STIHL MS 361 COIL REV LIMITER REPAIR MUST SEE FOR ALL STIHL OWNERS

STIHL MS 361 COIL REV LIMITER REPAIR MUST SEE FOR ALL STIHL OWNERS.
STIHL puts REV LIMITERS in their coils, (ignition modules) and sometimes they go awry and the module must be replaced. If your saw is doing what this one did it needs a new ignition module.

would that make it quit working when ur half way through a tree.

[donyboy73]

@hellraisers36 could be anything from the carb to spark issues

It's hard to see the part number on the coil but it looks like the original coil was from a hand held blower 41?? 400 1307. The coil you replaced it with looks like a 1138 400 1300 coil which is correct.. Different governed speeds, different timing. How did a blower coil get on your chainsaw?

@chainsawguy that's what came with it, maybe somebody at the dealer took parts from it??

Hi i use my dad's 361 also and i do alot of sawing,but i have 1 problem with the saw.okey it starts up catches good etc.but if u dont accelerate the throttle it'll sound like a harley not smooth like my 029.i think it might need carburator adjusting.(i'm no pro i'm only 13 yrs old soo)please answer back i really need this advice.

HELLO i have an 18.5 twin opposed briggs and i want to enable a rev limiter on it to about 5000 rpm maybe more if i feel i should, i know i have to un govern it , but my question is

how can i make a rev limiter for it i had a basic idea of putting a spring loaded flap on the carb

so it would cut air out when it gets high rpm

but then i saw this coil doing this and saw coils on push mowers do this i wanted the same

i have 4 push mowers same hp all briggs

so how can i get my coils to do this

[roudyroy1]

so thats why i couldn't blow my weedeater
