Run away and find a real Stihl dealer...

"Anymore"?..............He shouldve said "Yet"

Either way.....he's pullin your center member

Don't feel to bad, you can't find Husky parts on the shelf here either. We have outstanding Stihl dealers that would have those parts to you in a jiffy.

Maybe, but first make sure there wasn't a miscommunication, and the dealer was talking about the 041.....

Could indeed be a good explanation...

"Plastics for a Four-Forty-One" sounds a lot like "Plastics for a Oh-Forty-One"

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

But what was plastic on a 041? That should have raised a question.

We don't really know if the word plastic was used in the conversation, do we?

I just went and ordered parts for a 21 year old saw Monday at local saw shop and there here today (new old stock); they wanted new parts for there saw

Pull your pants back up, clutch your wallet tight, and find another dealer. :cool2:

 

[bluestripes]

Lets hope they thought you meant 041 i would find another dealer if not.

Air filter cover on an 041 Farmboss.......

I think this is a communication error like saw troll stated.

441 and 041 especially over the phone are easily screwed up.

Either way the parts you're looking for your saw are available, but it's understandable if the
dealer didn't have them in stock.

I'd call them back and double check if they understood MS441, and not 041.
If they still give you the same answer, GTFO.

The parts I'm picking up here this afternoon were below (price) what you see on freebay (used parts) and were new old stock Stihl Parts :msp_smile:
