    I have my fathers old 038 super magnum. I cleaned it up and replaced all the old fuel lines. Tightened everything up and it runs like a champ. I’m so proud to have it. I believe he bought it mid to late 80s so over 25years old. So cool to take the family and collect firewood for the winter has become tradition in my family.

      Mario Rivera I just acquired my uncles old 038 magnum 2 yesterday,still in great shape,cuts good for a saw built in the 80s,it says made in west Germany on side cover so it was made before the Berlin Wall fell. Took the big dogs off my 066 and threw them on the 038 and bought the biggest replacement dogs I’ve ever seen for the big old brute as a treat. Greetings from British Columbia😎

    Looks like the "loop handle" on the 036 pro allows you to hold either side when cutting vertically. Nice featue. I was surprised you didn't flip the bar over when you switched chains. My brother taught me to do that to wear the bar evenly. He also taught me to fill the bar oil before the gas, to ensure i never ran it without bar oil.

      I just got an 026pro for $50 off the Facebook Marketplace. Runs great. Doesn't look to pretty but the plastic isn't all busted or anything and everything works. Was just the powerhead so it has a nice new shiny bar and chain on it now. Wanted one for a while and $50 was a damn steal. I have found some really good deals on there the past few weeks. I got a Makita DCS6421 too a couple weeks ago for $250, Husqvarna 372xp $400, Stihl MS440 with the full wrap handle and a new 28 inch Sugi Hara Bar and the original 20 inch bar and chain and he had an OEM top end just in case he needed it he threw in for $400. I found a Stihl 066 for $425 too and a Husqvarna 395xp for $375. At an auction I went to a month or so ago guy had 5 saws all Stihl but one only one of the saws interested me though the 046 I wanted that saw bad. It looked like he never once ran it. His other saws were all from the 60s-70s and all you could tell had plenty of use. The auctioneer said they found the 046 in his basement the rest were all in the barn so maybe he bought it new 20 years or however long ago and just never used it. I figured for $300-500 I could buy it. It brought $800. I ran the guy up to $800. Pissed me off. I was at $300 nobody else bid then right before he said sold dude came in so I let him have it. Hell a new one can't cost much more then he paid then there is a 10% fee plus tax so he probably ended up spending what he could have got a brand new version of that 046 for. At a weekly auction I go to I bought a Stihl 009L and Husqvarna 142 for $45 for the pair a month ago too. Both homeowner saws but for that cheap. I have a Redmax coming now I just bought on Ebay a day or 2 ago too. I can't think of the model but its the Husqvarna 439 basically a rear handle version of the 435T top handle saw. Seller had the display unit from his shop for $240. I was wanting rear handle version of a top handle for a while and really wanted a Stihl MS201c just they cost over double what I bought that saw for. Might still buy one if I can find another nice used one. Had one in my cart on Ebay for $340 but before I finished checkout somebody else bought it.

      I just bought a Makita DCS6421 a couple weeks ago. Had been wanting one finally bought one. Hell of a saw. Seems a bit heavy for a 64cc saw though. Maybe in the future I will put the 79cc top end on it then it won't seem so heavy jumping up to 79cc should be basically the same weight. It was a Home Depot rental saw I got for $250. Think I will buy a 24 inch bar for it. I already bought a new Oregon 20 inch bar at an auction I go to every week had a new bar and chain I bought for $24 didn't really need it but the factory bar on it is painted orange like somebody just hit it with a paint brush guess because it was a rental saw they did that so it could be recognized if somebody tried to pawn it or something. Strange that I have found 28 inch bars for $30 less then a 24 would think it would be the other way around.

    You need to remember that these saws were built in the 80's.
    It was always and still is hard to start.
    A decade ago i bought a Jonered cs2186 and never touched the 038 magnum again.
    When the new stihl 661 come out i bought it as well... both the jonered and new stihl 661 are great saws, they have tons of grunt and start easy.
    With proper maintenance the jonsered is still like new and the 661 looks like it will go the distance as well. Saws that might have been designed in the late 70's are no match for a modern pro saw.

That was a good saw but it had a problem starting if you shut it off when it was hot.That saw was replaced with a “Homelite” after my Dad lost patience with it and tossed into the pond in the winter of ‘61.

    I had a 30+ year 36" Stihl. It cut through trees and logs without ever stalling, even 48 inch trunks. Being a bit dumb I let a neighbor borrow it to cut the logs on his front yard. He finally returned it after a few months by setting it in my garage when I went in for lunch. I found it a few days later. The chains was so dull it the teeth were almost gone, the Venturi was broken so the air filter cover could not attach. I couldn't get it to even fire once. Spark okay, fresh gas & oil. I looked down the Venturi with throttle wide open, the bottom of my piston was missing. Que sara sera. Never lend a tool.

    Mike, use 93 octane fuel. The higher octane is best. When a saw loses 400 rpms in a log, you're pushing too hard or the chain's dull. Let the chain do the cutting & the saw will last far longer. The better test of those saws would be if the newer 1 lasts as long as the older 1. Bet it won't. Far older Stihl mechanic & thanks for a great video.

    Those older Stihl saws from the 90s were great and so long as they are kept in good repair and you are not working them to death there is no need to replace them unless maybe you are a pro. I have a small Stihl 023 that I still run that is nearly 30 years old and though I do not use it a ton (just a home owner) all I have done is replace the spark plug and fuel line once, and of course the chain as needed. That lets you save up for a nice battery powered saw which I feel are more convenient for a home owner or that awesome fuel injected Stihl saw, only because nothing can compare to it today for power to weight ratio.

