Greatest video on KZfaq. My parts should arrive soon for converting my new 201TC-M to T. If I'm going to lose an engine from running lean, it's going to be my fault. Not leaving it to chance with the Mtronic system.

I have a 462 at his shop! Can’t wait to get that thing back lol

Awesome video,I've been wanting to switch my362 from mtronic to reg carb. Tired of solenoid problems and no way of fixing in the field. Thanks.

Great video and conclusion, I’ve noticed exactly what you’re talking about differences in tune to cut. It’s difficult to keep it adjusted from one day to the next for optimal performance vs the M-Tronic auto turning between days or cuts.

Nice work , thanks for the upload !

Nice work,thank you for sharing.

If it’s not broke don’t fix it .....reg carb has worked just fine...good job

Kick ass !!! nice work :)

nice video .here in the philippine we only have a standard carb for the 462 which is good.

What a great test. Thx for all your knowledge what you guys share with us. Greetz from Germany

I see Julian has been sweeping

That Tsumura bar is a thing of beauty!!!

I have a 462 from Greece. Excellent saw. Is Scott doing better? Sure hope so

The problem I have with the m-tronix saw is the cost to replace the ignition module, $175. The saw I have, a MS261C-M has run 5 years and the module failed. Is it less expense in the long run to convert it to a standard carb and ignition? There are a lot of after market parts available. Or maybe buying a Husqvarna saw and sell the Stihl for parts.

Interesting. I bought a non M Tronic 462 a few months ago. Dealer said that was all he could get due to the chip shortage. I like simplicity but was thinking I should convert to electronic to always have the optimum tune without any fiddling. Maybe I should rethink that.

Have a parts # list? Mines doing just fine now but few years down the road standard carb might be the way to go!! I cut firewood not a professional logger so Mines not getting ran daily which worries me on m tronic longevity.

I’m in the states and managed to get my hands on a standard model🤙🏼 the problem I’m running into is the stock carb adjustment only gives me less than a full turn. Did you gjys figure a solution to get past the stock adjustment stops?

So to swap over not only do I need the carb but also the new coil and fly wheel? Would it still work with the mtronic coil and an adjustable carb?

New carb and a rocked chain. I love m tonic we need to find a way to tune it, they need a bit more fuel.

Can be this done with stihl FS560 c em brushcutter?

Awesome video, so the parts you need for this swap are the Carb, flywheel and ignition coil from a non M-TRONIC 462 and you're good to go?

Thanks guys!

Bravo

I hate the new mtronic crap. Just found 2 261s with out it still on shelf had to buy them while I still could

Got a ms441c with mtronic. Is it possible to do the conversion? If so where can I find it? Thanks. Great video!

which mark of this bar ?

What was the point to change it??

Seems like it's got more torque with the standard carb setup

I've been looking at buying a new saw and tossing up between the 491 and the 462 obviously the 462 as the mtroniks. Is it better just to get one with manual carb adjustment?

The M tronics are prone to fail in very dry dusty conditions such as a wildland fire application the air filters stop up way to fast

Hi, the components you used of which model are? Here in Italy they sell only the version with m / tronic. Did you find any great differences with the classic carburetor? Thanks for the video

Color me dumb. However, do the 462 c machines have the m tronic system? Or only the 462 cm inits have m tronic system?

Put some full skip chain on that bad boy 🤘

Look guys you proved what I have suspected for a while and that you get absolutely no gain from it. Its main purpose is too make it impossible to change your carburetor settings and make guys have to bring your saw in for expensive diagnostics because you cannot figure out what’s wrong with it. I think your wrong saying its better to use m tronic because different trees or limbing requires different carb settings, if it cut thru those blocks better then it will do everything better. All my m tronic saws stall when starting just as i saw yours do, thats not a great feature!

So there is no use for an unlimited coil here?

Put a coil on off a 440 or 460

Can this be done with the 661

One of Mtronic's biggest failings is a lack of qualified repair people and those who are forced to shotfun a repair instead of diagnostics that point to the failed component. I suspect the non Mtronics will be running for years after the Mtronic saw is dead and buried from lack of parts or from excessive cost to repair.

whats the point of messing with them for 1 sec difference ? I don't get it

Not as good ..... no sticker hahaha thanks J &TM

A company.puts a wire on something and every old timer in the world craps their pants

32:1 only hahahahahahahaha what a waste. 50:1 thats what Stihl recommends you guys running all that oil in the gas thinking you are adding protection kills me. You are doing nothing but letting less gas through the carb. fuel cools and makes power not oil!!
