Hope she runs good for ya, really do. I'm no fan but I don't wish any bad luck on anyone regardless of brand. Keep us updated on that saw, many say its a mean little machine, hope it is and serves ya well...
 
My biggest flaw with it has been the ground wire that is attatched to the on and off switch...It keeps coming off on both saws and I end up having to choke it to turn it off...I haven't figured out a way yet to keep that wire attatched....and as soon as I re-connect it,it comes right back off...But I do love the way it cuts..

Awwwwwwwww thats a minor fix, no biggie. If they clip on just take a pair of needle nose and squeeze the connector and then clip it on, ya need a tighter fit, thats all, but hell who doesn't,LOLOL
 
thank you Thall

thats me also I hope it runs and cuts well.I'm impressed by how it is built
 
I heard the plant hasn't gotten its operating permits yet...it appears the neighbors are complaining about all the vibrations coming from it...

I told you and Manny to quit playing with those things before ya gets hurt.:jawdrop:

What did you expect from a hybrid:censored:
 
I don't think they could keep up in Shreveport:rock:


LOL, your a mean man Mow but funny as hell. All this talk about the Stihl factory in China is kinda amuzing. I recently got the new book out about Andreas Stihl and the company Stihl. Seems this factory deal is China was a hard sell for many at Stihl. The book goes into some great detail about that venture. From what I can gather about it that factory is being put there to tap into that billion people population market there. If you really think about it thats one HUGE market to tap into. Stihl the company is always on the move and can you imagine the money that market is going to pull in, unreal. Can never say Stihl sits on the fence and watches, thats for dayumm sure..
 
You aren't picking a fight at all Mike, I think, as well something is wrong.
PM you're addy and I will pay shipping, and time, both ways! Made the same offer to Ben Walker, no love there I guess.
Fix it, impress me, please!!!!

Hmmm this could be a challenge.
I have to think about this,
The saw was pretty new when Ultra got it, He said it did not run good,
Then you got it did some porting on it, Said it ran better and was impressed now you say your not so impressed with the saw.
Hmmm, My mind is racing on this challenge.
Ok I have two saws I am working on let me finish them and we can talk.

Ok tap dancer,
That factory is also being put there because of the cheap labor you get out of the billion people.

If you didn't order a E-tech saw, you shouldn't really accept that, I surely wouldn't have......:angry: :angry:

The only thing you have to do to make it an ordinary 346xp, is changing out the muffler, and retune - the dealer really shoud get you one for free, and do the job........
