How reliable is the 346xp?

And you leave little doubt which catagory you fall under.

 

[2000ssm6]

they are both very good saws, which one fits you?

Well said!

Thank you, 2002-03 is a bit earlier than I thought.......

Could it be that it feels this way due to the stiffer mounts?

I'm not being sarcastic here, or trying to start the usual argument, but a saw with stiffer mounts has a more solid feel.

Ditto on that, I feel the same thing with the husky 242xpg which is a solid saw but it feels rock solid thanks to it´s rubber mounts that don´t got as much movement in them compared to my 346xpg

Says it all really, probably full of stale fuel. If the fuel over there is anything like here I wouldnt be surprised if it ended up needing a carb.
Not a product failure, but a perfect example of the overpriced crap we are expected to run our saws on

No, not a lick of stale fuel in this on. Carb has been rebuilt, it's squeaky clean in there.
