  1. My 385's stock muffler does that, burning embers in my face ain't much fun Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  2. Shall do so after christmas, gotta use what money I have left on buying the girlfriend a present Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  3. Yes, but you need a wrap handle, stubby! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  4. You need the euro muffler for that, pipes are much better than deflectors Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  5. Nice, you can run the same sizes as the 660, up to 36", in fact, any 80-90cc should run up to 36" easily Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  6. You can for the 390, but it's £120+, I managed to import mine from America at a lower price though, swear by wrap handles now, so as soon as I can, I'm ordering wraps for the 560! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  7. Twin dogs not standard, it's about £12 for the standard outer dog Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  8. If the news didn't report the inconsequential stories they'd have nothing to report Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  9. Yeah, I found out the minimum shipment price for non-stocked parts, don't think I could shift £150k worth of wrap handles for the 560xp, at least stihl has a minimum order of 100 of an item for non-stock Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  10. Yeah, couldn't be bothered to list all the differences, the most important difference is the yanks get a wrap handle, and husky uk are complete arses and won't get one for me! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  11. Maybe that's why he didn't win, busy checking out the other divers in their budgie smugglers Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. No good trying to look hard online, we both know you wimped out from the pits! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  13. The 562xp is a different saw, it has a larger crankcase, with a bigger oil tank and large bar mounts
  14. Easy, stihl 10-cube as the big saw, just a tad expensive, but runs an 88" fine
  15. Your missus is more manly! You're joining me in the pits next year, prove you're a man! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  16. .325 8t rim is what I use Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  17. Yeah... Kuz you're so manly max! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  18. Lighter fluid is another option Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  19. Oh come on! Who didn't think he was?! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  20. Probably 07/08/s-10, if you find any part numbers 1107 is 07(s), and 1108 is the 08(s) and S-10 Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  21. Top-handle type or rear? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  22. So rich, what was the old stihl? Speaking of old stihls, just fitted a decompression valve to the 051, what a pig of a job, to get to the cylinder the following must be removed: starter side, exhaust cover/rear hand guard, rear handle, clutch casing! Then you can remove the cylinder cover/lower half of the rear handle! Remove the plug for the decomp and fit inside, which requires a long 17mm socket Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  23. No, if you're competent, you're competent, they don't fail you, unless you make a cock-up, and a big one at that, as long as you've used up most of your 'mix' Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  24. Fit it like the spur sprocket looked, the actual rim doesn't matter which way round it's fitted Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  25. +1 keep, these are monster saws and pull like demons, none of the modern stihls have a patch on it! If it's the unbraked version you can bodge it to fit a brake Here's my 051 that I bolted an ally block to fit the handle to Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
