It is supposed to be unlimited and "smart", but it's not all that common and was discontinued by Stihl. Not sure why... maybe because the saw has to be pulled over at least 900rpm before you get spark - and no deco... lolol


Try a 0000-400-1300... you'll probably like it.

Nothing of value to add but this just has to be one of the most entertaining threads I have read for awhile. Thanks for experimenting and trying to figure this out Brad, :dizzy: :confused: :dizzy:

I bought the elusive 1122 400 1311 coil last night. That means I'll be able to test a 0000 400 1300, a 1122 400 1314, and a 1122 400 1311. Maybe then we'll be able to fill some of the blanks in for what interchanges and what doesn't.

The pathetic thing is that I'm typing all the PNs from memory:dizzy:

but.. be very careful with "what works". If you have a saw 2 degrees (example) advanced (hard to measure without good tools), sure it will run, but your piston/bearing may suffer accordingly.

Engineer is involved in this process.. LOL Good work Brad.... I think

Thanks Eric. But I do software, not mechanical engineering. I guess the analytical mind is still the same no matter the genre. Sometimes when I'm debugging software, I have to beat it and beat it to make it do what I want. For some reason it does what i program it to do rather than what I want it to do. You know, GIGO:( . Same thing applies here I suppose. I will beat on my 066 until it WILL turn 15K:jawdrop: OK, maybe not that high. I'll never know until I get an unlimited coil on there.

Here's the 1122 400 1214 flywheel. It's also a 1122 400 1209 flywheel. Thus the two keyways. Not the "P" and "P+X" prefixes to the PNs and how they correspond to the "X" and "P" keyways on the other side.

Notice that there's nearly 45* difference in the two flywheels! If you were to install this coil in the "X" position and the RL -1317 coil, you would be advancing the timing that much.
