Stihl MS500i Fuel Injected: Is It Really Worth The Hype??
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 апр 2019
- The world's first saw without a carburetor is here. Meet the Stihl MS500i. The "i" stands for innovation and injection. The acceleration is extremely fast and the power to weight ratio is amazing. Watch our review of this high-tech saw. Here is the link to the video about the Swedish Iron Horse: • Swedish Iron Horse: Is...

I've had a chainsaw without a carburetor for years. I really should rebuild the carb and put it back on.
:-D
You made me laugh. Thanks Hough
I have a leaf blower without a Carb as well, its works fine, as long as i plug it in.
DIRT and dust will destroy this machine.
Lol, the first time i read it i didnt get it, then i read it again and started laughing.
Nice, no spluttering, no tough idle, no hesitation. Pure power.
I used to work at a Stihl dealer a few years ago. I remember the Stihl rep talking about this new fuel injected saw that they were working on. Nice to see it turned out well.
Regular TV is so bad these days I find myself up late watching tool videos. LoL
We got rid of our Satellite TV at the beginning of last year and we don't miss it at all. The Internet is where it's at
Instead of ads with a little bit of show it's show with a little bit of ads
OMG. Me, too!
small engine repair or model steam engine repair for me
I totally agree, tv shows have gone to shit,
Ebay be like : " Tuning chip for Stihl MS500i +20% power +25% economy Android and iOS app monitor your saw remotely , tuning on the fly ...
Hell yeah. Finna have an APR stage 2 chainsaw
Add some Vtec stickers for 50 more HP
Hahahah

I put a cold air intake and a NOS sticker on my chainsaw, tree said, "fuck this" and just fell over!
The perfect chainsaw for my 400sq/ft downtown condo!
Bingo!

I really enjoyed that Stihl animation @3:30.
I have a MS460. I just choke it. Pull 1-2 times most times, at most 3 times and it starts. Great saw! I have had it for awhile and I'm pretty darn sure its just as strong as brand new. I never use the decompression button either. My go to saw is a MS261 its light and runs a 20 inch bar really well. I cut Ash and Oak mostly.
Great combo with the saw and iron horse. Power and minimal footprint stacking saw logs. Nice to see you guys working wood. Good luck with good weather, great pastures and gardens this year.
Always a great day when I can watch a Swedish Homestead saw review! (Several times!)
All you kids and your technology, I still have my 2 man saw and it works great!
It's always good to see Tim and his mad skills again. Thanks Simeon. I'll never need a saw like that one, but it's interesting to see where the industry is headed.
This was very interesting. And I had not heard of this saw before. I will send this to my brother. It may serve his needs.
Thanks,

"Ach du lieber, mein schatz"! When I used to live up in the Northwest Wisconsin backwoods, near Madge (Spooner too). My great loves were my Pioneer P25 (3.1 cu.in. ) & P50 (5.0 cu.in.) chainsaws. The P25 did most all of my cutting. But my P50, "the screamer", was used for the "big schtoof", especially red & white oaks (hard as granite!). I was in my mid 30s in those mid & later 1970s (I'm now 79). How I greatly miss those most wonderful years as a bachelor & strong as "a bull" (stinky as one too!)!!! Owned 120 acres all to myself & my nearest & only neighbor was a mile away! Got down to -60°s one winter! Always carried a Ruger Super Blackhawk in .44 magnum with me in the woods. I've had a very blessed life!!! I try to thank God for it all, in Christ Jesus!!!!! "Gesundheit" & put annudder birch log on the fire for me poleaze! Miss those most wunnerful smells of a wood fire! But the Lord has blessed me well for this rest of my life too, now living in the "civilized" far north central Illinois.
Wow, you went from paradise to being a FIB😁
G’day mate!
Hope you are well.

Love 2 stroke advancement! Good job Stihl!
I have a 461 I do felling and milling. It's more then enough power for my work. Thanks for the review.
One thing I wanna share to all about Stihl Chain Saw, bought it in 1989 and until now still working in good condition. Amazing Stihl!
