Thanks MustangMike! Dad believes he’s bought it around ‘95 but my understanding is 046’s weren’t out until early ‘96?
The saw runs fantastic, he gave it to me 4 years ago as it had been sitting for about 10 years in the shed. He says he’s put 2 chains on it since the original. I put new fuel lines & diagrams/ gaskets in the carb and it runs like no other (to me).
I don’t have a tach but I have the high side tuned to a hard 4 stroke no load (once hot) and with a sharp chain cleans up with no 4t in the cut. I’m no stihl worshipper but I have Ultra stocked up and run it at 36:1.
I’ve been reading the porting series threads started by Mastermind and would love to practice on scrap cylinders, but this 46 will stay stock. Any idea on build date of the saw? Thanks again
