I think I have 3 or 4 of the 1309 coils in my shop but am currently traveling for work and won't be home until Oct 4 or 5. If you don't find one before then, let me know and I can send one your way for the cost of shipping. I threw one on my two 461s and starting is easy with the retard...

Yep, this is why meth is against the law.

Iron Horse is an idiot and a proven liar. Like full on window lickin, short bus ridin, idiot. He has no clue...

So for the sake of curiosity, I just did this. I only see 1 report in 2018 of problems with a secondhand 261. I see another in 2017, and a few more in 2014, 2015, and 2016. I have a 261c as do a few other family members. The only issue I am aware of are hot re-starts in July/August. But that...

Yes, it is legit. The forbidden forum has a long running thread on it. Some of the guys over there even have some trigger time on one.

Look at the bar tip as well as there appears to be a few things wrong there. The duromatic bars were solid nose, right? And the Stihl RSN bars look nothing like that, not even the wide nose bars. The tip in the photo looks similar to a Sugihara... That smells all kinds of wrong to me.

Hey Daryl, I had a 461 that I couldn't hear 4-stroke, even after installing an unlimited coil. I gutted the muffler (removed the baffle to match my 460) and enlarged the exhaust hole. I can now hear it 4-stroke clearly. Maybe the baffle had an effect on the exhaust note? I have no idea but I...

Hmmm. My wife wouldn't loan out anything in my shop to anyone, especially a neighbor. She wouldn't load one of my saws or other 2 smoke equipment out to anyone on this planet, including my son. Someone wants to borrow a saw or trimmer or any other 2 smoke stuff? Not a problem, but it comes with...

Well, that escalated quickly...

I'm fairly easy to get along with but I wanted to falcon punch that dude a few times. I think I even reported him a time or two, lol.

As I mentioned on the other forbidden forum, I will take the 044 10mm crank, the 044 Mahle cylinder, and the 044 red switch shaft. I will send you PayPal and shipping information tomorrow morning.

I guess I'm missing something. How would running the saw on high idle burn it up if the chain brake was off? I would assume it would just run with the chain spinning. The brake would have to be engaged to generate enough heat to smoke the seal and clutch, yes?

I've never understood why people start their saws with the brake on...

An MS390? Huh? Negative Ghostrider. Get a 261c and don't look back.

The old MSR Pocket Rocket as a patio table top forge trick. Haven't seen that before. You are definitely creative Tom and I always enjoy seeing what pops up in your threads.

Understood. No disagreement on when and where it was created nor why. As said before, I was making an attempt at brevity for the sake of a macro view of the current market condition. Would you prefer that I take a micro approach and teach a doctorate level class in manufacturing concepts? A...

Yup. Better have your finances squared away in low risk investments or better yet, mason jars. We're about to see the greatest loss of wealth in human history.

JIT was implemented in various companies I've worked for going back 25+ years, so I wouldn't call that relatively new. It is a fully matured concept in companies that have their process squared away. I agree that the forces that caused the creation of the JIT concept are not directly related to...

I work for the largest global packaging company (food & pharmaceutical) as a corporate engineering senior manager, which also happens to be one of the largest consumers of polymer based resins. Those resins are post-refining petroleum by-products, sourced via both domestic (CONUS) and global...