I am passing your videos on the new saws on to a Shihl dealer. He said he can't wait to see them.
Small outbound engines have been fuel injected for years now with great results. It was only time before the sub 100cc engines went this route.
Used one of these at college yesterday (I’m studying to become an arborist) it was a lot of fun
Look at how it goes into a plunge cut, that's impressive, I got to say the last 10 or so years all the saws I really haven't been impressed with, my old 90s Husqvarna can out cut them any day but this saw actually looks good enough it may be worth trying out. Excellent vid looking forward to trying one for myself
I'll have to say that time brings changes and this is just a natural progression. Fuel injection is the future for numerous reasons and yes it is extremely reliable in today's engines. I'm sure it will be just as reliable in smaller engines as it is developed. As my dad use to say, "boys the days they are a changing!" A truer statement has never been made!
Except now with good rechargable battries, especially in urban use, no exhaust, quieter and powerful electric saws do a better job. Charging off a small generator or a vehicle. Maintince on the motor, virtually nil,
@@51WCDodge I agree with you about the advancements in battery technology. It still has a ways to go to fit into pro/semi pro cutting but the push continues. For a homeowner with relatively limited work they are a real option. We still have a ways to go for extended cutting. Charging batteries with a generator is extremely inefficient.
@@samtuck6400 The tecnology is improving but how far it can go is the question. I'd agree the major concerns at the moment are cost of battries and charge/running time.Though one other concern is the lack of interchangabilty in batteries, you are tied to one manufactruer. .My favourite tool is a donkey years old Hydraulic saw that pluga into the hydrulic pto of a tractor. The down side is you hoses atached the up side is it just keeps going, including under water.
I messaged Stihl on Facebook. They said... Hello David, Thank you for your question. STIHL currently does not have an approximate release date available for the STIHL MS 500i in the US, but are hoping for late summer or early fall. When this kind of product becomes available, your local authorized STIHL dealers will be notified. Thank you for your interest in STIHL products and have a great day.
I asked my local dealer, and he had no idea what I was talking about.
david anthony Mine said the same and took it a step further by REFUSING to order one even when it was available. 🤦🏻♂️
@@phi376 My local dealer had no idea what I was talking about. He thought I was talking about the concrete saw.
My local dealer as well had no idea of this what so ever seems like stihl needs to educate the dealers on the product
@@itfmakaveli7769 I was going to buy a new 462, but with my lousy dealer i went with the husky 572xp. Also stihl labor rate is $100 hour, my husky dealer is $60 per hour. I own both brands, so not a fan boy. But $100 seems a little too high. And was very disappointed that I have more knowledge of their upcoming products, than they do.
Order one on Ebay dude
We have a Stihl cordless chainsaw - the battery is interchangeable with other Stihl machinery that we have which is really helpful - not such large scale as yourselves, but we like Stihl because the products are very reliable. Thank you for showing the saw in action - it is a very interesting video.
Good review Simeon, good to see Tim in the videos again. Things are looking good over there, kids are growing up. Thanks for sharing.
I’ll buy one eventually. I’ve used their cutoff saws with this technology and they’re no joke. I’ve never owned a bad Stihl product yet.
Give me a break ALL you brand fan boys are a joke I've been running saws for over 20 yrs and they ALL break down if your running them consistently and are working them hard lol ALL SAWS BREAK DOWN and in my experience I've had more trouble with STIHLS and there almost always more expensive to repair.
There's a few out there...
Who cares about the saw I want the cool little tracked skidder with the grapple.
Me too my SAWS FINE
🙌🏻
Yo! Right. I was thinking the same thing.
Dude for real though! I’m sure it’s rocking a nice a winch on it too
Yup I got my old 380 and a 661 that are in the bracket of the 500 ...but that little skidder would come in handy where I am
From what I'm told vertical chain saw cutting is really hard and homie makes it look effortless, very skilled.
Is it? Don't know, been doing it from the beginning 🤔 You need a properly sharp chain if you don't want to struggle.
