    MS 441 Owners: what did yours cost?

    I bought one about a month ago for $809 plus tax with a 25" bar. I actually live in Mississippi and the price is $859 plus tax for the same saw. If you go across the line in Tennessee, it is $809 plus tax. It doesn't make a lot of since, but for some reason, the saws are a little cheaper in...

    Stihl MS441 warranty registration....

    I purchased a Stihl 441 a couple of weeks ago and have a question about the warranty registration. When I purchased the saw, my dealer never gave me any type of warranty registration card. He did, however, ask for my name and address as he was typing something into his computer. I was...

    Stihl Ultra Oil....JASO FB rating

    I know a lot of people on this forum feel that the Stihl Ultra oil is one of the superior oils on the market to run in chainsaws. I was just looking at the back of one of the containers of their oil and at says that it is JASO FB (and API TC/TC+) rated. It is my understanding that the oils...

    Ms362 question

    If you say that a 362 came with a little yellow (orange) screwdriver, would a 441 have come with one also? I purchased a 441 about a week and a half ago and the only thing that came with my saw was a owner's manual and a spark plug wrench. I even asked "is this everything that comes with my...

    Stihl 441....using stihl Ultra Oil mixed 40:1

    I'm not trying to act like I'm some engineer or anything, I am simply trying to make sure that my saw is broken in correctly so that it last as long as possible. I know that on any new engine, it is critical that the rings get broken in so that they seat properly. I know that the more oil that...

    Stihl 441....using stihl Ultra Oil mixed 40:1

    I have a new Stihl 441 that I have mixed up some gas and oil for. Since the saw is brand new, I want to run it a little heavy on oil for the break-in period. I know that Stihl recommends running all saws, even new ones, with a 50:1 gas/oil ratio. I am planning on using a 40:1 ratio for at...

    Husky 372xp(w) its back in Baileys catalogue!

    I don't see any big deal if Bailey's list the saws on their website if you can't order it online. To me, it's no more than looking at Husky's company website to see what saws they make if you can't purchase them online.

    50:1 oil mixing ratio...

    So, if my saw has been set up at the dealership when I bought it, to run on a gas to oil ratio of 50:1 and then I run it on a gas to oil ratio of 40:1 or 45:1, the saw may run too lean? I guess I learn something new everyday. I would have thought that a saw was running to lean when the carb in...

    Stihl 460 replacement...

    Just wondering if anyone knows when the Stihl 460 will be on the chopping block for replacement due to new 2010 EPA requirements. I assume that the 460 is no more compliant with regulations than the 440 was before it was replaced by the 441.

    Husky 372 replacement...

    I know that the Husky 372 has been discontinued. I am wondering if the Husky 576 is the direct replacement or is Husky coming out with a "373" or some other new model?

    Husky 372....getting parts for in the future

    I have located a new Husky 372 at my local dealer. Based on everyone's recommendation, I am thinking that I may need to go ahead and purchase it before it gets sold and I can't find another one. Since I generally take good care of my equiptment, I will probably still have the saw in 15 years...

    50:1 oil mixing ratio...

    I know that most of the saw manufacturers recommend a 50:1 ratio of gas to oil. With the fact that the manufacturers are making their saws run leaner and leaner, I was wondering if there is a downside to making the oil ratio a little lower. I was thinking of mixing a 2.6 oz. bottle of oil to...

    Stihl 441 vs. Husky 576...which one?

    Trying decide between the Stihl 441 and the Husky 576...which is a better saw. After reading several post, it seems like the 441 and 576 are like red-headed step-children when compared to the favored Stihl 440 and Husky 372. Since both the 440 and 372 have been discontinued, I am trying to...

    Stihl 441 vs. Husky 372/576

    I was under the impression that the 441 was better liked than what is coming across from my initial question. I was thinking that the 441 was liked by the Stihl crowd about as well as the 372 by the Husky crowd, but it kinda looks like I was totally wrong. So, is there any thing else not to...

    Stihl 441 vs. Husky 372/576

    After reading post on this forum for several months now, I have come to the conclusion that two of the most popular saws on this forum are the Stihl 441 and the Husky 372. I understand that the 372 is being discontinued very soon, if it hasn't already been. If you look at the Husky website...

    Husky 372 vs. 576....why do people prefer the 372?

    I am wondering why most people on this board seem to prefer the Husky 372 over the 576? I was thinking that the 576 was a newer design. Is it that the 576 hasn't been "proven" like the 372 or is there another reason?
