The one with the snapped crank looks like a bitsa. The reo on the handle was replaced by an integral on in the handle

I replace a lot of handles sliding around in the back of the ute it wears the corners of the handles down thin and they snap, not sure what a reo or an integral is but think I know what you mean that's off an 088...When the hr's get way up there the clutch is about the first to go and the oil drive gets thin and the end snaps off, of course they stop oiling when that happens...

No it had the old kind of filter its an 066 the rubber sealing lip was all broken away on that saw.. We have a few 66's of all kinds- new/ old /squashed/broken/dirty/ clean/part saws....
Looking at getting two 661 I've had time on one and yeah nice saw I like.. Just not sure how they will hold up to abuse just yet, the old 66's take plenty of abuse and come back for more! haha....

HAHAHAHA actually the amount of coffee to put in each basket is nearly as hotly contested as the topic you have touched on there, oil brands being replaced with grinders
we do have it much simpler with the variables being
Oil/Mix
Amount
Brand
95/98ron
All agree on Ethanol free
Even I can juistify premium oil not so much grinders

grinders... some have 3-$4000 grinders on kitchen bench

which basket
VST v EP precision v OEM
above have own oem stated capacity but depending on drink/variety of bean/roast depth/personal preference
One can put more or less that stated capacity

HX v 1 boiler v Dual Boiler
.
.
.
too late to continue/cant possibly cover it all but it is as or more complex than our chosen points of banter here on AS

looks like we might have claimed another victim, had a mate looking for a 7901 today.....i checked my local total tools who supplied mine 5 year ago and turns out the new version has a much higher rrp $2399. dunno whats updated on it though, noticed it has black top covers though. the older style we know and love is now selling for $1650 ish. anyway he settled on a shindaiwa 757. so i figured i best steer him here
