    An Autotune Husqvarna Model 550 challenge

    I have had a very similar experience with my 550xp. I purchased it from a small shop that repairs utility company chainsaws. He had traded for the saw in as new condition but not running. He assumed the AT was toast. I paid for the saw knowing I had a good chance of being burned. But---- the...

    MS 241?

    Brad ported both my 241 and 261cm--the 241 will keep up with the 261 until the wood goes over 10"-- then the hp of the 261 really shines. But-- on a normal day the 241 gets 50% of the combined run time of all the saws. It's just that good -- and lighter! If I had only one saw I would chose the...

    Hate it when that happens....

    Brad did my 241cm- I did the MM and the 325 full chisel-- just a fun to run saw- smooth and lots of torque. Runs longer on a tank of fuel than I want to wait for a coffee break. This saw gets more run time than any saw I have. Brad can put a smile on your face every time you pull the rope!

    Newest addition 241c-m

    A good deed on your part will not be forgotten on my part. I wish you could run my 241-- it's one of my go 2 saws. 1/3 of every tree I cut is done with the 241. After Brad did his magic it really came alive. It's sure easier on my shoulders and back.

    Newest addition 241c-m

    Yes-- and it took 30 tanks to reach full potential. And it resides in the NOS Stihl case I bought from you! Thanks again.

    Newest addition 241c-m

    You are going to love that saw. If you want to really have some fun send it to brad snelling. My 241 has 195 lb. of comp. & runs 325 full chisel. I call it " The little monster". That will put a smile on your face.

    Stihl MS 241 c-m questions

    I have both a Snellerized 241cm and a Snellerized 261cm and they both have attitudes. You can't tell the difference between them until the wood gets over 10" and then the torque of the 261 really shines. But------ why use a heavier saw to cut all the smaller limbs? My 241 weighs 13.2 lb and the...

    Inside the MS241C

    I received my ported 241 cm from Brad 10 days ago but, it was too muddy to get to the big oak I had planned to test the saw on. The saw is now a little monster for it's size and is really fun to run. I made the decision to go with 325 stihl full chisel chain in anticipation of getting this saw...

    Inside the MS241C

    That's my 241 that Brad just ported and I'm expecting great things from it. I ran it long enough to be impressed with its quick handling, smooth running, and quick throttle response. But I really liked the power it had right out of the box. It will be a little monster for its size. Before I sent...

    My new MS241cm has shipped!

    I picked up the MS241 cm this afternoon and it sure has surprised me. The narrow profile sure is different than the 261 cm. I picked mine up Friday and I'm going to cut this afternoon. I'll let you know what I think of it. I have it ready to cut w/ full fuel and oil. I put it on the scales...

    My new MS241cm has shipped!

    The distributor for Kansas is in Mo. but I don't know the name. I've waited for two years for the 241-- I believe it's light weight and M-tronic carb. will be a winner. It will be great teamed with the 261cm Brad just did for me.

    This saw will be on it's way to Ohio very soon. Then Brad can tell everyone what he thinks.

    My new MS241cm has shipped!

    My local dealer called at "10" this morning to tell me the 241 was in stock and was shipping today. I wonder how many of the AS members are going to buy one. The list price is $550. It should be delivered to me on Friday. I think I'll cut wood this weekend!

    How do you lube your.... Squirrel cage blower?

    Mobil 1 cure The bearings in the motor are bronze and are easily oiled with a hypodermic needle. Buy a hypo. at the local pharmacy-- put a little Mobil 1 oil in the hypo. and slide the needle under the plastic washer next to the shaft. Oil it slowly-- it only takes about 1 cc for each bearing...
