Why are flippy caps hated?

[Slamm]

If you're stiff and clumsy, you have no business operating a saw.

Boy, you sure like laying down the who should and who should not be operating the saw rules.

Go cut some wood under rough conditions, when your tired and wore out, when its wet out, when you accidentally spilled oil or gas on the lids (Oh wait, I know, if you can't properly fill up the saw with fluids you shouldn't be operating it). I like flip caps, I don't mind screw caps. I have saws with either/or. If I need a scrench, I use a scrench, I don't put the saw away, quit work, and go try caps at the dealer to figure out if they will seal properly with a simple twist of the thumb and fore finger.

Awwwwwww don't take Space serious, he's just having fun. Rest assured if he packs that cap in his hiny like I told him he'll be on the pot later on calling a Stihl dealer asking how do you open this thing, I gotta go. I hope he calls me, I'll say try a scrench,:biggrinbounce2::biggrinbounce2::biggrinbounce2:

I dont think he is a dumba$$.....I just dont think it rains in SPACE...

When something wears out, you replace it. It's called maintenance. Furthermore, you'll be hardpressed to find a husky with the tabs worn off. They're a properly designed piece of equipment after all.

when someone overstays their welcome, sometimes they figure it out on their own...

Thats because the Husky caps often outlast the rest of the chainsaw. When Huskies quit running you don't need to mess with the caps much anymore do yah?

Where as, those abused Stihl caps are still on and working fine (albeit with a scrench) decades later. In fact I have yet ever purchase a cap as a replacement or a flip cap for that matter.

I must be operating them properly, as they have been working properly for many years without fail, and I actually use my saws.

Ahahahhaha, I just noticed this thread.

 

[spacemule]

Uhhhhhhh Grasshopper your having entirely too much fun. The most popular cap in America is on the most popular brand in America, Stihl, pack that in your hiny and deal with it,hehe. Seems your proper designed equipment is being shunned and outsold by the mighty what, awww yes, the flippy cap,:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

The most beautiful woman on the planet still has pms. Does that make pms desirable?

Remind me again which of us has to use a tool for gas caps and still ends up leaking. . .

I don't have caps that leak, but I do use a tool for some, because I actually put gas and oil in my saws and they get used, unlike yours. If yours were run have as much as your keyboard, you wouldn't say the dumba$$ things you do about them.

That makes you too stupid to use a screw on correctly.

I will say that even if you don't need a scrench to tighten the cap, you most likely always need it to loosen it. They almost always tighten up after you run the saw.

At first, Space said you need no scrench at all, saying that you have no business running a saw if you need the scrench to put on or remove the cap.

Now he says you need it to remove it but not to tighten it, which I could agree with to a point.

I think it's safe to say he has no experience with a saw besides what he's read in books and on internet websites, but d@m# he's a funny guy.

Makes him cool in my book.

Space, we need a step by step with pics on how to tighten and remove a screw on. We all have the dumb.