    Just found the video, I have an 036 it's 21 years old finally had to take it to the shop along with it's 460 magnum big brother. Both have cut Huge amounts of wood and the 460 I logged with for 3 years helping a friend out. I wouldn't trade either saw for any other brand out there, they have been reliable from the first day. Have you ever tried sharpening your brand new chain? Sounds crazy but give it a try it's worth it!

      My Granpa had one that was passed down to my Dad and we used it for a while but the motor is going to go soon. I want to restore it because it was my Granpa favorite saw when he did his firewood buisness.we didn't even know what the saw was because all the decals are scratched but after a little research I finally ally found it.

    I have an 028 woodboss with a 16" bar I bought in 1988, used it to heat my house for 20 years, then used it to cut down trees to make space for a new house. Still runs great. Had to replace all the vibration isolators last year. That's the only maintenance I've had to do other than clutches, bars and a spark plug. I kind of wish it would wear out so I could try a new one, but it just keeps running.

    I'd like to have seen the test done with the same cutting technique used for both saws. You rocked the old 036 a lot more, while just holding steady and cutting with the 362. The saw can pull the full bar, by rocking you limit how much wood is in contact with the chain and slow down the overall cut.

    • @IndependenceIron
      @IndependenceIron 3 года назад +3

      I agree with this comment. I think the 036 would have been alot closer if both were cut straight down and no rocking.

    I use me new Stihl-441 CM (and sometimes my old 044 Magnum) for bucking hardwood. I use my 30 year old Stihl -026 for limbing and felling cedar. All of them are fantastic saws...keep your chain sharp, use only premium fuel and oil if you want them to last.

  • @ChippyOutdoors
    @ChippyOutdoors 4 года назад

    362 almost sounds like its winding out at higher rpm then the 038 right off the bat. Do you know if the chain speeds are suppose to be close to each other?

  • @sidogg4113
    @sidogg4113 6 лет назад

    It seemed like the way you rocked the old saw slowed it down. I agree with an earlier comment, next time just let the weight of the saw do the work. I would bet they are the same speed. Enjoying the channel... fan for about a year and a half now.

  • @johnclarke6647
    @johnclarke6647 4 года назад

    Some advice. When cutting in cold weather I use Echo Premium bar oil, because I think it oils better Thant Stihl Platinum, whips is my preferred bar oil in hot weather. I do not have an 036 but I do have a ms-360 and ms- 361 and they are great saws. I cannot tell you which one of the two saws cut the fastest, because they feel very similar. If they are different it is not in a measurable degree. What I like about the 360 is that it is the lightest of my big saws. I have never used a 362 so I cannot make a comment on it but my 360 and 361 do cut slower than my ms 660 but about the same as my ms- 391.

    I have a 19 or 20 year old 044 with a 24" bar and the only things I have replaced are 3 bars and a few chains . I was told by many professional loggers to never rock your bar on a downward cut .They tell me to let the motor and chain to do all the work and that it will cut faster plus your bars will last longer because your not putting excess down force on it . Never did time it to find out though . This saw will cut seasoned black locust as fast as most saws and has never failed me . Would be interesting to see if the old boys were not pulling my leg as far as rocking the saw though . I did notice in your video that you rocked the old saw forward a lot more. than the new one ?

    I love those 60cc Stihl saws as all-arounders. They really are a great balance between power, weight and price. The 036 was my first saw and those things are bomb proof. I have a 362 now and love it.
    If money wasn't an issue, I would have 462 and 261, but hard to argue with the 362 as an excellent only saw.

    Great comparison test between old and new. I think it would have been a better test if they both had the same size bar, and like was mentioned in another comment, just a free-weight cut or straight through with no rocking. I have a 026 that's about the same age runs great, only did a carb kit a few years ago. Great saws.

  • @theaxeman4429
    @theaxeman4429 5 лет назад +1

    If you’d use same size bar&chain on both - difference would be even greater.
    036 sounds better, but that’s just because it’s old and well run in. 362 sounds rough - but should should get nicer with time. Be kind to your saws - let them warm up before you rev them high. 👍

  • @Fatamus
    @Fatamus 5 лет назад

    I bought an 046 back in mid to late 90's. I built a cordwood house using the 046 to cut the beams, posts and caps. Many hours behind the bar lead to saw maintenance of course but I found after several years of use the drive sprocket needed replacing. When i got the new part it had been replaced with a new part number (not uncommon with aging equipment) the glitch is the drive sprocket had a different gear ratio by one tooth which made the chain run noticeably slower. The old style gear was no longer in production. So what I have to say is the older saw may be using a different gear ratio than it did when it was new.
    Just food for thought.

    I still have my first saw, a Stihl 021 for nearly 30 years now. I don't use it so much but it always starts when I need it and I just used it last week to clear a tree that fell over a neighbors driveway. All I have done to it was other than sharpen the chain was to replace the gas line and spark plug about 8 years ago. I sure hope they still make them like they used to but everything else is so cheap and complex now a days that I'm not so sure I'd want to ever trade this little 021 in for a newer model.

    Both are great saws. Newer saws run at higher rpms, which result in faster chain speeds. If you really want to cut fast, put a taller socket on a big saw, with a short bar!

      Probably also a good idea to run this newer saw in properly before testing it like this. If it is run in for the first 10 or more tanks of gas it will run even better than this. I would also recommend using it gently and idling it for a few mins before turning it off during this run in period. I have done this with my new chainsaw and the difference from the first time i used it to now (20+ tanks later) is remarkable.
