New Saw on the Way!!!

[Kioti Tom]

I have a Stihl 028 Wood Boss I bought in '80. I lived just down Lynnhaven Pkwy from the
factory then and still had to go thru one of the dealers. Great saw, still have and use it.:thumbsup:

In the late 70's my dad bought a Stihl 045 Super with a 20" bar. It has been a great saw and still looks very good. Ever since I have been a Stihl believer.

A while back I got a ported muffler off of ebay and installed it.

I also bid on a 2 stoke tachometer to help me adjust the carb. I finally got it set. The high end is supposed to be 13,500 rpm and I used up all of the adjustment but was able to hit the number perfectly. Now I just need to be patient and wait for my next big tree project to come along.

Did you get the aftermarket DP cover that runs about $20. If so after some run time let me know how they hold up.

The new oem ones have went out of site price wise.

I bought the aftermarket one.

?

Any time on that aftermarket DP cover? You got just the front cover?

I just bought a whole afm DP muffler assembly for a 440 to try out. Old oem one was smashed by a tree. Customers aka friends saw.

I got the outer aftermarket ported muffler. No significant cutting time yet.
As soon as I get to use it I will post the results.
