Stihl twist caps 😡😡😡!!!!!

[Ian C]

I think there ok, don't have a great problem with them but I prefer the new husky ones, flip cap but screw in, simple but effective, stihl caps seem complicated for the sake of being different.

Ahaha I'm fed up with old saw, just going to buy a new shiny one

😜

 

Really fancy an echo or a dolmar 👍 Something small light and reliable

Fixed that for you

Have you ran many modern echo or dolmar machines? The dolmar i bought 2 years ago has and still is a great little saw that has been more reliable than the stihl 261 I bought.

Forum would be a bit boring without a good old which is the best chainsaw debate.

 

There would just be more threads asking how many fingers I am holding up with spin off threads asking how many fingers should I be holding up and what are the best fingers to hold up.

 

The reason stihl and husky seem more unreliable is because there are more of them in use and people only usually post when they have an issue imo.

 

Look at the Ford transit, in reality a good truck used and abused by loads of people daily. If you only believed what you read on the internet you would never buy one.

 

If you can't get your twist cap to work properly it's either faulty or your using it incorrectly.

Ha chill out its not just the twist cap, just fancy something different...

 

 

Transits are rubbish

[Hobbsurf]

Sometimes, if they're not seated properly when you twist them you have to wind the cap back on its locking mechanism, if that makes sense.

 

Spot on description. Only takes a bit of time to get the hang of how it works.

 

If you can't pass the test, move on to lesser brands. :-)
