FarmerTec Huztl MS660 Updated Build Kit - Build Thread

[Bedford T]

Most of the jets are. . 62 which we both know that's way to small considering the ms460 comes stalk with a . 70 and I believe when i modified my jet i think my jet is pretty close to that now. Lol and what a world of difference that made.

Did you actually measure it? I wonder if it might actually be smaller than .62. That was my point. I have one new in the box I will get it measured or at least try.

We always need to be aware. How often do companies offer to meet a warranty obligation? Depends. The extra warranty is our only recourse on eBay. Did Mityvac say they were not authorized? Caveat emptor

Yeah, MityVac said they weren't an authorized dealer. Also the eBay seller claimed it was brand new, so a couple bucks saved off Amazon (haven't looked at the price there) probably wasn't worth it.

I bought a oem one and took the farmertec one out of the carb and with the jet reamer I tride both of them on it one at a time and they were both the same but all jets can very well be a little bit off.

If a saw is running to good do you all think you are just awesome because it is cutting like a lightsaber or does it cross your mind that it might be running a touch lean?

So looking at OEM options for carbs I'm finding a few different walbro models. The WJ-65, WJ-67, WJ-69 and WJ-76. I see the WJ-76 has a bigger jet but also seems too cheap to be right. Only about $38. The WJ-67 is priced on baileys for $172.

Can anyone shed some insight on this?

I will show you the one to buy. It's the 76. It's actually the Stihl carb. I think it was less than 60. It will be later today before I can get the info. It comes from a walbro dealer. Fully tuneable

MG bought a tolliston recently. I think he said he paid about 55$

I assume the difference in the carbs is the jet size. The Walbro number corresponds to the size of the jet. Different carbs would be used in the same saw at different altitudes. So, the WJ 76 comes with the .076 thou jet orifice. Seems like the option for sea level. You guys realize that you can get a set of hole gauges to check the diameter of the holes right? The fuel flow is adjustable regardless of the jet orifice size as well. You can drill out the jet orifice using the proper size bit and your fingers to turn it. After drilling out the hole, make sure there is a chamfer on the input side of the jet. Again, a bigger bit and just spin it with your fingers... Only takes a minute. Ithe hard part will be finding the .076 bit...

i used a jet reamer to get the jet size i wanted they work best for small engine carbs.

Here's something else i did today to late to send it back now. Lol. It's a good carb so I'm going to keep it. So theres other tricks of the trade not to many people do but for me doing stuff like this just makes me feel better. I polish the choke side of the carb and took a ber out of the hump that's in the center of the carb body as well.

And tomorrow i will be using the jet reamer to open up the jet its to small it is also a .62 or .65 jet. But it's just like the walbro wj carbs you can change out the jet.

@MG porting how did you re-attach? Polishing is likely a great idea

Those nipple fittings are just a prest fit so you can take them out and they are tight but it can be done I might make a short video for you if you like but it would be a sell phone video it might be ruff. Lol. Polishing the choke side of the carb isn't to tuff just takes some paishonts.
