Stihl 14" & 16" light bar

As in capital R?

I just got off the phone with the local dealer. He said they don't carry them in Canada because there was little demand for them, as the weight reduction (30%) was not a big enough selling factor. The bars are apparently significantly more expensive. Only in the USA I guess.

The E light isn't available here either, I tried to get one a couple of years ago.

Cool. Thanks for checking down there Dylan.

Stuff like that I just shop on line for. If I go in my dealer here and ask for an E Lite bar, I get the deer in the head light look ... They can't hardly operate a computer to get the Stihl IPL on the screen and then search through it. Sooooooo
For example.. I asked for 3 starter pawls for my 046.... I had lost one in the gravel yesterday putting in a new starter rope. I was supposedly handed three in different envelopes. I went to the register and started to consolidate them... One envelope empty, one wrong, one right... I went back into the stock room and pulled them myself

That's sad, Stephen. Why don't you open a saw shop yourself?

Surprising as it might seem some dealers just aren't familiar with looking up parts .I generally look them up myself prior to going to the shop .However as it's been stated a zillion times all dealers are not equal .

Often you can't blame someone for not knowing a part or repair method, they can look it up, but when they get the I don't know and I'm not really interested either look, it makes you wonder. I had that with a broken saw recently. So what if the shop employee was maybe in diapers when the model came out.

I don't do idle real well

When it's time to idle, I can idle with the best of them................and it's almost time to idle!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Vacation I can Idle.. but only for a while. Few days of idle and I am looking for more action.

 

[Burnham]

Practice, Stephen...you just need more practice .
