I can't let mine run a saw unsupervised. The first time she did she did okay. The second time she kept the throttle engaged while she walked up to the next cut.ya sure? i taught her to throw knives, shoot a bow, rifle and pistols.
No more of that. I won't let her shoot. She has no muzzle control, and won't index her finger on a empty chamber.

Well I could not take it anymore. Had to get it out and have a look around. I like the looks of it. Looks like it shares a few parts from the new style 880s.

Strato engine?

Also installed an outerwears pre filter. Have used them for years. Helps to keep the pleats in the filter from packing tight with dust/chips
Also found this interesting to find a russian made bosch plug.

Just wanted to post a few side by side pics. My 780 on the left and 881 on the right. A little slimmer in width. Also with the cylinder tilted back more, it pushes the powerhead weight towards the rear handle better then an 880. Should be a pretty balanced saw with the right bar.

I used the 4502 tool. Just like most walbro carbs it is just a plastic cap. These have a metal washer right beyond the plastic. I would think a drywall screw would get you there. Nothing like the 7310 echo if you are familiar with those.
No on the strato. No fresh air charge. Has an intake manifold like the 201t. Held on by 4 bolts. Smaller square intake in the middle. 2 longer rectangles above and to the sides of the intake.

I thought strato saws have a separate butterfly above or below the carb for the fresh air charge. 881 doesn't have that. It does have a plastic divider in the manifold.
Maybe I dont know what strato is.
Watched a video from stihl on 2mix engine. https://www.stihl.com/2-mix-technology-economical-and-with-good-lugging-power.aspx
Not sure how that works with no air valve.
