What's on your bench today?

Is that the standard carb model? I have done a couple and it gives the saw a fair bit more go! The "CM" is the Mtronic one isn't it??? The ones I have done are the normal adjust carb!

 

 

I don't think the 241 ever came as a normal carb did it? I know the 441 ipl I have only shows a screw carb (didn't think that was an option either).

Nah, it's the m-tronic version spud. I've only had it 6 months and it's already had a new carb in it. The "c" doesn't make sense to me either.

Ah, thought that was the CM model - baffling:confused1:

If you can get hold of the metal caged needle bearings, they are significantly stronger than the fibre ones!

 

Ta. Spud. Will try to source some.

Yeah, two versions of the 362, both labeled "C" on the starter - with the M-Tronic labelled "C-M" in the literature..

 

The 241, I dunno. I never paid much attention to them until someone offered me one. With a good MM, they are good saws with a load of torque for their size.

Just make sure when you muffler mod that it doesn't end up eating away at a brake handle or sumfin. There's loads of room under the bonnet of a 241 for the muffler, thus the big ole hole.

 

Yeah I was just gonna drill out the existing hole to make it bigger. There's no baffles in the muffler or anything, just a hollow can. Is the 241 the same?

There's a small perforated baffle on the 241. The 241 is actually surprisingly choked up. It has a small baffle and a tiny exit hole - maybe 8mm. It's basically guaranteed to fill up the exhaust with carbon and run hot. They respond extremely well to muffler mods when recalibrated correctly.

Should I wait till my warranty is up? Or go for it now?

Well, I'd hate to see your dealer give you a tough time over it if you needed warranty work. After all, it is rather invasive surgery.
