Thanks man everyone should come over my house for a chainsaw meet lol. I have lots of wood on the ground. I will have fun with the new 361 getting it cut up though.
sucks to be you, for once we get something better here in canada, even if it cost almost twice as much
Are you going to break yours in any certain way or just give it hell? This is the first new chainsaw i have bought. I was going to take it easy for the first three tanks of gas, like the manuel says. Wondering if there was anything else i should know??
Most dealers and loggers here say run them WOT (wide open throttle), and do not let up. They are designed to run best running WOT. I babied mine for about 2 tanks, then could not resist and just let it rip. I eased up on levering it hard and bogging it down though.
Yep, really sucks the big weenie.
Cost me $32 for a DP muffler cover for it from Stihl. :greenchainsaw:
Yes, meant to say, fuel and oil caps and chain tensioner.
I see where the online sight lists the 361 Magnum...is it really just an added decal? Has anyone priced one of these? I asked a dealer today about them. H e claimed to have heard of them, but did not know what the difference was compared to MS361. I am getting ready to buy a 361, so want am trying to find out the scoop. ALso what do you Stihl owners think about the new tool-less fuel and chain tighter models? Worthwhile or just something to go wrong?

Coonhunter dont worry you got a good one im sure. I think the newer one is going to be heavier anyway the 362. I also want to know how to tell the build date tho.
JJ,
How much of a warranty did you get? what size bar did you get and are you considering a muffler mod?
Mine don't say MAGNUM but my condums do!:hmm3grin2orange:
But all kidding aside open that muffler up and let her breathe!
