A week short of five years old, and the starter still works like new. If the battery ever fails, I'd spend up to $200 to replace. The system really is that good! Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Years ago I ordered the 562XPW kit from husqy for my 550XPG. The bolt holes are off slightly, I never mounted it. I think it was around $30. I recently dropped my MS 260 PRO (with double big dawgs) and cracked the handle. Now the Husqy is getting some use, and I cant stand the flimsy single...

I pulled my BR 450 C-EF out on Sunday, and this time I thought for sure that the battery would have suffered some self discharge from being laid dormant the past six months. Nope, three start cycles and it fired right up. I'm certainly impressed with the durability of this blower. It sure...

Just saw this message. Most stihl now has momentary kill switches, one touch and they will stop. Switch then spring returns to the run position. On my SH 86 C, the kill is easy to activate when coming off high throttle lock. The detent to kill on the BG 450 C is a bit stronger, so I have not...

I pulled my BR 450 C-EF out last night for the first time in six months. I thought for sure the battery would have suffered some self discharge, and I would have to manually start it. Nope, three cranks of the electric starter and it was back in action, just like any other in season cold start.

Yes, I've done it on 2 550xpat and a 2253. I've cut the MS 180 C-B shorter. It would be nice to have an assortment of different spring rates to choose from for tuning saws.

My '12 MS 441 R C-M (no muffler mod) was doing the same thing. Out of your checklist, the only thing I tried was to alter the free air opening timing. It made the saw return to idle poorly, so I put it back. I had the selling dealer install a new carb, didn't help. I used my pwc mikuni sbn...

You are missing the point. The BR 450 C-EF does the trick, the wife will pick it up and go. Not so with the other rope start ope. Now all my leafs are blowed, and I didn't have to do a thing.

Just bought one today. It is freaking sweet. I think it blows as good as my BR 600, pre magnum, and the electric start is so nice. The telescopic blower tube is pretty cool too. Definitely worth the $50 and two pounds penalty.

Cracked intake boot flexing with handles?

Too many ads on photo bucket. I'm sure your saw is nice.

08S. 1965-1994 Holy Cow!

I must have been away too long. What is a MS 261 hybrid?

I'll bet you husqy lovers really appreciate how the chain just slips right on.

Better not piss rev your saws when you get them back together. The piston will rock back and forth too quickly.

I've yet to see a decent "Large" Dealer. Small Outdoor Power Equipment shops are the best. Sun Valley still open? How about Marsh? Grand Blanc aint too bad. Sloan's is the best though.

The air vane is hooked to the choke on an 08, likely the 07 is similar. Best to tune the H screw while in the cut. On that old dog, too rich is just fine.

Yes, the cheesy leaky air filters and poulan style ratchet starters are soo much better? I think you are the one with flimsy blinders...
