Brand new ms 391 today

Dont let anything I have said deter you.

I used my 390 for 8 years and was very happy with it. I still am. I just got a few 70+cc saws now

I need to tear it back down and reseal the cylinder as I did not use the correct sealant And I fear an air leak. Dont have one yet but I worry.

With a sharp chain it really screams it will smoke that 250

 

But if u want to trade tell them straight up you have buyers remorse and want 441.

They start the saws to tune them anyway so thats not a deal breaker...they can tell if you put it in wood or not...unless you have Dex clean it for you and you really put it on wood, then they couldnt tell

 

Thanks clemson I will do that now is the time to fix what I will be happy with Thanks a bunch guess need to buy and change muffler fast ? I am sure I will be happy with 441

 

Thanks dexter you have been the one that has gad me thinking 441 all along all along is the mufflers the same can the gealwes change them out

 

yes muffjer mod is done Do I order A new 1 or take a or ask dealer to change them out?

 

I want 441

 

thanks dexter We got a couple different dealers I will call the one I didnt buy the saw off of and see how fast I can get a muffler and call the other dealer and ask about the trade out. A couple of years ago I wanted to down size weed eaters I had a 110 and sold it. Bought a 55 and hated it a boy at work told me the 56 had all the feathcers of the 110 ect ect and he told me to clean it up and bring it back so maybe this will work. Thank goodness It gas been raining here and I ant put it in a tree yet. I think the price gap is round 400 dollars? From what I read it is that much more of a saw do you think?

 

Good points !! Thanks clemson and chevy man. Me and my buddy cut round 75 loads last year me with a 250 and him with a 290. No problems lol and now Im woundering if a 391 is big enough lol The logger mechanic that done my muffler mods also put the 250 on a tach and turned it up. Iv not put it in a tree yet because of so much overtime at work but it sounds like a diffent saw. He said he would turn up the 390 when I broke it in. Best I can tell the weight is about the same from 390 to 441 is that right ? With Bud and weiser not helping me make decistions today and yal are I think I will be more than fine with the 390 and 400 plus dollars in my pocket. Yall the best!!

 

Dexter going back to a quesion you ask last night. The screens was took out.

 

Dex has sound advice. With a muffler modd that 391 will be closer to the 441 still won't be the same saw but as Dex said bucking a whole tree you may be a minute faster?

If u keep the 391 your $400 richer.

Call and be honest to the dealer about remorse and what would it take to get you into a 441. Dont buy the muffler yet and get it at another dealer. If you decide to trade up tell them you can't get there for a week or so due to overtime. That will allow your muffler to come in.

 

Thanks clemson Im guna be sure b4 tomorrow. May just call to know. Dave I have read big things about the 441 thanks

 

I can see certain dealers balking at the idea but a good dealer that wants go keep you happy and a return customer should do it.

If your original dealer says no and you really want a 441 try another dealer...just make sure its not the muffler dealer. Explain the situation and that they will become your "dealer" if they can make the trade.

 

Here is my 2¢, most dealers consider a saw to be used as soon as it walks out the door. Unless you immediately turned around and came back in and said I think I'd rather have a 441, they will certainly take it on trade for the 441 but they are going to try to steal it from you by offering you wholesale value for your saw against retail for the 441.

You have nothing to lose by trying the I didn't run it ploy, my humble advice; run the fuggin saw.
