"...and on the seventh day God created..."

[Throwback Man]

:chainsawguy:...and on the seventh day, God created the Husqvarna 346XP so that man could trim the trees and grin from ear to ear.

I learned today that God uses FedEx to deliver gifts onto man. I was seated in the porcelian office with a cup of coffee when the doorbell rang -could it be here? I waited listening...my son came bounding up the stairs exclaiming: "Dad, Dad, you saw here!" Life is good! Check out the photo -ironic how my son managed to get in the picture; someday it will become his.uttahere2:

And later on in the 7th day god created Stihl to whip Huskys butt!

The 346 is one Husky that no one has bettered yet. It set the standard how many years ago now, and the latest offerings from other manufactures still cannot best it. I'm happy to see that you have a proper understanding of it's value Mod the muffler, ditch the rev limited coil, and you'll have one fine little saw!

Tell that to my poor 028 that got it's butt kicked by sunfish's 346 a couple weeks ago...:msp_thumbdn:

The MS261 is basically on par with the 346XP, but I still prefer the Husky, enough so that I traded off my MS261.

Croak!...Croak!!...
You traded off the 261 you spent sooo much effort into doing the porting mods on...???
I thought you really liked that saw...maybe the 346XP just got to be too much??

Whoa!! I think I'm bleeding creamsicle blood..!! Never saw this day coming!!!

Pretty sure he took the seventh day off.

Unless you bought it from a good and reliable dealer, make sure the carb is adjusted properly! :msp_smile:

Oh!!... The way I got the story was that later in the day God created the Jonsered 2153 and said "all is well!"

A very nice package Throwback Man.

All was not lost in getting rid of it. I needed the saw to crack the code if I was going to port them for others. I did really like it, and still do. I just prefer the 346XP. That's all. I was laid off for 4 1/2 months and used it as fodder for the 372 I built for the build-off.

macDonalds makes the best hambugers too !!
get sucked into the hype and be just another lemming ..
there are 20 yr old 50cc saws still runing that will eat a 346..
the wheel has not been re-invented..
all this 346 crap makes me want to PUKE !!

Much thanks for reply!! I had followed your new strato port thread.
Strategy trial and error...and bought a new cylinder to get it right!!
That's why my Croak!!...LOL!!
Nothing but respect here for great job very well done and great pics!!

I guess let the competitors at the build-off be forewarned!!!!!!

Do tell!!

It is an awesome saw really. Just all the hoo-pla around here gets a little too repetitive IMO.

OP: you have a great saw there bud, but remember: On the seventh, he created the Dolmar 7900.

Nothing happened to the cylinder. You must be thinking of the original carb, which I ruined.
