Actually this one ran flawless in stock form but it's far from stock now and it needs calibrated so it will maybe learn to fuel properly. The first segment of calibration requires 30-60 seconds of idle time and it will only idle 10 seconds before it dies. They actually are dependable saws

It passed every test the dealers have ran it through. Pres/vac, fuel system pressure, injector pop off. The damn thing just needs to idle long enough to run through calibration. All total I have about 6 hours in standing around at 3x dealers. I'm sending it to some guy in Wisconsin next

Zip tie the throttle open
That'll straighten it out.

Left it at this last dealer for a week. He claimed the jug was heavily scored on the intake side. So I pulled it apart, absolutely nothing wrong with the jug or piston. I bolted a stock jug and slug on it just to see if it acts the same. I suspect it will run as well as a stock one would due to the parameters the electronics are used to working with. But this will rule out other issues

Bmw has pay to use subscription for heated seats. Following that stihl will take a page out of that book soon enough.

Dealer only service items can go fuck themselves

Eye got nothing for sail. But that mfr runs

And I wouldn't trade 1 500i for 6 old huskys. Not that I am brand loyal at all. Just know what works to make money
