60cc Awesomeness, who is king?

Neat feature on the auttune when plugged in it gives how many hours, min and sec it has been ran

I wish you guys talked in hours used, not years or seasons or whatever other useless timelines speak goes on.

How many hours of general pro forestry work does one of these modern saws last before top end rebuild? Bottom end rebuild? How many hours between piston changes? What is the design life of the machine? What are manufacturer recommended intervals between minor amd major maintenances?

I realize usage type determines much of this, but there are somewhat standards or expected life, or what?

The newer Strato-saws run leaner and hotter than the old and simply will not last as long ! Fuel and mix oil is CRITICAL with these saws much more so than previous models ... sure they use 20% less fuel and produce 60% less emissions - how did they do it ? I will post STIHL version and let Dustin explain to the forum how it operates as according to him in just a hack !

 

[Frank Rizzo]

here it is folks ... now maybe Dustin can extrapolate on its virtues !

 

[dustinwilt68]

You said it, your just a hack, I agree.

Holeycow said the same thing Im fixing to, just in a different way. How many of you loyal fanboys ACTUALLY USE A SAW TO MAKE A LIVING, TO KEEP A ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD AND YOUR FAMILY FED??? I do. Stihl vs Husky will always be a debate. I use what works best for ME. As of right now, I own 3 stihls and 11 husqvarnas. HUSQVARNA is what keeps me fed and clothed. I got the stihls just to give them an honest comparision. I typically get at least 5 years out of a saw before a major teardown. I don't keep up with the hours but I normally move around 1.5 MILLION ft of timber a year. Now lets get to that major teardown part: buy me an OEM top end for a stihl, how much is it? I can get a OEM husky from my dealer for 150 bucks. Now lets crush one: fuel tank for husky OEM is 100 bucks. Starter assembly is around 50. Handle bars are 50. The only way stihl can compete with husky is if you get china parts!

I didn’t say it ; YOU did ... and I don’t agree ! Now kindly explain how the Strato engine works ... cmon kid you’re on stage with the microphone on and spotlight shining bright ! Please don’t disappoint us !

Does this have to do with auto-tune or m-tronic? It's about the piston pin.

Right ! At least someone is paying attention !!! Lol

Stratto saws just don't push out any left over fuel after ignition, they pull the leftover fuel back in and it gets used, that's what makes them more epa friendly and more efficient, there is no wasted fuel in a stratto design. All companies are moving toward these type of saws to meet the new guidelines that will change in 2021

064 Stihl ported by Huskstihl, he is on the other side, Kenin is his actual name, he has my 385 right now

Ok. I see. Is that the old version of the ms661?

 

[dustinwilt68]

Way older, 85cc they still have one of the best power to weight ratios there is

No 562 I have ever heard of or seen has ever been retofitted with a standard carb!

EHP/Ed Heard put a RWJ-4 on a 562 several years ago. He also used a 562 for falling. That saw (std. AT) ported has cut over 2 million bd. ft.
Shep

What does a 361 have to do with a 562?
