My 241C takes the small 10 mm plug like yours. That plug fits the 4 stroke Stihls .

thanks LW. was hoping i didn't get a saw that was made on a Friday.
I was surprised when I went to do a compression test.thanks LW. was hoping i didn't get a saw that was made on a Friday.
It's a good thing you guys brought that up , I'd best check my screnches to make sure I have a 10 mm .
Might not have one if the dealer just grabbed one out of a drawer and handed it to me with the saw .

The ten MM is the tread diam of the plug . Just use metric deep drive sockets.
Hex size the same ?
Correct me if I'm wrong but if the thread diameter, reach, and heat range are the same the plug will work?
Don't they make identical plugs but with different size hex dimensions? With the smaller ones for tight clearance applications?

I could be dead wrong. But I thought I've seen plugs that were identical except for one letter different they I thought designated the hex size.
found this on plug conversions. because inquiring minds want to know. typed in the NGK plug for the 241.

Cool.
I had a couple of large pdf files on my old work computer with loads of spark plug info. Will have to see if I can find them again.
As a word of caution, cross references aren't always perfect so be sure to check electrode color after changing to a new brand.
^^^^ i'll probably stick to the NGK since i'm sure that's what my dealer stocks. i get my Bosch plugs there too for all my other saws.
You know plugs seem to last forever if the saw is not all fouled up.
yes usually no problems but if a saw starts acting up that's one of the first places i go. ever since bosch started making plugs in china instead of brazil i have had a few more problems.
I've only had a couple plugs actually fail over the years. I normally stick to NGK but have a few Champion and a Bosch or two floating around as well.
Tree monkey posted a while back that older plugs take more energy to fire and should be replaced every so often. Makes a lot of sense to me.

No, sorry.
My 241 has an NGK cmr6h plug. Not the same as what they sold me. Guess I'll have to rectify that.

OK, since we have people painting Ryobi on their Stihl, what if it really was a 40cc Ryobi? 18" bar full bar in ash, close to 12k in the fattest part:
Yesterday the sprocket tip on that beat old bar blew up, so it has a 16" back on it again.
