FarmerTec Huztl MS660 Updated Build Kit - Build Thread

[Bedford T]

You might want a plan B. I have seen the gaskets on eBay. Your dealer may not have the gasket and their distributor may not have it. So don't become alarmed you can't get it immediately. They certainly can order it for you.

Yeah sorry I missed a zero I meant about 0.007 with the supplied steel gasket, was a dummy ft with no rings but had it bolted down but not tight either. Had some 1mm gasket material at work so will try that, parts take a week to arrive from local shop but will order the correct lager gasket.

I'm trying to understand port timing. I have never used a degree wheel.
What effect on timing would it have since all the ports are being raised or lowered the same amount as a unit?

Mainly the intake and exhaust will be effected. I never got into changing the port timing, I have a degree wheel when I check my ign. Advance. I normally like around 8-10°.

So you put the degree wheel on the clutch side and see what it's on when the flywheel magnet engages the coil?

I had mine on the flywheel side mounted to a puller. I was checking how much I would take off the keyway.

Everybody is doing all these "base gasket deletes" and "trying to get to .020 squish" without any regard for timing numbers. The best solution to a .007 squish number (if its accurate) is to sand down the squish band. While that sounds scary to most, it is actually pretty simple. Watch Matt Olsens videos about how he does it. Basically, get a cheap FT piston (assuming you don't have a spare junk one), glue or tape some abrasive disk or sandpaper to the top, drop it in the cylinder and spin it with some type of DIY mandrel until you knock off about 13 thou on the squish band and you are at .020 with the stock gasket.

Thanks for the reply’s, I managed to make a gasket and after dummy fit and check it is showing 0.025 squish, so hopefully it seals up ok.

One of my saws came back and it’s a little flatter than when i last seen it. It got pinched and the tree rolled over it. The oem top handle is bent and the airbox is crushed along with a bushing.
Other than that its ok. This one has the stock Farmer cylinder.

The original 440 cylinder I removed sunday was great. We have proof they are capable. They just don't have legs

Bedford, a few posts back you encouraged everyone to contact huztl about the bad parts they received it the kits. Well I did that almost a month ago and have gotten no where so far. I emailed them about the chain adjuster, the broken decomp, the no fast idle, and the leaking gas cap.
Got email back "so sorry, don't worry we are here to help"
No further response for days. I emailed back asking if they had sent the parts.
Got email back. "Can you double check to see if parts work normally"
I emailed back, yes I double checked, parts are bad. No response for 5 days. I emailed again asking for replacements.
Got email back, " can you kindly send picture of the parts" I took pictures and send them. No response for days. I emailed again asking if they had sent the parts. Got email back, "about your leaking gas cap, can you try some silicone sealant on it'.
I emailed back saying I tried it and still leaking.
They emailed back saying " gas cap leaking and all other part work normally?"
I replied back saying no the other parts don't work normally, they are bad.
No response. I emailed back asking for replacements again. They emailed back, "can you shoot a video of the leaking gas cap. If we have video we can know how to further help you"
Can you believe that? Do I give up or keep after them?

I believe it and it makes me mad as hell. That's why I get so damn irritated.

On my website I have step by step instructions. They will string you along and run the PayPal clock out if you go a different direction.

I hate this happened to you. There is only one way to deal with them. We have allowed this to go on to long. It takes a village to correct bad behavior like this.

Sounds like me. Crappy chain adjuster, leaking gas cap, no fast idle. Fyi, I was able to cure my fast idle cam_arm with a heat gun and pull and with a pliers to stretch it .040 in length to make it work.

 

[Bedford T]

90 days I think

See they strung you out. Over some cheap parts. How does that make you feel to have that much time invested and got no where.

No I replace the gas cap with one from Amazon and the other parts I wrote off as being junk and modified

I read your whole website months ago when I was thinking about ordering a kit.
But honestly I can't remember everything it said since it has been so long since I read it.
I just checked PayPal and it said I had until October to report a problem. I will give huztl a few more days, then I will file a claim through PayPal.
