
