Is Husky's Air injection still better than Stihl's?

[PissRev]

I don't want to rustle any jimmies with these videos, but here it clearly shows Husky saws with much cleaner air filters after the tests are completed. Are the new Stihl saws still bad at removing particulates before it reaches the filter?

That wasn't a Stihl they clearly blocked out the name. It was rigged! !!! lol! It makes you wonder if Sthil corporate just doesn't give a poo?

the husqvarna "air injection" system consist in the centrifugal depuration of air.
this system of depuration I think it was studied by husqvarna for the first time.
at this moment many chainsaws Stihl they have a system of depuration air, similar of husqvarna "air injection".

Some newer model stihl's have the spin filtration now. It does help keep the filter cleaner and requires much less filter maintenance.

Maxflow ftw!!

Yes. The system on the MS261CM is good, but it still pulls in chips around the throttle wire opening.

Now try that husky vs a 441.

Not mine but here's another video

Air injection doesn't mean not having to clean air filter at all. They all get dirty eventually. Just means you can go longer without cleaning.

The 395 system is the best I've seen

I am not impressed with the 562/2260 filtration at all...

Eeyup, i agree. When i was felling back in 2012 with a 562, it was more like the stihls, but worse. I had the felt filter and it sucked dirt in from the filter base. Then i greased it, but that only lasts for 6.3333333321937 hours so couldn't even make it a day without pullen the filter. When i retired the saw in 2013 in had lots of wear on intake side of piston

That being said, that 562 impressed me and others, felling and buck'n timber with a 28 inch bar buried most the time. Yes the filter system needs to be improved before i get another 562, and also get rid of that stupid purge bulb!

It is funny to me that some Saws with the pre air separation are less effective then some without. And then some that are just amazing.

The air injection on my 2171, 2152 and 350 are amazing.

yeah, I'm agree! the air system on my husqvarna 357xp is very efficentys.
in the same time the deposited dust is much less.

394/395 is the cats meow. 262 and 372 ok. 346 sucks.

lots of rotten Huskies, 545/550 filtration sucks also.
Btw, I think Husky upgraded their filterholder & filter nowadays on 562.

On some of the classic ones like 242 and 254 I like to place a thin oring between the airfilter & holder, seen to much leak there.

My Jonsered 930 super is amazing for a saw with no air injection. I guess some are good designs.

But Jonsered has TURBO!
