Ms 363 cm or is it ?

[Fieldarcher]

Hi Guys

Bit of help from any Stihl gooroos out there.

I picked up my new Ms362cm 18" today.

Now I've noticed that it has " MS362 C" on the chain brake.

It also has a three poz switch not two as I thought came with the cm model .

 

Here's what I know , part No 1140 200 0179 is a MS 362 c m.

 

This saw has a part No 1140 967 3304A S.

( 179582322 stamped on plate)

Date 12/2014

 

Have they given me the model without the electronics ?

I have the 2015 catalogue open in front of me and this saw order number isn't in it!!!

 

Any ideas guys?

Too annoyed to think straight!

Can't really help with most of it, but my ms261cm has a three position swith, off on and choke.

 

If there are no holes on the side for tuning screwdriver it's probably auto tune, if there are holes it's probably not?

Yeah my mtronic 261 has three settings on off and choke

I was thinking of another 60 cc saw but seen the 362 is now a mtronic

 

Admittedly the husqvarna 365 is a 70 cc but for the money its where i will be going

 

Goo luck with the fancy saw

Yes it is the m-tronic don't worry.

However if you want a 2015 saw then you'll prob have to request it directly from Stihl most places even when they order stock in 2015 will come as a 2014 model at mo.

Same as mine. Says 363C on the tag but is 362C-M. If it jumps back to setting I after you shut it of it's a m-tronic.

If its the cm model you should be able to see a red wire if you look at the side of the throttle body (carb) to run a solenoid valve.

 

If theres no red wire there its not the cm model

[Fieldarcher]

Thanks a lot guys.

I just opened her up and yes there is a solenoid on the throat'd body .

I know these sit on the displays for a while so the date thing isn't a problem.

Get to play with it tomorrow after all.

Yup that's definetly a c-m.

[Fieldarcher]

Thanks for all your help guys .

What a joy to use , it is actually easier than my 211 to start.

I also didn't find it any where as heavy as I expected .
