A Few Stihl Questions

[2dogs]

1. What parts (and numbers) do I need to change to stiffer buffers on a MS441?

2. Any special tools needed for the above change?

3. What parts do I need to change a 044C to a standard 044? We had a few
C models at the FD. They were not reliable and I like things simple.

4. I would like to change (I think) the stock clutch cover on my MS660 to a full wrap cover. I don't even know if this part is made but am guessing it is. I will need the extended rubber flap too, I hope.


Thanks in advance. My local Stihl shop is very good but ordering parts is much easier when I walk in the door with the part numbers.

You can find the extended clutch covers on Ebay for half the price. They are not OEM, but they look good. Do you have an IPL? PM me, I can send a IPL to your email addy. That should have the Part # for the soft, and stiffer AV mounts.

AV spring set (hard) 1138 007 1003 - $29.95


All you need is a T27 Torx driver.

I just posted thread about 044c You would have to remove the muffler and replace it and probably retune saw. According to Stihl this model had a catalytic converter on it, which probably made it hot, less powerful and less reliable. for more information check my threads. thanx Good LUck

StO, check the date of the last post bf you revive a bunch obsolete threads. if a thread is more than a couple of months old, you might be better off to start you own thread.

Thanks but this IS a two year old thread. BTW the 044C is a POS. A deal came up and fell through for two of these saws. When I was the saw specialist for the fire dept we had nothing but trouble with the 044C. I don't know what I was thinking.

if you don't like that POS ,how much do you want for it?
