    Brilliant video donny! Basics really but super important. The number of times I've been caught out by a plug!!

    Great video, thanks Donny! I'm more a Husky guy but I would think that the troubleshooting method is very similar! Cheers!

    What is the little cap on top of the gas tank ? My saw appears to be missing bc it’s leaks, and where can I buy it ?

    Why is a max flow not as good on a 661?
    Thanks for the tips. I've got 2 461s I love them so much. Damn near as heavy as my 066 but something about them is just so appealing.

    • @walkerscountrylife

      I think he meant the std filters are no good on the 661

      @tuckerburk8499 7 месяцев назад

      Yeah he was saying the max flows are really the only ones you should use on the 661 & 500i as the oem filters are just not made air tight & the uni kits are too tight inside the stock cover that you have to clean it way too soon

    Did I hear it is NOT recommended to use foam filter on 661?

      The foam filter is great on 661

    Hey Donny, is there a colder Plug for my 372 Husky than ngk 7?
    An eight or nine to use on my 210 psi compression Racer thats fitting under the Cover?
    Great Video , i had to learn that a sparking Plug dont have to fire when threaded in , when i was 17 and trying to fix my Lawnmover.
    So Plugs can be Assh….
    Once learned, never forgotton.

      @ronalddietz1628 Год назад

      Ngk plug 7 is good 8 is a cooler plug . 9 and 10 and so on . If that helps. Read the plug after a few good hard cuts. Good luck

    • @Witschor
      @Witschor Год назад

      @@ronalddietz1628 i know that eight is cooler than 7 . The Problem is, to find a small Plug that fits. I ordered a bpmr8y Plug. Thats better than nothing. I think there is no 9er Plug to find in that Dimension.

Have a almost new 661cm..has less than 10 or 12 tanks .it ran great ..still has factory groves in piston cylinder looks like new still.i cleaned it and put itcaway for about nine months or so in a box at home..it is so hard to pull even with decomp pressed..i checked fuel filter and put new plug .clean gas checked the intake boot ?? As i said it ran great its like new ..but it will not start almost broke my arm trying.and did several times 3 days in a row ..to make sure it wasn't flooded i checked the gap on the coil .i cannot find anything ..i do hear a swooshing sound when i pull the cord but assume thats just piston going up 👆. It has serious compession but i didnt remove t h e carburetor...yet..its like its not gett8ng fuel or spark..kinda like this video ..i also tryed 2 plugs
