Torn intake boot or something not tight...
Very close. You need to tighten the intake boot clamp. It it creates a small air leak that the m-tronic will compensate for but the saw does not run well.Torn intake boot or something not tight...
Amazing, and that was at an authorized service center previously? For an extended period of time?Very close. You need to tighten the intake boot clamp. It it creates a small air leak that the m-tronic will compensate for but the saw does not run well.
So we tightened her up. Opened the muffler up a tad and advanced the ignition timing.
I do believe that made her a whole new saw compared to what’s been happening for awhile.

I have. I actually have one personally and 2 more extra cylinders. Lol. @RP81 git to run it yesterday. along with building several others. I know this is one saw that still has potential I haven’t unlocked.Excellent, well done Carl! Have you had a your hands on a 661 for porting?
We all make mistakes. The main point of this is even though there MT or AT you need to treat them as a chainsaw. When Ryan was here yesterday I had just pulled one off the bench. We went to test run her and it was a fail. Wouldn’t run right and was lean as hell. Today I pulled her back down to find I had cut the new impulse line a tad to long and it had kinked. 15 min later this is what I got.

Appears that Miller Mod Saws has saved the day! Good job..
Yessir, he ran it for somewhere around 6 months this way!!!I’ve got a game for this thread. @RP81 brought a 661C that was rebuilt by a dealership. I believe they said they had it for 6 months. Saw wasn’t quite running right. But they’ve ran it for 6 months. Correct me if I’m wrong Ryan.
Any way symptoms are. It was always rich. Wouldn’t cleanup up. Just like you had it set way to rich. Any guesses what the issue was?
I’m gonna imply the KISS theory.
Keep it simple stupid. Lol.
Whoops, missed that.M-tonic. So it adjusts itself.
