Z Spark Arresting Muffler
 
I think some of those are antiquated at this point.

E.g. Z - spark arresting muffler, unless that means CAT mufflers.
 
Oh yeah, good point.... They literally ALL have that now though, I've noticed when you run serial numbers in SSO.
 
Here is a random piece of Stihl info for y’all - Stihl recently released a new improved fuel filter on the thought that M-tronic doesn’t get along well with gasoline that isn’t 100.0% perfectly clean and pure.

The new ones have a bit of orange plastic included, so you can tell the difference.
