    I have had a ms241c now for about 4 years, it's a work horse. Just changed over from an 18" bar to a 14" one, It rips through everything. Super happy with it. Nice Review and break down

    Don, I got a ms241cm last year and it has been a pleasure until Sunday. I had cut off a bunch of stumps off a ground level, which meant I had to clean it, fully, after use. After cleaning and resharpening, I gave it my customary crank. It would not start, period. The first thing I checked was "for spark" and it had what appeared to be spark it not the normal "rat, a tap, tap" sound we normally hear. Regardless, I accepted it as spark. Then I started looking at any fuel related problems and found none. So, I put it in the shop on the shelf and deferred the resolution until the next day. I worked on it for several days but it still would not start. I was about to take it in to a Stihl dealer, since it was still under warranty when I decided to take a look at spark one more time.
    I pulled the boot off the plug and the coil wire an connector came right out of the boot. Then I knew why the spark looked more like St. EMMA'S fire than a clean blue spark.. I squeezed the barb connector back into the coil wire, put a plastic tie around it and connected it to the plug. Bingo, it cranked with one pull. I have since got it back into the boot and reconnected, correctly, but I put another plastic tie in the grove at the end of the boot, so it cannot, easily get out of the boot, again. I will now start with one pull, every time.

    I just bought a MS 461 R and will try it soon. I think I will be glad I didn't get the 661 to replace the 064 that was stolen from me. It has been a long time since I was a tree faller. I am now a senior citizen firewood cutter. Thanks for your videos. I was unable to make my friend's Poulan 4016 run properly by making carb adjustment.

  • @metz12harofreak
    @metz12harofreak 10 лет назад +1

    I have had a question for a while now. This saw being right around 43cc's is a bigger saw but it only has 1 bar nut. I have a small ms 170 and it has 2 bar nuts. Does that chain stay tighter with 2 bar nuts? And why would Stihl put 1 nut on a bigger saw and 2 on a smaller saw? Husqvarna does the same thing.

    • @donyboy73
      @donyboy73  10 лет назад

      my 180 only has one nut

    • @metz12harofreak
      @metz12harofreak 10 лет назад

      Hmm. Odd. Does the one vs. two bar nuts make a difference? Ive ran the little homelites with one bar nuts and it seemed like i was always re-tensioning the chain all the time where i dont do it so often with my ms 170 with 2 bar nuts.

    Took delivery of my ms 241 cm, today. It is everything you said of it and more. The only thing I did not like was that 3/8P chain it came with. At least, it not come with that .043 chain they put on the smaller saws. Mine did come with a canvas tool pouch and a T27 wrench. I did not find any loose screws after two tanks but I will check them again in my normal PM checks. I was also surprised that it was not really filthy after I got through using it, today. Mine, started with one pull when I started it on the second tank. It is now on its 3rd tank.

    I've been using the MS261 for just over two years now. Great saw, just a little bigger than the 241, it's 50cc. Other than that they're almost the exact same saw. I highly recommend them.

    • @em4703
      @em4703 4 года назад +1

      Yea I recommend the 261 also, the extra torque is welcomed compared to this, and with about 1lb difference but 33% more power, it's an obvious choice for a do-it-all farm saw. Light and powerful. If you want lighter, a cordless electric combo with 261 is just perfect!

    Norwegian price for MS 241C-M is between 6075 -> 7190,- Nkr.
    As of 26 june 2015, that is equivalent to 775 -> 918,- US$ or 692 -> 819,- Euros.
    Not sure if there is a significant difference between the C and the C-M model though.

  • @drafted72
    @drafted72 10 лет назад

    You didn't mention the fuel grade for this saw. I have seen many people use 87 octane instead of 89 in other Stihl saws, which affects the performance and may harm the saw. Additionally, when getting gas at a gas station you should insure that all of the grade 87, which most cars use, is out of the gas pump hose before placing grade 89 into your container. Nice video.

      William Klinger Jr Stihl isn't the ONLY great chainsaw maker, but sadly its just the same for chainsaws as it is for trucks with knuckleheads. Brand snobs.
      Husqvarna, Dolmar, Jonsered, Echo..etc all make saws just as good as a Stihl. Its all just personal preference

I don't use it that often but when it gives me trouble like you're experiencing, I remove the plug and wipe it off and it starts again without problems. What works best for me is not turning it off unless I really need to.

      Sounds like it may be burning oil or the main jet may be too fat. how many hours are on it? Does it smoke a lot when first started. If yes than id check the valve seals. If it smokes while running after its warmed up id look at the piston(s), rings, cylinder(s).

      IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT THAT THEN JUST GET A SAW Without the m-tronic or auto-tune

    Sweet Saw but here in Oztralia it is listed on the Stihl website at $1169 Au which is $1196 Can.
    I love the Stihl saws but that is TOO much for my wallet to handle.
    Loving the videos.
    Quick question do you know where I can source Tecumseh pistons and rings. I was given got a 3-4 Hp beast that has melted the piston in the bore, seems a shame to scrap it for lack of a piston and rings.
    Cheers Eric

      very expensive!

    • @midgoog2
      @midgoog2 10 лет назад

      Bang DingOW
      Yes seriously $1196 Can.
      The usual excuse given is the cost of shipping.
      The price of many things you guys get in the US is doubled in Australia. That includes download software etc. and shipping costs can't be a actor there.
      Cheers Eric

    Great review Dony! Very nice to have someone loan you a new saw to review. If it's ever possible to review any outdoor power equipment of any kind, I'll watch it. It's nice to know what new technology is out there in case something comes into your shop, that you might not be too familiar with.

    Looks like a great saw. Carries a €700 price tag here, so you'd expect it to be pretty good for that price.

    Don't ever run it out of gas, even to put it into storage condition. It's computer may decide it is dead and will not run, even after you refill it. I put my 241 in storage condition for 13 months and it thought it had died and would not run. I was so mad I put it on a box in my shop and just let it set for a week. I finally picked it up and it cranked up, although very sluggishly. It finally got its mid back and I used it to cut some big wood and it has behaved normally, since. This is a problem I have never faced with any other saw. My saws go in and out of storage, periodically. As of now, about half are in storage and half, operational.

    Hello Dony, is the electronic carb adjustable by yourself? or do you need Stihl or Husqvarna special software? Thank you very much for every single video. Greetings

    • @donyboy73

      I think you can adjust with a screwdriver, except the limiters might be in the way

    this or the ms311?

      This is way weaker than 311. Get 261 if you want more power.
