I picked up the 660 from the dealer yesterday. I had removed the clutch and the old oil pump and packed everything a plastic bags and hauled it to the dealer so I could ask questions. The mechanic came out front and inspected the saw and saw a small ding in the crank seal. He recommended replacing it since it was exposed and the saw was nice and clean. He reassembled the entire saw. Everything seems to work great! The only decent size tree I had to work on was a 42" oak in the bull pasture that had died the previous year. I was really a pleasure to run the saw with a 36" bar and watch the sawdust fly. The core of the tree was pithy and did not offer real resistance to cutting but the high output pump kept the chain oiled even in this tree. It is such a pleasure to hear a good running saw sing and to constantly feel the chain digging in. Next it will get a factory DP muffler cover, and full wrap bar like the 460 wears, and a 441 full wrap clutch cover and studs. Things are looking up.
To everyone who helped me work out the oil pump problem THANK YOU! Esp Andy and his pictures and advice. Andy thank you.
