I dont even look at saws that have a pho weight of 16lbs and over anymore. Yep getting older. Sold them all off.
Amazing I used to lug those 20 plus pounders around.118cc-122c

655 18lbs + max rpm I found shows 12,500 Check and make sure.

Where I'm from if you don't have a stihl you don't have s%#t, it would be nice for the bp655 to knock off a 660. Just for a pride thing. I really like all makes and models but poulan is definitely my favorite

I don't know for sure but I would like to think the 655bp would knock off a 660.

Both saws in stock form it would.

There is 2 of them in this video comparing cutting in big softwood

Around the 6min 20second area and on. There appears to be a poulan 655 and a pioneer p62 making cuts. If 8x8 cants, that would be a 32"x32" cant cut.

Last P62 sounds way better in the cut then that 1st 655. JMO

John you didnt say anything.

Dang junk phone....12,500 is very respectable for a horizontal p/c. Factory specs on a 660 is 13,500 if I recall correctly.

The p-62 definitly made a better cut,maybe had some internal help.

Al Smith had some mac that was up in the rpm with horiz. I was like after test cutting with it. Would have to ask him as my memory is faded.

Seeing if I can attach the 655 SM here.

Nope 405 455 525 655 The uploaded file is too large.

So email only here but think I stuck it a link to it in a thread on chainsaw repair site.

I think they are a under estimated saw,they are mean saws.

I don't under estimate them...I know better! I've seen some that seemed to be not up to par and I have seen them tuned correctly and they were a absolute beast!

I knew you could I didn't know what model of husky to order or how much they were I love that 475 though even with the green coil

I use partner 5000 500 jonsered 490 590 and husky 55 coils.

Think the husky crosses to these too. 40, 45, 50, 51, 55, 61, 257, 261, 262, 266, 268, 272

or use one from a 415 425 445 oem as unlimited already.

 

[Boomer 87]

I wonder why they would put a limited on the 475 then, bc of the larger displacement than a 415 etc?

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

Got me. Easy fix so I dont worry about it. $20 or a coil you have on hand like all of mine.

 

[Boomer 87]

Right now it runs fine I tuned it in the wood, maybe it'll be a winter project. I getting ready to do points and condensor on a 041

Old build 2013. Was looking for coil pic.

Green 505 ( started painting them different colors to be alittle different then same old saw I already have ) I built from extra parts. Working on a Bright orange one now. Well for awhile now. Just bored building the same saws over and over.

066 piston and partner coil.

Its lime green even though my pics dont show it right.

I told ya my memory was bad lol. I do remember the unlimited coil made absolutely no difference on the 505's in stock form.
