    It will be interesting to see how the paint ages. Putting hardiner in the paint should make it last longer I am thinking. Much more professional than a rattle can or rustoleom like Tremclad. Save now and pay later vs pay now and enjoy forever.

    • @theoccasionalfarmboy
      @theoccasionalfarmboy Місяць тому

      @happyjohn8256 The main reason for the rebuild was due to the key sitting loose in the worn-out keyway slot. In this video short, I didn't prime the power steering, so I didn't have any power steering, so it was much harder to steer. After the rebuild, I can keep a straight line now

    I have the older hyway jug and the pop up piston with caber rings on my 660. Im getting the titanickel kit and going to do some small port work to it. 1 thing i have found that helped alot on mine was getting a velocity stack. Copper exhaust cooling fins off of ebay and bumping up to the bigger i think .64 carb jet. Mine has a healthy scream now and pull. Run good FD rated oil (royal purple hp2) at around 40 to1. And good premium 93 gas ir better. Be good to go.

    • @theoccasionalfarmboy
      @theoccasionalfarmboy Місяць тому

      Thanks for the info. I definitely don't mind giving this thing more guts. It's got 220psi of compression, so I might aswell use every last bit, so getting bigger jet is a good idea. I want the saw to still look somewhat stock so I probably won't be putting a velocity stack on her. One thing I've heard is that it is very hard to port the titanickel plating as it chips very easily, so I've stayed away from that on this one.

  • @middlesiderrider

    I just picked up a Super Comango AV. It has the craziest antivibe setup I've ever seen, but it's satisfyingly mechanical-looking with all the pivots and bushings. Unfortunately i don't think I'll ever know how it works, because the piston looks badly scored through the exhaust port. I don't imagine it'll be easy to find a cheap top end for this old saw.

    • @theoccasionalfarmboy
      @theoccasionalfarmboy Місяць тому

      Nice find! That is worth a lot more with the antivibe, and very rare. Keep an eye on ebay, lots of older saw parts circulate on there. Thanks for the comment

    • @middlesiderrider
      @middlesiderrider Місяць тому

      Yeah I've only seen one other Super Comango antivibe online in an my time researching. Must not have made very many. I got this in a lot of six saws I bought, and I've already fixed a Homelite Super EZ and Super 2. But the main saw I wanted was this Super Comango. We'll see. In the past I've fixed up some real junkers that most people wouldn't waste time on, so it might run yet. Seeing your vid is good motivation. Your saw sounds great 👍

      @georgesjunk 4 місяці тому

      ​@happyjohn8256 it's a good point. However, users are reporting generally pretty decent results. I won't be surprised it will become more and more commonplace as end users feel that historically trusted companies increasingly don't have their consumers backs. For example, loblaws, apple etc. In the chainsaw world, the mainstays of Stihl and Husqvarna are increasingly being left aside for 3rd best Echo and then Chinese. Personally, I rather buy once cry once, but can totally understand the balance of cost vs longevity. And as an aside the whole idea of Chinese is junk is no longer true. There are some really good work done in China and tons upon tons of unnecessary garbage. I'd rather not support them but that's very hard when everything comes from there..... even if it doesn't say China something likely was used from there. I don't want to support russia either but found out my tires were made in Russia by a supposedly Finish tire brand. Anyways, comments support the occasional farm boy!
