ms 462

I’d rather run a manual adjustment carb on a mill imho than autotune/mtronic. Just my gut feeling. Can set it rich to protect it.

The 661 ran real rich I thought with the latest coil at the time. I don’t care to own more than 2-3 saws how so it needs to do everything if it wants to stay

If it won’t hold up on there I’d call it a fail. I milled a lot of stuff with a 34” bar on 460s and some with 372s and 044. 20” wide stuff and down. I used a 357 husky some too

Are you home yet?

To the 462

They run pretty darn good with just a little muffler mod.

Are you home yet?

Yes and no. Headed to Arkansas today. I was home from Tuesday to last night. I did cut some pine trees off a fence last night with the extra sausage 562. Got the piss knocked out of me when the fence wasn’t dead grounded out [emoji15]

I can't believe you left it behind... Team Stihl card may get revoked...

Well I'm not the guy who runs out and buys the newest thing out there! Besides I think I'll like this better and it's proven itself already!

I have to be careful what I say as I still have one of those left to sell but if you handle them side by side...

I did pick up both the 461 and 462. The 461 is noticeably larger and heavier and it should its it's a larger saw! Im ok with all of that!

My local dealer still has no clue regarding the 462 or 500i.

You want this one?

 

[RI Chevy]

LOL. No thank you. I am with you on this. In a hold pattern. I'll catch the 2nd wave maybe.

 

[MustangMike]

Don't worry Jeff, I'll let you pull the trigger at the GTGs!!!

 

[RI Chevy]

Thanks Mike!

I keep getting conflicting timelines on the 500i. The local dealer here just got to play with one in Calgary a couple weeks ago and was told then that we would be seeing them very soon in Alberta. And yet the dealer that I do 95% of my business with emailed me a couple weeks ago saying that he just got word that we wouldn’t be seeing them until March of 2020.

I would like to think we will see them sooner then later but we still can’t get a wrap handle for the 462 yet so I don’t have real high hopes of seeing the 500i any time soon. But I have been wrong before, quite often actually lol