Great video and enjoyed your demo of the Stihl saw. Always very professionally done!
This is great and all but these new high end electric saws are getting pretty good and my 1976 carb stihl is still running great
Just uncovered -75 or something Jonsered Raket RS52E. Bloody thing was unused roughly 30-40 years, jammed, but after oiling and moving things back and forth it started to loose up and even had spark from the get go. Recon i can get it running tomorrow, if i can find some gas hose and carbs membranes are not dead. It sure weights a ton, but seems to be reliable just like Stihl 029 that run on 3rd pull with old gas after sitting 5 years. I would like to see MS500i after sitting even a year unused. Probably cant even repair it due the damn fancy electronics failing after while.
New chainsaws have crap carbs on them and you are not legally allowed to adjust them after the completely break in after a year or so. Your old saw is a rare gem to have. Those of us who don't have an old one like you, need a fix for these new carbs saws.
@@williammitchell8247 I've been told. Got it from my dad he ran it over with a skid steer and still runs great he bought a replacement but it's nothing but problems
@@Hellsong89 we also had a Jonsered 52 E in the past. It's a really heavy machine with 3 HP. Unfortunately a couple of things were broken, so we retired it. Now we use a Stihl 026, this is also a good saw, it's more powerful, but still lighter.
I am with you EC. My absolute favorite is MS260 PRO. Twas last one made before carb modifications and it's still a wood eater ,especially with a 20" raptor bar. New saws are a OK but nothing's wrong with the ones still kicking off the showroom floor still.
It doesn't sound stressed as working. I'm amazed at it's power!
Starts easily.
I'd say it's a keeper!😉👍
susan sollee yes I agree it just breezes through that log.
It bogged a few times, but Tim did say the chain was a bit hungry.
Nič moc
im not its a 60+ cc saw with only a 20in bar on it it shouldn't bog at all even doing a bore cut
@@4freedomnow887 i think 95% of people didnt catch that.
My ms271 runs a 24" so this monster should have no problem keeping up haha.
A real good demo, love this saw.
Thanks
That's a Beast! Cuts fast and keeps the power on. You better start wearing 2 chaps when using that thing. lol
Buy a Stihl MS500i with fuckd ecu . Fits Holley EFi ...
Personally, I LOVE this.. Fuel injection is not only more efficient meaning you'll get more run time from one tank but its also more powerful. I don't know if I'll buy this one, I never buy the initial product just so they can fix the bugs but I WILL be buying one in the next year or two.
a properly set up carb will do exactly the same as fuel injection..... you still want the same air-fuel mix
sure.... it takes a LOT more work and skill to set up a carb correctly....... while most EFI systems auto adjust in seconds
might make starting it quicker, however
thats really the whole point.... less maintenance....
and jim bob cant fuck with the carb ..... then leave a 1 star review because it runs like shit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
but then again...... my old 77 chevy pickup with a 400 cubic inch v8, full time 4 wheel drive, and a mechanical secondary Q-jet 4 barrel carb
.....it gets 10mpg.... on a good day
ANYWAY.....
it will start in -50f, with no block heater..... when my 97 to 06 GM cars....even with block heaters plugged in, wont start (only 1/4 of kids showed up to school that day)
pull the choke... pump it twice, and turn it over
VA! ROOM! fires right up
but ive got all smog deleted (montana has ZERO emissions laws)..... and rebuilt the carb my self
spent DAYS dialing it in
but god damn does it run good...... only has ~35,000 miles on it, due to the fuel economy (which is mostly the full time 4 wheel drive....and aerodynamics like a brick)

351M is a 400 with a shorter stroke crank in it to make 351ci. Had one in my 78 f150, was a underpowered gas hog, It got replaced by a well built 70 460, that one would make ya smile when ya stomped on the gas, it was a gas hog also but at least had the power to make the gas bill worth it.
My early-mid 80's Stihl 028AV Super cuts just as well and starts as easy. I'll keep my carb. Grandpa bought it new. I believe it was the first year for the chain brake because I remember there being floor models at the dealer without them. I'm glad he bought the Super.
