ms660 ....more power???

[Hedge hunter]

If you are feeling that you need more power on a 25" bar on an MS660, the first thing I'd check was my chain sharpening!

 

 

I suggest all the red haired women has clouded yer brains my saw is sharp mister...

I put a smaller sprocket on mine to slow the chain and give more torque and put a 20'' bar on.

Thinking of nitrous oxide next.

ok that makes sense.thanks.

 

...Does the fuel economy get worse?:blushing:

 

It uses the fuel you have more efficiently and it cuts faster so you get more work done in a shorter time soooo I would say no , not worse but different ! if you see what I mean

ok....yep i see....does it pay to put 95octane fuel in or is it no different.im currently doing 15l of mix a day and want to reduce the cost and up the cutting.

I think you would up the cutting but use the same or slightly more fuel but in proportion to the timber on the deck at the end of the day it would be more economical

there is a mid size plantation in the middle of an area im working.just small ish stuff but i have to move quick.need to fell and stack 50 a day to get it out the way and my husky 362 is dead zed....

I think a 660 is overkill for that, just my opinion, 550/560 would be ideal.

well ill get the saw stripped down and get the dremmel out then.....
