By: Chainsawrepair Date: October 23, 2013, 10:14 pm --------------------------------------------------------- When I was selling the stihl 084 the other day. The buyer ask the year of the saw :-\. All I could remember was they were made from about 1986 to ?? I guessed to early 1990's when GUESSING AGAIN the 088 came out :-[. Anyone know the build dates of the 084? When did the stihl 088 start being sold too? Thanks. #Post#: 26028-------------------------------------------------- Re: Stihl 084 years made ?

By: 660magnum Date: October 23, 2013, 11:01 pm --------------------------------------------------------- The dates a chainsaw was made was not too much of an indication as to when they were finally sold or put into service. Due to their cost, and the need for such a big chainsaw, many 084's sat around the dealers for years before they finally went out the door? Take notice that it was 3 yrs - 4mos between the time they stopped making the 084 and initial production of the 088 but it may have been another 6 or 8 mos before the 088's started showing up on shelves at the dealers for they were made in Germany? My Dolmar 6000 (now a 6800) is a 1997 model according to the serial number but I know that it may have not arrived at the dealer until the next year? Then it could have sat at that dealer on the shelf for a couple years? Then the guy traded it in on a unused red top Dolmar 6400 in 2010. That 6400 had sat on the shelf for several years for it had been 5 years since Dolmar even made a red top 6400? I bought a new Dolmar 6421 March 2011. The dealer ordered it from the distributor just for me and I took it out of the sealed box. It had been made 7 months before. Farther more, it had been run at the factory. I never ran it before converting to a 7900 and it started normally like I had just used it the day before. #Post#: 27756-------------------------------------------------- stihl 084 barn find By: stihls066 Date: November 18, 2013, 8:40 pm --------------------------------------------------------- picked this barn find 084 up along with 2 066's fresh gas and a couple pulls the 084 fired up but smoking really bad. thinking its the case seal for the oil reservoir. anyone got a top shroud, air filter cover, and ignition? ***************************************************** (DIR) Previous Page (DIR) Next Page
