    Thinking of getting a tune up kit for one of my mtronic Stihls...fuel filter, air filter and spark plug. Will the mtronics need to be reset or will it adjust automatically after i put them in? 201cm top handle saw.

    I would think it would re-adjust.
    Maybe huskihl has some input

    It’s usually a safer bet to do the reset or calibration, depending on which era the saw is from.

    Don't be cheap and buy aftermarket junk.

    Those 99 cent tune up kits out there are just that , junk.

    Definitely OEM! Nothing stings like a few hundred dollar repair because you saved a few bucks.

    Ya never know, I might buy a Husqvarna 543XP, have Kevin port it and fall in love with it soooo much that I give the 241 to my nephew.

    I may happen anyway. Not the saw giveaway part lol. The Husqvarna love. I'm an equal opportunity saw owner. I'm basically color blind with them.
