Isn't the 441 a quad port cylinder also?
372's don't hold up stock.
Correct me if I am wrong.....the crank bearing trouble is more to do with the x toque saws. The non x torque are as trouble free as any saw to my knowledge.
It's an occasional problem on the older one's too. I have a 2171 I'm putting a crank in now. The big end rod bearing was shot. I think it was Jacob J that said the 372 is one saw that would benefit from more oil, as in 32:1 mix. Please correct me if I quoted him wrong there.
Huskies lose bolts, Stihl air filter setup doesn't stay as clean and the av on stihls aren't as nice. I've rebuilt both brands with new cranks.
The 460 is more solid feeling. 372 is more comfortable. Both will last a long time with good maintenance. It will be a toss up on which is faster between stock saws with the chain and tune probably making up the difference.
The 372 and 385/390 are both saw families that benefit from extra oil. It seems like the saws ran with longer bars out west in production settings will give up sooner.
Awesome..I posted a video earlier today...First time making a video. I'm gonna try to make a better one tomorrow.Hows that 346 Rocket?
A lot of knuckleheads run their drags to low.....Not helping with the bearings....Seems to be an issue with the 460's as well. Any saw for that matter. The correct File-o-plate is a crank bearing's best friend.
