FYI, there is a video out on the MS500i with a teaser look under the hood after 20 tanks (around 8:40min into the video).

Looking for decent condition fan housing 1128 080 2115. Trying to find an affordable replacement. Thanks.

Spring1898, thanks for taking the time to post the photos. Great resource for the rest of us to be able to see the difference side by side.

Failure around 37th tank with my build. I got a nasty scratchy sound when trying to restarting the saw, thought I had finally killed the all Farmertec build! First thought was the piston, broken crank, disintegrated bearings, dislodged circlip or broken rings. Surprisingly it was one of the...

Drf255, thanks for sharing the incredible work, I am inspired! Great reminder that there is a lot more at work than just what's visible.

Just saw this on their FB page posted 10/27/18. Looks like a MSS200T is also in the works.

Sorry everybody if this thread stirs up some very sensitive issues of AM vs OEM. My purpose was just to show what an AM cylinder and piston looks like to help others who may be thinking about AM parts, either messing around with porting (like myself) or as replacement parts. Definitely there...

Wonder if there is a pop up piston for the 441 to increase the compression. Hyway has it for the 461 which I may get just for fun. Not impressed with the Farmertec machining, but in reality, I had to clean up the OEM as well. Bill, thank for the tip on using the old piston. The port openings...

Wished they had kept the G666 label ... would have paired well with your video title. Could be a game changer for the homeowner market if the saw holds up well.

Just wanted to share some photos of the Farmertec MS461 Cylinder I received today. Planning to learn how to port, so bought the AM parts to practice on for $19 shipped instead of OEM for $226 on EB. The Farmertec casting looks much more refined than OEM, but he machining is quite lackluster...

Just wanted to share the kinking issues with the hoses. Hoses are bent to illustrate the difference in quality. Oil Hose Left: Farmertec Right: OEM Fuel+Vent Hose Left: Farmertec bought as standalone item (SG marking) Right: Farmertec came as part of fuel tank assembly

I am looking to pick up a MS362, wondering if someone can direct me on how to get hold of the MS362 IPL Manual for version 2 (V2). Just trying to learn more about compatibility and difference between V1 and V2. I already found IPL manual of of Version 1 (V1), just having a hard time finding...

Sorry for confusion. Waiting on OEM oil hose to arrive. The Farmertec hoses were the one that kinked; this is the 2nd hose, so looks like Farmertec is a dud on the oil hoses. The OEM carb L-screw must have moved due to vibration or resonance, but working itself tighter is weird. This is the 3rd...

Just curious how the kit is coming along with everybody and if anyone's been able to get their saw to work with all Farmertec parts My Pre-Huztl Kit has now over 30+ tanks with all stock in the drivetrain except the carb. 1. Running with replacement Farmertec intake boot/manifold to see if it...

DIY, even a clueless newbie like myself was successful with a couple of chainsaws. You can unscrew the wire to the spark plug from the coil, which was a surprise to me. It is that simple! Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong ... just a roookie, but the part number looks like "1140 400...

Agree that fin460 was very responsive for the record. I would buy a saw from him in a heartbeat had my funding came thru.

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction with Graham Bell's book. BTW, like to share another interesting resource I just came across today, it's Gordon Jennings' Two-stroke Tuner's Handbook (http://www.amrca.com/tech/tuners.pdf) .... definitely way over my head technical as well but great...

+1 for Lone Wolf, super helpful and generous with info. Will definitely recommend buying from him if a working MS200T is a must. Unfortunately, most of the folks on this thread already has the money in the pit ... like me! However, my objective was to learn about fixing and getting a little...

Plastic fit for the Farmertec MS200T is not as good in some areas. Look at gap between brake-cover and body. Handle has no marking for the throttle-choke control lever. Brake assembly molding in 5th picture has the clutch brake support ribs telegraphing through. Hope the pictures helps in...

Here's some photos of Farmertec MS200T parts (pre-Huztl Kit) from July 2018. Did not have any luck with the two carbs I bought, but the metal cast & machining seems decent enough. This build was an experiment to run the Farmertec parts till it implodes. Tried to use everything as received...
