Am i wrong or isn't the arrow on a stihl piston supposed to point toward the muffler? Another guy down my street who mainly works on older saws, on occasion, came over the other day and we were talking saws ( with beer. ) and he saids that he thought on the stihl saw the arrow on the piston pointed toward the intake or carb with the B toward the flywheel. I quickly told him it was the other way around and that if he tried this, it would fry the piston/cylinder in quick order. Now i am questioning myself. Help again.

Arrow is for direction of air flow...

Comes in the intake and out the exhaust. You were right. Stick to your guns when you need them most!
