What do you guys think about huskys flip caps for fuel and oil ?? I myself love em . Until last week I reckon I was the only 1 around here to put em on all my saws . When I bought my 390 I also bought a 465 r for limbing , topping , mainly to keep on my crawler for have to have situations . Got em home after buying em and was like wth , never saw a flip caps on a husky til I got my 465 . 10 mins later they were on my 390 . Ordered my right then . Now as of last week my bro-in law and nephew are running on 2 395's .

They are much better than the stihl floppy caps... and they stay cleaner/are easier to clean off. Also, if they break there is a little spot to put a scrench into to open them so your not screwed... literally lol.

I like them, screw cap with extra leverage what's not to like.

They'll fit on some Dolkitas too.

They work on any model with the same diameter, they are just screw in with the flip as a nice little lever. I used them on my dolmar 421 too. No alignment issues like the Stihl ones

That's what I love about em most ( no alignment issues ) years ago I was cutting a big veneer white oak with my 660 mag , ran tank out at most crucial point with 24 bar buried . Needless to say the Nascar pitstop for fuel was not impressive due to cap alignment sucked in a hurry !

I still don't know what was wrong with the old caps, but now that I've got used to the flip caps, I kinda' like 'em.

Should’ve been easy with a 660. They have screw-in caps
