the muffler flange is too far away from the cylinder as far as mass to cool it off much

It can get heat soaked

It may work good. Be hard to tell without a FLIR gun like Redbull was using.

Just get a glass of ice water and pour it in the muffler if it gets too hot,

Jon1212 · Jun 27, 2017

Great....now I find out that in addition to being loud, and dangerous, chainsaws also get really hot? Fugg that! Now I'm definitely never going to run one.

See if you were to buy one of these you would know that it's hot...... it says right on it

If ones really anal about heat, one could extend the fins and maybe open the cover to do so in parts.

But the Krauts ain't dumb. There's a damn good reason those fins are where they are, are the size they are, and the cover closed it off where it does.

The magic one, that told him removing paint from a bar made his saw 100° cooler?

Just curious if anyone has any experience using this Stihl MS660 Copper Cooling Plate. I bought one and plan to try it as soon as I get some time. It seems good in theory.
I never really noticed my 660 running that hot at all.

Looks like those copper tangs would slow the airflow down/restrict movement near those fins.

RI Chevy · Mar 31, 2018

I think the theory behind it is to get heat from the jug to the exhaust quicker then dissipate the heat outside. I have one on my 660. Haven't really noticed anything positive or negative. Lol

What a joke. Seller is a scam artist. If you're having issues burning up topends, this will do NOTHING to help you.

RI Chevy · Mar 31, 2018

Your not believing it Brad? I was really just more curious than anything. Lol
Figured I'd give it a try. Lol
I checked with Mike. Said it really couldn't hurt anything.

blsnelling · Mar 31, 2018

Not even a little bit. The cooling system is designed for air to flow over and through the fins of the cylinder. If anything, this gimmick blocks air flow.

RI Chevy · Mar 31, 2018

Should I remove it? Do you think it is hurting the saw?

Yes, remove it. Hurting? Probably not. Restricting air flow? Yes. As previously stated: cut the goofy protrusions off (with the letters on them) and just use it as an exhaust gasket.
