Newest addition 241c-m

[SAWMIKAZE]

That said id still take a 241 , old saws are cool dont get me wrong and im not really a big technology guy but when it comes to saws its a great thing in my eyes , i like the 044 , 064 , 066 etc but they are dinosaurs with ****** filtration and a/v etc etc , id take the 241 for its filtration set up alone !

So a 444 is an echo?

 

[SAWMIKAZE]

Its a junky old husky

 

[KG441c]

Ya Im with u on the old saws! My ported 026 I just sold would blow my 241 away but for the size wood I cut with the 241 there is more to appreciate with the 241. With the rakers lowered on Pm picco the 241 cuts pretty aggressively and stays sharp

I dont know Mike im rebuilding a husky 262xp right now and I have to admit Im impressed with the build quality

 

[SAWMIKAZE]

I didnt buy a 241 with the intention of bucking logs so i guess its all in what you expect it to do , i bought it to limb , cut saplings and **** like that and i think its awesome for those things but the price is absurd..awesome saw though..if a 543 had AT i probably would have bought it instead.

And that puppy is pushing out 225psi. Down from 240 where it was detonating on 94 octane

Anywho, this is gonna be a difficult post for me to write. I went ahead and literally raped the factory port like you did, and even whirly gigged a little bit of the baffle away.
I then reset it as per yer instructions. And POW(Is there a "POW" image thingy? Anyways...) this thing came way alive. Revs out fast and hard and high now. And she cuts with even more torque. Loud as hell for a 43cc saw, tho. Ah well. So, I won't be bothering to port it(especially with the missing fins... )

 

[KG441c]

Wow!! Nice! Ya I whirled my inner baffle also ! Lol! I figure with more cutting time and the mtronics learning curve it will do alil better even

 

[SAWMIKAZE]

Keith is there an advantage to recalibrate mine..the muffler was modded before i even fueled it so im assuming it broke in to that configuration ?

 

[KG441c]

How did u get the 444 to blow 240psi?? Wow!! Id like to hear how much come out of the dome? Base cut? Base gasket or not?

 

[KG441c]

Not sure Ryan but it surely couldnt hurt but it probably has learned its curve if u cut with it enough? Kinda like retuning a standard carb after u muffler mod

I always calibrate my mtronics saws if I change anything major. Guess it clears the memory and starts over??

Used a piston from a 346xpOE. NMurph was kind enough to send me one free of charge as he was practicing at the time, and I was rather poor working part time in forestry. It had way too much meat on top as it arrived. It was 240 PSI AFTER I took a dremel and some fine sand paper to it. I then reshaped the piston to fit the combustion chamber by hand(I used to make knives as a hobby, so working with metal is a good time). That 444SE won first place at the PNW GTG last June When that thing is leaned out, it is a weapon, even with 3/8 chain.

 

[blsnelling]

Just port that thing already

Stihl MS241C Ported:

 

[SAWMIKAZE]

Mine has had no changes in fuel or anything so i guess its fine , it broke in around the muffler mod and runs awesome.

 

[maulhead]

So is this now the official what did you do with your 241c OR to your 241c today,,, thread??

 

[KG441c]
