I finally sold this POS today, It came with a bunch of wrecking stock saws I bought last year..although I don't think It's made by Stihl , looks like Ryobi.

Yeah I always thought the choke thingy at the back was a bit strange.

Yep! far more confusing than flippy caps and It has more vibes than my old Whitehead Logger

Matt 2 XL is my size.

What a coincidence. So is mine

Matt i will tell ya something but keep it to your self,i put 2 tanks of fuel through the 241C today its no good and it has them impossible to use flippy cap thingys.
Dont tell anyone.:msp_sneaky:

The only reason Stihl invented M-Tronic was for better fuel efficiency so that the flippy caps didn't have to get used as much.

Yeah Neil, I read it on AS so it must be true. I have run both (ported and non ported saws) and both make chainsaw noises so it must be true.

Apparently those chainsaw noises can suddenly stop if somebody does bad porting. So I've heard...

I would recommend Matt... I have heard he is pretty handy with a rat tail rasp for all those tight transfers. His array of pricision tools also include a 9" inch grinder for base cutting and a powerful Aldi's die grinder for smoothing out everything else.

Bloody hell Rudy. That was a secret between you and me. Now every bastard will want a saw ported...

is he capable of using such tooling.

As if I'd tell you Neil after you stole my shipment of Chinese race chains...

I think that is just a flip up piece to aid in grip. They are still a threaded cap.

 

[Stihlman441]

Nice try
Its a cap
It flips up
= flippy cap.

Dear Rick.

I ride solo when it comes to saw choice.
Regards,
Matt

Solo eh ?

and here I was had you pegged as a Husky/Dolmar fella, didn't realise you held a candle for Solo too.

Solo, the other other German saw.

I'm surprised you didn't think I was actually RIDING a Solo.

'tis indeed.
Backwards compatible with all Husky caps

Nice try at justifying PPE Andrew










(PPE=Piss Poor Engineering )

 

[tdi-rick]

I nearly went searching for that really suss photo of young Bradley riding that 7900 with the HD filter hood and photoshopping your mug on it

 

[Stihlman441]

Hang on if the Stihl flippys are PPE how come Husky went the same way.

Can you retrofit a Stihl flippy on an older saw ?

Nope.

Can you thread a new Husky cap with the flip up handle onto an older Husky, or for that matter a Dolmar/Makita ?

Yep.

Screw thread=Tried and trusted design

1/4 turn fastener with unpredictable sealing AKA a Stihl flippy=PPE

 

[Stihlman441]

I give up ya cant help some people.:msp_smile:

 

[gmax]

Both Husky and Stihl should forget about inventing new fuel caps and put decent air filters on ALL their pro saws... now that would be a real improvement

 

[Stihlman441]

Whats wrong with the HD2 filters,there the only ones that work.

Hey don't forget the Dolmar HD setups!!! Crikey you one eyed Stihl....

 

[gmax]

Nothing at all, but is it available for the 362?

 

[tdi-rick]

Whats wrong with the HD2 filters,there the only ones that work.

Wayne's saying they need them on ALL their pro saws

Just like I reckon any 64/73/7900 sold here should have the HD filter as standard.
That's the only real problem with the good old DCS9010, the flocked filter just isn't up to snuff for firewood/dead timber cutting.
