another 261

OK- I must be going stupid

After all our problems with the last 261 I've gone and ordered another. If this one plays up then I can officially label them useless. If it's as good as the other one was when first used then I will sing their praises.

There you go Stihl- an order and a warning.

I once bought a 'Hershey bar' in San Fran.

It was so awfull I went back for another.

Then not quite believing the total awfullness of a sour chocolate with a hint of cats vomit, I bought another the next day before I learned my lesson.

It took 3 bars for me to come to my senses and vote never to buy another!

Maybe when your product loyal it is the same, persisting with the devil you know...

Amazing- I too bought a Hershey Bar' but in Las vegas

It was vile- I will never buy another one.

But.. I bet I do because I now don't think they can be that bad really, can they. Apologies to any Americans who obviously love them.

I second that.

I was Stihl all the way until this year. Bought a 346 in April - easily matches my MS260.

346XP it will be then though the boys at FRJones assure me Stihl have now fixed the original problem and we should be flying.

I will resurrect this post should we have grief.
