I guess I'm the only one that can see sarcasm......

Ahem! I do not believe you are the only one. I have been told on occasion that I have a tendency to be slightly sarcastic.
To which I reply, "Whatever".

Maybe their greasy hat is covering their eyes?

pretty sure Cale is a Dolmar dealer...so it might be a while before he gets you all the Stihl parts you need.

might help some if you get a list of all the part numbers as well as the recent bulletin updates and any revisions as well.

and here's a smiley fer yer troubles

Couple years back Carl got a saw in that needed to be tuned.
In the end it locked up while tuning, tank had just gas, no oil.
Well the customer had NO clue about mixing oil and had been running the saw for a couple years on regular gas.

Was Carl by chance a Slick-50 salesman?

I'm just saying what happened. Don't believe it, I don't care, but don't be rude!

I had a worker last year run my 460 Stihl almost a whole week on regular gas. Several gallons. It's still running fine and makes 160psi... somehow!

that being said, we get many straight gassed saws in for repairs that it only took a tank or less of no oil gas to ruin the piston and cylinder.

I use good oil, maybe that helps, I dunno.

So you are telling us a saw ran for a "couple of years" on regular gas? Are you an idiot and do you think we are idiots (to believe something like that)?

If ya run out of mix oil, you can spit in the gas tank when ya refill. Works great...

I tried to keep a open mind when the guy post. But the BS meter is pegged.
