My 421 Dolmar starts the best. But it's really splitting hairs. My Mofo 036 is a close second. Usually it's me who goofs it up though because the controls are different going from Stihl to Dolmar and vise versa.

My 192t is my most frustrating saw. If you don't hear the first pop and it had popped, you can pull it all day long. I have to start it before someone starts a saw or walk away where's it a little more quiet. Do it right and your rewarded with a great running saw all day long. Do it wrong and you may as well throw it in the truck.

Easiest is a Tie between my MMWS 9010 and my muffler modded 562: 1-2 pulls. Mac 10-10 is right in there though at 1-3. Everything else is pretty good except for the Stumpbroke 372 and MMWS 262, when cold, and been sitting for awhile, ***IF*** I don't trickle a snort of mix down the carb first. If I do "prime" them, they light off very quickly and well. Both of the Huskies are pissed off at the world once running, and one pull starters once warmed, but they can be a PITA, w/o priming when cold.

Dolmar 421 and 6400 start perfectly each time with two pulls following the factory starting procedure. When warm, one pull. Used the 6400 in 18 degree weather Sunday, no issues. Sooner or later, I need the mufflers gutted and the saws retuned.

I've got a couple that start real easy .The best is the first saw I ever bought in about'74-75 or so,an S25 Poulan .The 024 Stihl starts easy.A tweeked Stihl 038 Mag takes about 8-10 on the first start but after nearly always lights off on one .
Most of the McCullochs do but one must consider they don't get much run time and sit on the shelf more than they get used .Kind of hard to exercise 40 -50 saws during the course of a year .
