    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Yeah, the heat shield. I figured that I had only lost mine, because of my muffler mod, till Toney's bone-stock pig dropped his. He only really prunes, and maybe runs his saw through about a third of the wood that a removal arb would. Probably the heat shield's nothing to really worry about...

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Alright, so here's the latest: I'm running on a brand new handle, the lanyard takes another small swing and now the new handle's busted. I've literally got fabric soaked in J.B. Weld holding the "new" handle back together. Exactly one month later, our pruning foreman Toney, cut a very small...

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Funny you say that RopeArmour: my setup's the exact same right now--just my 201 and my 660. Finally killed my 44. But still... you gotta' know... I actually cycled two tanks of saw gas through that pig a idyl so as to break it in. My (Brad Sneller's) mods are the only thing that saved...

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Yeah Butch: before I used the disgusting pig, I'll confess that I really admired the twist-off air cleaner cover deal, cause you don't have to hunt down one of your 20 bar wrenches that you can't find. Just wait: you're gonna bump off the cover pretty soon up in the tree, and you'll be...

    Well Al: As far as I'm concerned--you're a genius. But not all of us are as technically minded as you. Man, I'd pay you to try it to mine. Certainly can't hurt the loathsome pig. Oh and Butch: you're just saying that yours runs well because you're friends with Gerry (Who wouldn't be if he...

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Yes, thanks; forgot to mention that mine also idles erratically. However, my groundman's 201 doesn't. (idyll erratically) Then again, his has fewer mods. I might have got my flywheel timing advance slightly wrong. Not much though.

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    O.k. Al, but I guess I went from love (after doing all of the Brad Sneller mod-work myself) to hating real, real quick. I hated the performance of that bone-stock pig until I did all the necessary mods--oh, and the timing advance sucked. However, after the mods, I fell in love real quick. WAY...

    201t: Cheaper Plastic???

    Just doing my part to hate on the 201 (I know, I know--just what the world needs) a little bit more, but perhaps from a bit of a different angle. By now, I'm guessing that most of you full-time arbos are figuring out that the plastic on these things suck. Mine is exactly six months old. After...
