FarmerTec Huztl MS660 Updated Build Kit - Build Thread

Quick question re: Huztl carb for 660

https://www.huztl.net/Carburetor-Ca...MS650-Chainsaw-OEM-1122-120-0621-p228292.html

Is this carb decent? Buying some other stuff while sale is on and for $11 is it worth it for me to buy one and lard it away for when I get gremlins?

I've heard good things here about the cheap Chinese carbs on ebay...wondering whether these Huztl carbs are also good, or what might be better.

Thanks for any help.

Do you love your saw or your pocketbook more? That's the question you need to answer. I have become a firm believer that anything that the fuel/oil touches is far too important to mess with.

Huztl sold a brand HLiC that I had great luck until I had my epiphany. I don't think they sell it any more. It was supplied with the first kits.

I had a mess of screws on the bench and that showed it's face. My brain went blank. Then it came to me. I hope to get my 660 heat cycled tomorrow. I got the handle on and got tired and quit.

I love the kits when you make them perfect. I will go ahead and order me a worm. Since I am heat cycling I will only make a few cuts and I won't worry too much about the oiler, if I have to I will rub some Mobil 1 on the chain to get me by. Lol

Sometime this week I will put this beast to work and not fret

Thanks Bedford T. Do you have a particular carb you recommend for the 660, and if so, how much does it sell for?

Or are you saying to just go to my Stihl dealer and buy a carb for the 660 from him?

 

[Bedford T]

No go to http://mittysupply.com and find you the walbro it's about 40$. It's genuine. Give you plenty of fuel to keep her lubed and running

Thanks, gentlemen. As long as I can get it as rich as I need here at sea level with my mostly gutted muffler, I'll be happy...

MG what was your carb, another choice for you. The carbs Stihl sells strave your poor saw and they have those blame limiters.

I got the first kit version which after reaming the jet it did pretty good but I went with the Tillotson 320a and never looked back love the tillotson carburetor.

 

[Bedford T]

Let me clear this up...Nothing wrong with the farmertec brand except they are copying the Zama wj67 and the wj69 which are way more restrictive because they are copies of the Stihl carburetors so if the stihl starves saw then we know that the farmertec will also.

Stihl provided the wj-76 until somebody got smoke in their eyes

The tillotson 320a is a great carburetor big jetting out of the box.  lol.

Am running the wj76 myself and its been fine. Pulled my plug today and she's running perfect. So very happy thus far. I am at 600ft elevation.

Can't tell whether you're being sarcastic or serious here, MG Porting. Is it big jetting or not?

Also, looks like the Walbro and the Tillotson are about the same $. Any preference, or are they about the same?

 

[Ted Jenkins]

I live at 6,000 feet so my opinion might be void. I would also admit that maybe drilling or reaming the valve body might work well, but have not had to to do here. Another problem is that I have several carbs extra for my 075 and 076 so have not experienced the problem that you are talking about. With limiters out and older style adjuster in they all adjust well here. Thanks

I was just giving you another option. I think the tolliston is slightly smaller in jet size, you should be able to look that up. He was not trying to confuse you.

I am heat cycling the cylinder. I forgot how much trouble it is. Heat and wait till it cools, repeat, repeat, repeat

That beautiful kit saw just teasing ya. You can use me,

One thing I noticed is it sits in one place. It still bounces but with the last one it would scoot around.
