You know, so many people have rivals between Stihls and Huskys, and if you like one, you HAVE to hate the other.
They both make very good saws, and they both have had a few BAD ones too!!
People around here claim that Stihls have more low end power, but Husqvarnas cut faster. Both of those statements are true, but it all comes down to chain speed. I have 8 tooth sprockets (instead of the stock 7) on both my 288's. They SCREAM through the little wood, and then slow down to "normal" in the big wood. Stihls have tiny sprockets, move the chain slow, have ALL the power in the world, little or big wood, but are slow!! Put a bigger sprocket on them, and you wouldn't know the difference.
I only have 2 "dislikings" towards Stihls, 1, most of the ones I have seen are very hard starting in the cold (20 degrees and colder), and 2, they are just kind of ugly?! :P I don't like the orange/white color scheme. I like my screaming orange ones!! Easier to find!!!

I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
