Honestly I might purchase a new 462 as a gift for one of my business partners. He is a Stihl nut

Buy a sticker and slap it on a farm boss.

I don't think I've seen a ported 441 that will run with a well ported 460, or a hybrid, but some people really like them, and their spring AV.

I like all the saws, but the spring av is much smoother albeit not as tough as the rubbah

Maybe not, but the stock 460 wasn't even close.

Power to weight looks pretty good...

Stihl MS-462: 72.2 cc; 6.0 HP/4.4 kW, 13.2 lbs.

Makita 7900: 78.5 cc; 5.7 HP/4.3 kW, 14.7 lbs.

Can the numbers be accurate?

 

[ferris]

the 462 numbers are correct
Dolmar 7910 5,8 hp and 15 lbs
Dolmar 7900 6,3 hp and 14.1 lbs

Saving your pic to the weight thread. Here is another 10mm 044 from my weight thread to confirm yours.

The weights on the 441, 460, and 461 are just what I expected, ditto the one 044.

Do you have the SN on the light weight 044? It must be a very early saw (based on the screw caps), but has a later air filter cover (the early ones had slots), so that saw is not all original. It is very rare to see them with those caps.

I'm very curious about what causes the weight difference between the two 044s. Were the 12 mm saws heavier???

Anyone know the years that corresponded with those caps?

I would also like to know the SN on the 14 lb 044, as that also looks like a 10 mm saw (most of the 044s with out the wings on the air filter covers are 10 mm).

I just save the pics of saws broke down by brands into threads. All are suppose to be dry PHO weights with clutch covers.
Sorry dont have any history of the saws unless it was said in post saved from. Like 10mm etc.

I do notice that early 044 10mm has riveted tag on top and the caps. My early 084's had those caps too.

The early 044s had less webbing on the tanks, and didn't have the metal corner guard that keeps a thrown chain from slapping into the plastic... probably why it's so hard to find one without a busted tank/handle. The 440 tanks are much more durable, and probably heavier.

My 044 has riveted tags also, but the original fuel caps were like the ones on the 14 lb saw. The caps in the lighter one are what you expect to see on a 038, and are very rare on an 044. Don't know that I have seen another with them.

Maybe a couple of ounces, but not a half pound. I also thought I heard the older flywheels were heavier, so this kind of baffles me.

Cases are different, too.

 

[MustangMike]

I know a 10 mm case is different than a 12 mm case, but are there other versions?
