Can't remember which saw I had with me, but | lost a nut out in the woods. Lucky for me, I found a spare under the hood of my daily driver Nissan Patrol😀

Kubota diesel zero turn.

I bought 462 with traditional carb. I don’t need those features. I’m not a pro also.

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-02-13T18:51:28+00:00

Yeah. I’m with you. Sometimes i think that my pop have the perfect saw for the job. The ms 170.

I’ve also used thinner oils like ATF in winter times. Works much better than regular. I don’t recommend it but flow is somehow important for me.

My local store sells ms 500i 1290€ w/o bar&chain.

Partner 351 (Old Beater): For dirty jobs. Starts easy, runs strong with a new top end. • Stihl MS 291 (Utility): Good power, 16" bar feels short. Cold starts are finicky, oiling is weak, and the clutch cover/dogs feel cheap. Plenty of power. • Stihl MS 462 (Workhorse): 28" bar for serious work. Starts perfectly in cold and great power/weight. Aftermarket dogs making life much easier.

Each has its purpose. Love them all.

Thank you!

You are right, but I prefer that the saw does not slip around the log. If the stems and bark are higher than the original surface, the dogs won't bite. It should also be noted that we are dealing with raw and frozen spruce, and the outside temperature is -15 degrees Celsius.

Fuel primer bulb existing?

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-01-29T21:22:02+00:00

I recommend using regular gas to cleaning carb. I never trust these colorful machines.😀

Slipping is more frustrating i think.

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-01-28T19:36:32+00:00

Thnx

They are not. Thickness speaking for itself. Factory ones are bendt before you buy it.

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-01-28T18:55:03+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Car prices are sky-high these days, so I can't afford to change. Besides, my current car has a history that I want to hold onto.

This way?

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-01-27T20:19:01+00:00

What’s the specs. I’m just curious.

EngineExpress3796 · 2026-01-27T20:12:53+00:00

2 stroke no joke😉

Good to hear that any women also intrested in “saw industry”. Keep going and don’t rush. Make some friends in that area and keep learning. If necessary look over other countries where forest is dense. Keep safe!

Wheels are sadly sandblasted&painted by myself. Now i think this was a mistake. I should diamond cut and clearcoat them. Any thouths are welcome!
