Stick to 32:1 and that saw will out live you I preach that to all the guys who I've built the clone saw's for they are just like the old saw 32:1 is where it's at with these saw's have fun and be safe.I bought a Holzforma 660 and tested it today for the first time. Started very easy. Idled flawless.I let it warm up and cut non-stop on 26" rounds until empty. Filled up and checked high side and it was 11.3k. Raised it to 12k for break in and ran another tank through it. The oiler flowed fine set on max. I raised idle up to 2700. The saw would sit and idle all day I believe. I know with just 2 tanks that is no where near enough to tell, but I am very happy with it's performance so far. I am running 32:1 schaeffers 7000 through it.

I dont run saber, but it seems to be a good oil.I've been running Amsoil Saber at 40:1 in them w/o any problems. That is what I run in all my 2 cycle, including M Tronic, and they all like it!
You're just the lucky one. Lol. I do run 40:1 one in my 064 but I feel better running 32:1 in the clones but everyone has there preference.I've been running Amsoil Saber at 40:1 in them w/o any problems. That is what I run in all my 2 cycle, including M Tronic, and they all like it!
Edit: I read so much on this foum, didn't realize it's my first post, so Hi
I've had my 660 clone for bout a year and a half, probably 25 tanks through it so far with no problems knock on wood....except the oiler kinda stingy even on just a 24", changed hose put a "HO" Ireland pump but it's still not as sloppy as I'd like lol. About 1/2 tank of oil left for 1 tank of gas.
Compared to the 60cc chainsaws I normally run for firewood duty, man when I need a bigger saw it's real nice to have around I enjoy running it.
Check and make sure that the tank vent is working properly and yes check the hose all it takes is a little split in it or just plane to small off a opening.Edit: I read so much on this foum, didn't realize it's my first post, so Hi

Try a different pump without modifying it then go from there stalk oem Stihl ms660 oil pump will oil a 32 inch bar with out a problem and the farmertec ones to so its possible that the pump you're using is not good and check the mettle drive arm on the wermgear if you can hold the gear and you can still spin that arm then that is a problem for you also replacing it should change the outcome of your problem to hope you get it fixedYep I changed the tank vent to oem and modded the oil pump both to no avail..
