MS 241 "anomalies"

[Franny K]

i htought I read something about a rim kit that was avail for the 241?Yes/ No?

Stihl has a mini spline kit but to get six teeth you need stay with the stock spur.
I suspect Oregon has a rim kit for small spline but no dedicated picco sprockets exist.

You are right, as far as I know, although "pin style" picco rims for the small spline drums have been made by at at least Danzco in the past.

Yeah, that's what I had heard, too. This was a 6 tooth spur. Kinda disappointing. Wish they had spent the money for the decomp on a second bar stud and a rim sprocket...

^^^^^This saw previously had just been a smaller 026/260 but both saws take regular bars. The 241 is a separate design that runs mini stihl mount, May explain 1 bar nut thing better

I switched my 024 to 3/8 picco since I like the 241 so much with PS. I did the 024 conversion to a picco rim kit, 8 pin runs 61 DL and 7 pin runs 60 DL. I know the 8 pin is stretching that small saw's torque thin. But I'm only running a 16" bar and narrower kerf than stock

No primer on my 241

Definitely no primer on my 241. I dont even see where that was said above

Only the MS 241 C-BEM version has a primer bulb on the side.