I love you Boys channel. I’m a professional woodcutter from Scotland. We have a saying. An inch at the bottom is worth a foot at the top. You need to get your stumps lower lads. Or do you not have aviation in Sweden 🤣🤣
I just bought an ms362c. It has the electronic engine management. It's a really good saw but I wish I would have bought this one!
Now that guy doing most of the cutting is how I expect to see a chain saw video, full safety gear. Not some clown in his shorts and runners with sun glasses on. Great video. Only thing I feel you missed was how does it perform in cold climate.
Good to see you back. Have been wondering where you've been. Been missing your videos.
Gizmos and gadgets just what we need. I’m not jumping up and down about. I hope every saw manufacturer does life testing on this new hi tech power equipment. For the ones who make a living with there saws don’t need anymore down time.
What rpm does V-TEC kick in???
@Gibbon why not?
Woosh my dude
Lol
It goes honduhhhhh at WOT
Unknown Weeb No kidding, right?!
Great! First time it screws up and you have to bring it to the dealer for service let us know how that fuel injection works for you $$$$ wise. Carb rebuild kit
Exactly
Not so much an hour on the back of a tailgate. But I get you I'm a small engine mechanic and 20 years and don't think that it will be alive and have fun getting parts if you want
How many cars on the road right now have carbs in them? I don't see a bunch of them broke down beside the road.
Glock2201 Yeah, we're not talking cars here. You want one of these, fine, go buy one, couldn't care less. I've been running saws professionally for 30 years making a paycheck, and carbs have never been a problem for me. Simple, reliable, and I DON'T have to bring it to any dealer for service. That was the point of my comment.
@@blkdog229 No, you're not talking cars, but the concept is very much the same. It may be new for saws, but the tech itself is _not_ new, by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, it's 3-4 decades (or more) old. You are just willfully ignorant.
Thats pretty awesome, gonna have to check that saw out. Love stihl saw. Thanks for sharing
Damn, that is one sexy machine. Went through that wood like butter and isn’t even broken in yet. If it feels heavy it doesn’t look heavy watching you guys use it. Nice video.
Needs larger double dogs... and a wrap handle... and nice psy-ko zip from hotsaws101
Every saw needs that treatment!
Wow! your bro is really good at operating that saw
I thought so too but no one else said it. Maybe we just suck lol.
This guy knows what he is doing. Nice saw handling!

Really great video! Saw too!
Im really happy to catch one of your videos seconds after the release! Just finished watching the vid.
This was an excellent review. I don't think I will ever need this saw on my Pennsylvania homestead, but it's nice to keep up with the technology. I have subscribed to your channel.
I really enjoy my husquarvarna 390xp its such a damn beast, I bought it new for 1250.00 bucks great investment paid for itself for sure . I also have a small stihl climbing saw that does most of my small to medium cutting . I have a old homelite with the steel body that saw is really good too.
Fuel injection and still gotta pump 8 times . I was expecting a remote start so I could start it , and let it warm up from my kitchen while I have a cup of coffee.
lmfao
That saw arrived in Britain earlier this week and our local dealership is having an open day tomorrow. Think I’ll pop down and have a look.
Could just watch some gay porn... would be the same
Until a year ago i only had a ms361 that i ran with a short bar, or a long bar, depending on the task. After i got a ms201 i never seem to use the 361 anymore, just some chainsaw milling with a 28" bar. The smaller and lighter saw works fine in 90% of my work. Leading me to beleive i won't need this, but cool stuff is cool, and i i'd like this one.
Very cool, I have rebuild all my older pro saws to avoid the electronic carbureted modules and in a few more years I will go to the pure efi model s that will be out and revised several times by than.
We kinda "deleted" the exhaust on our weedeater, and it sounds just like this thing now.
That's incredible. EFI on a chainsaw!
Not sure anybody said EFI, all I saw was FI.
@@integr8er66 What do you think that integrated circuit board is for?
