I want to pass along a cheap, quick fix to a small problem I encountered with my 661 that some of you may find helpful.
Back in December I was bucking oak logs for a buddies logging operation when the top corner of my crankcase cracked/broke where the felling spike bolts to it. Air temps were in the upper 20’s, lower 30’s if memory serves me right, and this happened after my last refuel (9th tank for the day) so the saw was plenty warm, and had been for a while. I noticed it as I was packing up for the day, but hadn’t noticed it the last time I sharpened the chain, etc, so it was fresh. I keep a good eye on my saw.. Pictures will show what happened. Following posts will show the “fix” and also how it’s holding up..
