Ready again girls..any installation tips ?

Or a 441 he said.

1.3 hours actual run time on the hour meter ms440 k&n,wish these fit more saws .View attachment 143318 View attachment 143319

The HD type OEM filters, fit all the bigger pro saws the same, 440-880.

How come the K&N will only fit the 440?

Because the rain cover seals the open end ,no steel plate like the stock one has ,and its too thick to fit the black flange the hd2 seals against like the 460-461-660 have .

It works on the flat top 064 and 066 also with the hd filter setup .

0000 124 0800 is the part number for the inner filter in stihl's 440 ipl. I believe it fits just fine.

 

[tree monkey]

that number won't fit the k&n, but I might have some that will

your filter has a hole in it

 

[junkman]

your filter has a hole in it

The rain cover seals it up ,look at the surface area on the pleats of the paper ,much more than the hd2

 

[RedGas]

your filter has a hole in it

To be effective, it should really have more than one hole (and smaller).

Ok Ryan your turn ,what's it look like today ?

 

[tree monkey]

either he didn't go to work today or he's still at it.

I wander how big those trees were? and how thin the cookies are?

 

[tree monkey]

or how long he ran it without the filter?

someone once said there's no such thing as a stupid question

You must have photoshopped that..just like I did

 

[sawmikaze]

Ummmmmmmmm

That's right. We've got time to spend an hour dicking around with the air filter after every four minutes of runtime ... but we don't have the 5 minutes it takes to fix it once and for all. Job security!

You know what, you're absolutely right...everybody should go to the lawn and garden store after they leave the stihl dealer to buy rubber cock rings for the filtration system of a 1000 dollar chainsaw...I wonder why everyone doesn't know that to begin with ?

If I thought there was a coherent answer for that I'd come up with one ... I'm fresh out

You know what, you're absolutely right! It's the principle of the thing!

So instead of spending 25¢ and three minutes to fix the problem once and for all, you should just say FUKKIT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO FIX IT ... and run it the way it is ... and then burn up your $1000 saw simply because your air filter flops around in its housing like an empty beer can in a bucket at the beach.

THAT'LL SHOW THOSE AWFUL, EVIL STIHL ENGINEERS!!!1!1!!

WINNER!!1!1!1!!!1
