The gauge that I have I got from hi performance engineering.. It is ridged no hoses or swivels to worry about leaking...screw into the plug hole..hook pull cord to truck bumper head up the driveway till the gauge Max's out....
 
Good number there....660?


This is a 461 ,the decomp hole is offset on this model like a 361 is .........my 660 pulls over harder than this saw ,on the mill it yanks the cord out of my hand sometimes .
 
When you have a 24" bar fulled buried in hardwood, w/o any skip chain, you often wish for a little more torque than the 044 can provide, especially when going through knots. For some reason, I have found myself in that situation a lot this year. The 044 will get it done, but something with additional grunt will get it done better. And sometimes, it will give you a hair more time to pull it from a pinch.

Not mine ;) ;)
