I really appriceate your honesty, and showing the "oppsies", like the top slipping out of the rigging, and launching the facecut into the neighbors backyard lol! I always have a takeaway from watching your videos. Keep up the great work Jacob! Give your family some extra love for letting you travel around without them, and being gone. Serving overseas showed me that having family support means the world.

M-Tonic is still carbureted mon ami. Microchip controller and servo actuators to adjust carb to maximize efficiency and minimize emissions. Edit; Not sure if you actually liked the 400 or not (paused video to deal with some other stuff) but I wanted to say - if you thought it had good power now, wait until it wakes up. Every M-Tronic owner I've asked experienced a significant power jump around the 1 month mark, depending on usage. While not confirmed by Stihl, my theory is that the controller is set in a 'protected' mode until out of break-in. Once your saw gets out of break in ... wow. I was happy with my 362 (power wise) out of the box. Then it woke up. Still vibey af though. My 261? Same same, less the vibey :)

I thought there was something "wrong" with the saw since the beginning cause it always sounded pretty rich and didn't rev up very high. The m tronic thing would make sense if you consider this also.

I know this comment is late to the game, but I bought a 400 about 8 months ago too. My first 2 or 3 weeks with it I was very unimpressed.......I actually took it back to have them run a diagnostic on it because it was sluggish. But anyway, after a while using it, I love it. Maybe it had to break in, I don't know. I have had to go through the M-tronic reset procedure a few times and after that, it peps right up. So anytime I feel like its not cutting to it full potential, I'll do a reset.......Just my two cents, hope it helps someone. Love the channel by the way!

MS250, that would be a good one to review. I have a few. Ran fairly well. Drilled several hole in the muffler. Now it runs great. Last week while cutting fire wood, I ran it with out the top cover, that covers the air filter, now it out runs my 260. It runs very well. Probably shortening it's life, but it runs fast and pulls! Very happy with it. I was able to get one of the last 260's. I didn't run the 260 for several years because it was such a dog. I opened the muffler up now it runs very well. The 250 is now out cutting it, so I need to go through the 260 again. I have a few 250's and a few 025s. I like them. I have a few 026's and one 260. I like those as well. I have a 400. I like better then the 362. My favorite word cutting saw is the 046 with a 28" cannon. My 066 is kinda too heavy for me to cut fire wood. I live in n central AZ, high desert -Pinion Pine and Juniper. The Juniper holds sand! I go through bars, sprockets and chain at a very uncommon rate!

I don't know if someone has let you know about the meaning of 'cc'. Simply cc stands for cubic centimetre. The imperial equivalent measure is the term cubic inch. The rough equivalent in capacity is 1000cc's equals approximately 60 cubic inches or in chainsaw terms 50cc = 3 cubic inches.. Love your videos and cheers from the east coast of Australia.

The sweet smell in the air is probably the ponderosas. If you sniff the bark they smell like fresh baked cookies. It works best on older trees, in an area of the bark that's a bit cracked revealing the reddish inner bark with maybe a little pitch leaking out.

Love the 400 personal. They take a little longer to warm up than most saws but cut best when hot. Once saw is warm fire up with choke on and let idle with choke on for 30 second then hold throttle wide open it will sound like crap for 30 second then go wide open (don't let off). It will then jump back down from wide open. Once it has it is retuned and you can let off and go to work. Noticed a big difference in how much higher rpms where after doing this allso done it each time I mod

C.C's are cubic centimeters (a volume). A cube with one centimeter sides is one C.C so a 70CC saw would have space for 70 x one centimeter volumes in the combustion chamber. It's comparable to European and Japanese vehicles with two liter engines which are another way of saying two thousand cubic centimeters as one liter is also known as 1,000 C.C's.

Hey Jacob. We spoke on Instagram about the Rope Runner OG but just wanted to give ya a quick tip to get some gains on the power for any m-tronic saw. Since you swapped from a 25" to 20" to 28" you should reset the carbs when you swap bars that are bigger. Quick and easy to do and I promise you it will change the whole feel of the saw with throttle response and power. Even if only gains 5 to 10 secs in the cut that's saving time and time is money 💯💪🏼. Just thought I'd drop this tip for ya. Try it and let me know if it helped if you get time to reply or see this comment! Thanks for all the hard work you put into these videos as well! Hope you see this and be safe brother! 💯💪🏼

With a carburetor, that change of elevation means they need to change to a larger main jet. It needs to be bigger to compensate for that change of elevation. This isn't so of fuel injection. It does this automatically. Not only that except it burns less fuel than a carbureated engine. In North America, they use cubic inches. In Europe and Asia, they use cubic centimeters. So that's what those two letters are an acronym of.

@@oakiewoodsman The factory chain issue is there. The oregon made echo bars are usually weird drive link counts. My 24 is 81 vs the normal 84. My honest advice... buy it power head only (cheaper) and stick a tsumura or sugi on there (better and lighter.) Their bars use more "normal" driver counts, in this example 84 like the rest of the world. I run a 24 because a. i'm short and b. all I have are appalachian hardwoods to cut. I'm probably 7 or 8 gallons of fuel into that saw so far and have zero regrets. For the price paid i'm extremely happy.

That’s nice little saw! It’s a bit of an odd size in my lineup of saws though. I thought hard about getting a 400 but I went with a 261c-m and had the muffler ported and it rips really good with a 20” lightweight bar. Had it out limbing and bucking up some really large bitter cherry trees on my job site. It was hogging through and chunking down 16-18” cherry trees like a champ.

you never tie off/ rope off on an open end of the tree, you always need it around a higher part of the tree that has a cross section or massive knot.

That’s correct about the altitude but it’s more to do with air density there’s less oxygen up there than sea level I know from dirt bikes the altitude even robs power from a 450cc fuel injected bike

It’s a little while down the road, I know…. but it sounded like that 400 was 4 stroking way too much. It could be that it needed the Mtronic system reset or some other thing. It should definitely be running clean all the way through the high end until it’s at the top and then it’d be expected for the 4 stroking to show up. You know way more about saws than me but I’m looking at the 400cm in the near future. I have a 261c and ADORE that saw. I’m expecting the 400 to be even better. Great climbing, great footage, fun to watch!

I noticed you stand directly behind the cut when blocking down. Or chunking. If you move to the left and stand beside the cut it don't jerk you as bad. It only moves the rigging. I feel better when I did

just so you know CC stands for Cubic centimeter. when we talk about engine displacement. Most car engines are measured in Liters witch is 1000cc so 5.0 Ford mustang has 5000cc engine.

Fyi; cc = cubic centimeters. The displacement of the cylinder. 1000 cc = 1 liter. So for example an 6 liter V6 engine is 6000 cc, or 1000cc / 1 liter pr cylinder. It's measured by bore * stroke. A 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine with a bore of 100mm (10cm) and a stroke of 50mm (five cm) can be calculated out by taking Pi (3.1416), divided by four, multiplied by the bore (10cm) squared, multiplied by the stroke (five cm), and multiplied by four (cylinders), to give 1570cc

You should try a 562xp next or Echo 620P next (or maybe the 680). I think the 60-70 cc saw class is about the top end of what most people need (farm saw, firewood saw ect). Following up with a different option from one of the other saw makers would give a more direct comparison.

I havto run premium bar oil the $9/gallon stuff will literally burn up on the bar leaving black staining
