Huztl MS660

[davhul]

2 of mine had 165psi without the gasket. .023 squish.

I don't see that kind of compression out of a 660 with a cut squishband.

I'm going to have to test mine now...maybe that will explain my hand after only 3 or 4 starts. I did a no gasket jug at .020" squish.

Pretty obvious why they came up with elasto handles.

i tested it with my matco compression tester, and it hurts like hell if you don't commit to pulling the cord. and that's with the comp release on

What rings?

 

[ckelp]

Chinesum rings

I heard that if you leave one out that it'll run like a Husky

Johnny.. You sure those blisters aren't from sleeping on the couch after buying a new saw? Lol

Maybe a larger starting handle would help

That is a 100% scratch built by yours truly while sleeping on the couch saw I'll have you know! Big handle already but not elasto...so gloves from now on.

No heat shield shipped....repeat issue others have had.

Huztl is sending a few bushings, spline screws, heat foil x2, etc that was missing from the kit + replacing a 360 drum they sent instead of a 290/390 drum. Took a few emails back and forth on the drum but no hassle on the other items other than the delay.

I got word today they have modified the case enough to solve the chain adjuster problem. They found Davhul's fix informative and made the adjustment so it will no longer be needed long term.

My Feb 13 order date kit's adjuster works as designed...actually was a little snug where the adjuster pin "L" bracket travels along the groove on the threaded shaft. A flat jewelers file fixed that and now works fine.

I ordered mine the beginning of December and the adjuster fit tight. Filled up the gear box with white lithium grease and worked the gears back and forth a couple of dozen times and it feels good to go.....works like it was originally designed.

Rectangle slotted round grommet is for the kill switch to coil wires iirc. Stamp "Your" SN on it.

mine was hitting the jug at TDC, i had to make room plus my spark plug is almost hitting the piston.

i heard if you take out both rings it will have the same horsepower as a ford 6.0L with a clogged oil cooler.

i wonder if "I have a potty mouth" is taken?

Now that's just plain mean

 

[ckelp]

Any of you try out their chain?

Looked into the cost and shipping added $37.50 to the cost of a 25' roll. That makes delivered cost a little over $79 or $3.17/ft so I passed on it.

 

[TPA]

Silly me. I actually thought that someone could get a shipping break if the chain was included with a saw purchase.