@@sylkelster Probably to drive the laser felling beam.😂
@@integr8er66 You are right EFI would require a battery and charging system.
Suzuki has a battery less efi system on one of their outboards.
Fun to watch a pro run a saw. Lots to learn!
Cool work with the saw. And cool tools!
Star of the video is the little caterpiller forwader. Could you make a video about that? Thx, love your vids.
It’s fuel injected.
Good Review on the 500i.
But what is the self-propelled grapple in the back ground at 5:21 Who makes it and where can we get one.
Stihl is just the best there is . I have a MS310 and a MS025 we have mod the muffler on both . The quick throttle is the key rev fast plenty of power to cut . I make aluminum skid plates for mine to tie all the peace’s together . You just have to love the way they cut and saw . Yeah exhaust levels you know they have to hate competing . Because there’s a lot of mods done to get way more power to win ! I like the MS310 it’s a great powerful and does weigh a good little bit but not real bad! Great video !
I was wondering when EFI would replace carbs on small engines. I guess it's now! Thanks for the video.
I always enjoy seeing the expertise of your brother's saw work. Today's video prompted a couple questions. I would love to hear your brother explain his techniques of cross-cutting his felled tree. I noticed that he makes a cut around the circumference with the tip of his saw before finishing the center part of the crosscut. I'm assuming it has to do with avoiding getting his saw pinched. The other technique I noticed today was the two small flat cuts on either side of his hinge wood. I would enjoy hearing from him both how this helps him and how I should do it correctly myself. Thanks!
I'm no expert, far from it but I suspect Tim does those flat cuts by the hinge to clear the bark, and is then better sighted to keep his bore cut straight and true to line for the hinge.
The two small cuts on either side of the hinge help to prevent fiber pull. If you've ever seen a stump with "horns" of wood sticking up from one or both ends of the hinge, that's fiber pull: you've pulled some of the wood out of the butt of the log. Not a big deal if you are cutting firewood, but it can ruin the end of a saw log: the log's grade may be reduced due to the defect: fewer or shorter good boards can be sawed out of it since those chunks are missing. If you are cutting a veneer-grade log (which can be big Dollar/ big Krona selling price), significant fiber pull can cause it to be downgraded to a saw log. The likelihood of this happening varies with the species of wood. The chance also increases significantly if your felling cuts are down near the root flare of the stump. (As a side benefit, as @Julian Easton noted, it does make it easier to see what hinge dimensions you are setting up.)
They answered the questions well.
@@simeonandalex What I think we all agree on is the interest in the methods would make for a fantastic tutorial video
John McNerney l
Jason should use it in his next movie!
Its perfect for home use. Simi pro as well. The efi will make it start well after sitting for a month or so.
I recently found your channel by chance and are now catching up with your progress the last couple of years. It has been a blast, love your videos!
I'am a little bit curious about your youtube ventures, are you sponsored by the tools you are rewieving, and are you getting any ad revenue from youtube? You sure are worth it for your effort.
It weighs 11% (13.6687-12.3=1.3687 lb) more than my MS 361 but has about 55% more bhp (6.8-4.4=2.4). Great if you are a pro and money is not tight.
That saw is a beast can’t wait for it to hit aus
Anyone know when that would be?
I'd rather like a go with the 500i. I'm all for injection if it saves fuel and makes a quicker responding, torquier saw but the electronics worry me when it's on a domestic job being thrown around up a tree or in a van. A good review guys, thank you 👍
It is an absolute pig on gas. But it's also absolutely incredible. No worries about durability either. Professional Tree Service in Eastern PA.
I’m still using my Stihl chain saw manufactured in 1959. Runs like a bat out of hell.
That's all we need, something else we can't repair...
@power equipment a carburetor is a lot easier to fix or replace than a fuel injection system
@paulsan2112 They do the FI so that only their dealerships will be able to service them, at least for a while...
....and no Chinese knock offs for a few years...
