A 660 magnum (dual ported muffler) has more power than a 661 Jon, so go figure

I think im getting old.

Im starting to develop a severe dislike all this modern technology of ecu's and alike. An old saw with a carb can almost always be tuned,retimed, muffler modded and ported etc and a tweak the carb and off you go. New saws will have to have the ecu reset everytime you make an adjustment if you want to take full advantage. Also when it breaks down parts on older saws are normally much cheaper than newer stuff and especially the new stihl strato saws as they've certainly hiked the parts prices up on them.

 

Do I sound like a granddad yet? Lol

 

They just don't make em like they used to....

Remember, you heard it here first.

 

Apparently, it's to do with stihl struggling with sales over the last two years. They're turning over a new leaf and will start to listen to what the end user wants rather than dictating.

 

The return of the 361 & 460 are also said to be imminent.

 

 

461 is a brill saw, love mine
