Stihlmans Wood,Tree cutting ramblings...........

Yes, its me Andrew. Yeah you can always clean them but they never quite have that gleaming look of a new saw do they.
I guess the new saws would have been a lot cheaper in the States but postage is a bit of a bummer though.
Man Stihl or Husky gear and parts are expensive here compared to over there. Dont blame you getting them from the States.
Cheers

OUCH!!! I wonder why such a drastic price difference?

We wonder why as well ?.

I have been having a bit of a play with the stock 441CRMTronic and did a muff modd.
Second tank of fuel.

[deye223]

it might be stock but i reckon it'll scare the crap out of a 460

 

[Stihlman441]

The 460 may be a little quicker but thats the only thing thats better about it compared to the 441C.:msp_wink:

 

[deye223]

For those of you wondering how i did the muff modd.

 

[Adam_MA]

that sure opened her up!

Muffler Mod

Looks like you have opened it up a fair amount Andrew.
Do you know what size your exhaust port is as the rule of thumb is 85 % of the port opening ?

 

[Stihlman441]

I opened it up the same as my other ported 441C Sawzilla,this one is going to be ported as well.

 

[Stihlman441]

I have a bit on latterly trimming plantations so they can remove and replace fencing got to do both sides and there must be about 4 or 5 kms of them,the 261 with an 18'' is not the saw for the job have got a 241CM with a 14'' coming that will make things a bit easier.:msp_smile:

 

[Stihlman441]

This may interest some.
The saw on the left is a ported 441CMTronic with about 40 tanks of fuel through it.
The saw on the right is a stock 441CMTronic with 2 tanks of fuel through it.
Both saws have been run on the same fuel BP Premium 95 and Mobil 1 2T oil at 40:1.
Look at the colour of the muffs,the stock saw is definitely running hotter.
I took the muff screw bungs out to do muff modd when i noticed the colour difference.
