I Just burnt up my 20 year old poulan 2000 and decided to move on to a 361. wondering if anyone has an openion?
I was thinking about the 18" i want to be able to use it as an all purpose saw, falling, limbing, and cutting.
id run 20" ES bar aswell. and yes make danged sure you grease the sprocket tip if you can find a place to grease it.:bang:umpkin2:
i dont grease anything even if they have spot to grease them, i havent had any troube in 12 or so cord this season
There isn't a grease hole on stihl bars. I always wondered why but i've never ruined one because of it either.
The local Stihl distributor head technical guy taught a chainsaw repair class for beginners at our local county extension back in June. He was saying Stihl found people would push sawdust and dirt into the sprocket along with the new grease, causing premature failure. The new design with no hole is supposed to be much more reliable than the old one.
I caught CAD at that darn class!