Or something else we don't have to re-tune every month of the years because THREE DEGREES MORE BOY NOW THE A/F RATIO IS GARBAGE DO THAT AGAIN FROM SCRATCH. And has more power and less heavy. Not all change is bad change.
@trams dell You don't know how reliable they are, they've not been out long enough to assume that.
The “i” stands for “I need one”
Interesting little saw. When this technology shows up in big saws and Loggers put them to work, we will learn about reliability and longevity.
All that looks like is another day of hard work. Sound real good, but my old farm boss runs fantastic.. Western Ontario Canada.

gr8 saw handling lads
You guys have a really great channel, thanks.
Not to criticize, but the STIHL MS500i is the first chainsaw with ELECTRIC injection. Not at all the first saw in the world with injection. Actually there are several older chainsaws that had a type of injection. For example the Norwegian "Bamse", from the 50ˋs, which had a mechanical injection driven by a valve on the crankshaft. Nice video by the way! :D
Håkon Andrè Landsverk sach dolmar has a fuel injected carb so your right lots of fuel injected chainsaws of one kind or another 😀
Every combustion engine has fuel injection, so you're just arguing semantics and/or technicalities.
Naru 'Sanav some engines are carburated so not all engines have fuel injection 🤪
My carbureted saws aren't fuel injected. Air passing through a constriction by the jet port creates a venturi vacuum and sucks fuel into the intake. So try again.
@@etherealrose2139 That's _mechanical_ fuel injection, which is the precursor to _electric_ fuel injection. "Try again", indeed.

There are several other dirtbike manufacturers with fuel injected 2 strokes. Though theyre not 500cc lol
Honda is coming out with a new cr500 with 92hp, 44hp more than the previous and is 33 pounds lighter as well. I don’t think you would be worrying about fuel injection when you are impregnated into a tree lol.
Dude. All of my injuries are from attempting just that. Lol and I so love knowing this. If you find anything on RUclips link it here. 🤜 hell yeah!
@@ScoopDaddy488 link?
They have had fuel injected for CR500 for quite some time men dash lady not quite sure your background pictures misleading
The MS 500i is an Animal. Great review
Great Stihl advertisement . . . wicket power in that hardwood.
Next model will be electric start, and have an app to run it from your phone, won't even have to get off the couch LOL.
Awesome technology but I like the simplicity of my carbed STHIL’s because the less electrics and more mechanical shit the easier it is for me to work on.
AMEN.
and year later, go ask someone who has used to saw in professional use, how much issues they have had....
In MotoGP/GP500 there were injectors on 2 strokes 20+ years ago. What did took so long to apply them on chainsaws. I hope it gets common in the near future.
Cuts pretty fast there. 20" bar is generally pretty small for that size though. My 362 works well into 25" bars, but doesn't cut that fast no matter what I do. Stihl is great either way.
Small engine fuel injection systems seem to be very problematic and surely with equipment being used in demanding environments such as a chainsaw the simpler the better. I dont doubt the electronics will be the first to fail.
Plenty of pro lawn mowers with 30+ hp v twins with 2,000 hours on them without any efi issues.
cptbuilt K Agreed
Wow maybe a stihl will actually start when you want it to now
Seen a cng/propane powered weedeater for sale on 5miles the other day, interesting little thing, had a little propane tank where a gas tank would be located.
That saw does not fuck around , great video
If this is the future of chainsaws then I’m very glad to be stuck in the past with my non auto tune manual carb Echo saws at least if something goes wrong with them I’m not restricted to paying over the top dealership service charges and for the most part I can fix them myself. All too easy to bang on about how eco friendly and clean running these new generation saws are but if you have to loose a days cutting and drive your truck to the nearest dealership every time it messes around you very quickly loose any eco benefit and your down time increases so you make less money. As a business I can’t see why anyone would think these saws are a good idea
The 500i motor has been around since 2012 in concrete saws and they are proven reliable. I have a family member who runs them commercially (10 saws used most days) and completely got rid of his carby models as they are unreliable comparably. Don't diss it to you try it.
Not that negative about it. Its great technolgy made to last!
