I purchased my fs74 15-17 years ago & I've always used the Stihl (red line).105 From time to time I think I could use something a little tougher when using it near a Privacy Fence. Sometimes some big stalks behind it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I tried larger string on my FS76, and the bigger size added more weight, dragging the rpm's down to a bogging, ineffectual speed. Doing so will lead it to a early death, imho.

How about an oregon jet fit head. Second to using an actual blade. Whether it fits straight on or not depends on what head you currently have installed.
