Hi I have the 326. It’s my first saw and I bought it new 2 1/2 years ago. I have had continual problems with the pull cord assembly - the white plastic unit that the pull cord fits into in the saw housing. It’s also connected to the flywheel. Over 2 + years I have had to have this white unit replaced no less than 3 times at £35 a time. The saw usually starts within 3 pulls, but then it will suddenly become jerky and really hard to pull, and I mean REALLY HARD. When I then pull harder the white assembly part disintegrates as the flywheel connections dig in in a jerky damaging fashion. Off then to the repair man and another £35.
In every other way I love this saw, but won’t keep shelling £35, so I’m thinking of cutting my losses and getting a Stihl MS131

Sorry, should have read MS 181, not 131
