Most of the 661's that people had problems with had been ported. They had a bog off idle. I think they had been ported too much for the mtronic to make it run right.
i am not so sure about "most". At least not here, where I'm told Stihl has just issued a recall for the 661. It's scarcely believable how such a good company can make such a succession of major screw-ups in their flagship saw. So many pros who rely on their saws for a living have ditched Stihl in frustration and bought a 395 Husky, that the distributor can't keep up and they are like hens teeth.

That looks to be a bit of a snarl on the uphill side of those sticks (Upper left of the photo)

Almost done grabbing logs from the power line clearing. Now its time to order the sawmill.

They came from a stand of tall straight hemlock that was hand cut because the area was designated as wetlands so they could not cut with heavy machinery. They left a lot of logs just begging to be skidded or winched out, so I did :thumbsup:

A field of beams saying "take me take me save me from rot" :laughing:

How about 'stuck in the middle without a clue'.

Stihl has 5 other successful Mtronic saws. If there is a problem with the 661 I am sure they can figure it out.
