Bought from a tree guy who has a bunch of stihls (ms200s to 660s) everything in between and multiples of them. He took good care of the Saws, this one had a lean failure from a bad pto seal. Both were replaced.Great score! Where did you get it from? The reason I ask is what smoked the original top end? Would hate to have it happen again.
Yup this will be the.middle of my stihl 3 saw plan. 026, 361, 440 magnum. One of many 3 saw plansSweet! I really like my 361. Just perfect for all the "bigger" stuff I do that I can't get with the 026.
Yeah, I want to get a 440 and/or 460. The 660 is bigger than I'll probably ever really need and it sucks the fuel down pretty quick. I think a 460 with a 28" would be perfect. 026 w/16" bar, 361 w/20" bar, 460 w/28-30" bar would probably be my preferred set-up I think. The last time I used the 660 was to rip some logs into pieces small enough to get up onto the log splitter.
welllllllllllllyouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu suck;O))I picked up a 361 about a year ago from a pawn shop that still had the original tank of gas in it. got it for 300. saw looked like it never touched wood. extremely good price for a practically new saw.
Joe, Nice 361.
Gritz it sounds like a 461 might be a good compromise as it is 460 weight and just short of 660 power. I have not run a 461 but have had several 460, 066, 660 and 064s. Which by the way would be another great choice.
Right now my wife's uncle is borrowing my 361 to clear out some timber on his property.
I let a good friend borrow my ms361.....I sure do miss that saw it came back in such bad condition I sold it.I will "never" lend out a saw again.
