2010年7月4日 · Earlier i posted about needing a "homeowner" saw. I needed to trim trees and cut about a cord a wood a year to heat the house every once in a while. Anyways i got some tax money back unexpectedly last week and decided i would buy my first New Stihl chainsaw. I went to the dealer and i was...

2012年2月6日 · My 1st saw was a McCulloch 3200 14". Loved that thing. Then I was running a Crapsman / Remington 55cc 18" but Stihl full chisel chains killed it. Now I have a MS-271 16" with regular & full chisel chains. I have 20-ish dead oaks due to caterpillar damage that I …

2017年9月9日 · I have the MS 271, while it is a good saw, there are a few things that bother me. The tooless opening of the fuel and oil caps are great, but you need a tool to open the air filter shroud...

2011年12月18日 · I know the 261 is a pro saw and the 271 is a mid range saw. what makes the 261 a pro saw and justifies the $120 diff. in price? I'm new to this site, not a pro, just someone who likes to heat his house with wood and would like to get info from the guys who use the saws. Thanks in advance.

2024年3月23日 · I'm looking to buy my first gas chainsaw. I have an Ego CS1800 which I'm very happy with, but I've recently started getting log-length firewood delivered. It's quickly become apparent that the Ego isn't the right tool for bucking 4-5 cords of 16-28 inch oak each year. In regards to Stihl chainsaws, I'm having some trouble distinguishing what features would be most important, and the the prices ...

2018年8月20日 · Stated complaint: Customer brought in non-running saw, stated it ran fine until it died mid cut. Would not restart. Customer claims it is a carburetor issue. Initial visual exam and test run: Unit looks to be clean, well cared for. Engine pulls over fine; piston is not frozen, compression feels...

2022年7月25日 · I have a 20" bar on my Stihl MS 271, with a Granberg Alaskan Mill. This combo barely allows me to set the mill 16" wide (not deep), and I've had to babysit the nose-end clamp. I need about another inch so I can use my extension ladder as …

2018年6月23日 · Hello So this is my first saw and yes im green. I love adding more power just to do it and modifying anything. I really want to know if modifying the muffler is worth it or not. Thanks for any help and i getting saw crazy already.

2016年6月8日 · i got a stihl MS 271 that has ran great (~60 hours) for me since buying it used from a dealer. Just days ago in the middle of cutting a ~3' ash on the ground for firewood, the saw bogged and shut down. I'm having a difficult time getting it going again. The carb is hard to identify and remove -...

2015年6月22日 · OK here is my question.I am looking at a new MS 271. My dealer will swap out the safety chain for the RS.But I am being told that there is no carb adjustment on this saw.I find this hard to swallow.IS there any truth to this statement?I want to be able to richen it up on the high and low side...
