    Stihl 661

    Timber boy replied to Timber boy's topic in Chainsaws

    Well maybe I will wait for it then I have an old 660 so if the 661 is going to be released in the summer might be worth the wait before I make a decision if the 660 dies on me I do have an 880 and an 064 wich can always back me up a bit disappointed tho I was all excited about getting a new saw Thanks for the feed back guys !!!!!!!!

    Hi all it's defo a 61 it still has the plate on it and that's what it says I have taken it apart and she has cleaned up nice the piston and barrel look fine carbs good and I had a new air filter so all I need is a new spark plug and pull cord and all being well she's a runner
  8. Timber boy
    I thought you might say that was the 61 a good saw or not I know it looks bad but i think it's covered in 10 yrs of dirt and saw dust I don't think it would take much to get her going again !!

    For all you guys asking about the ms 150 I have a mate who works for ermin plant hire and they can get them now and they are good on there prices to might be worth a look if you are desperate for one soon

    Hi mate yes it should it should be fine on a 20" I have got a 20" for it I just haven't used it yet if you are getting a new one stihl say that the saw will take between 8 and 15 tanks of fuel before it's running on it's optimum power but I think it pulls like a train straight out of the box so can't wait to c what optimum power is like and also the saw is really well balanced with the 18" bar ru local to Gloucester if you r you are welcome to have a go with mine before you buy one
  14. Timber boy
    I bought a 461 this week I got it on an 18" bar and it is an awesome saw I'm sure you will love it I do !!
  15. Timber boy

  16. Timber boy
    I hate people who take other people's stuff and think it's ok I had my 660,880 and 064 nicked on Xmas eve and then I found them in feb on fleabay I could not believe my luck. So I went and got my saws back . And let's just say I don't think they will be stealing much for a while !!
  17. Timber boy
    Having read all your comments has helped me make my mind up I was very close to buying the 560 having used one all day on tues and it did not miss a beat but I guess I had a lucky day bye the sounds of It !! I. Think I will stick with stihl
  18. Timber boy

    My new 461

    Timber boy posted a topic in Chainsaws

    Had my first full day felling with my new stihl 461 today and it was great it flew with that 18" bar on
  21. Timber boy
    I ordered a load of kit yesterday new harness,ropes,spikes etc and it arrived today can't say better than that can we
  22. Timber boy
    Well I have only used it to cut a load of old oak up that I have to put in the log shed I have a days felling lined up for it tomorrow so I will update you all tomorrow night but if the old oak is any thing to go bye it's going to fly . Stihl recommended three tanks of fuel to be put through it under load to break it in so that's what I have done and they say it could take between 5 and 15 tanks of fuel to reach it's full power output so we will see .
