661 coils

[Keith Gandy]

My tach stops at 9k on a 661.
Stihl tach by the way. Lol

A edt 8 or 9 will read mtronics

Seems like the Euro coil ain't as strong ?

That was my 1st thought too

I gave my edt8 away.
Slowest peice of junk ever.

It's limited so I'll have to adjust, time, and repeat. That's what we're going to do today. There's .2 seconds difference in cut times to the 4700 right there.

The limiter is part of the funny sound. The fast tach reads all the coils so far.

That 4700c sounded to carry more rpm in cut

My tach is the fastest I've seen but don't work on limited saws which to me if I know it's limited then I don't have any reason to check it.

It did. I'll try this carb a touch leaner and then richen it up off the limiter and try it.

Everyone I've done the 4700 was the strongest. All mtronic though

Mike and Jason, Im interested to hear yalls opinions on the 661 vs 066/660, 394/395, 390

I wouldn't sell a good 385/390 to get one unless you just don't want to tune it anymore. 661 just feels like a little different 390 to me with similar power.

Ive ran a 661c with a muffler mod with a 32" bar buried in oak and it pulled like a freight train. Seems they like a long bar buried to hit that sweet spot!!

They are good runners. Just not sure it's worth a premium over a 390 unless you bleed stihl[emoji12]

[mdavlee]

I'd trade a 064/066 for one.

The 661 with a 32es light balanced awesome also. Kinda blew my mind! Should be a fallers dream in bigwood

One could also send a 661 to get hacked up too. Lol
Come back better, faster, stronger. [emoji6]
