Hi everyone I really want to add some kind of twin to my collection and since there the easiest to find and I like echo stuff. Whats a good price to pick up a 610 evl?
Are those good prices. I can get anything running as long as the cylinders aren't shot.There is one on eBay for 400, broken bar cover and a cover for sale for 40.
says unit not working.
one for 600 that says runs
I'll look for it thanksSaw one on ebay yesterday..back handle was busted pretty bad and still wanted a good bit for it

Yea I wouldn't use it much for more then a show piece plus they sound incredibleThe Echo 610 EVL is a horizontally opposed engine design with both cylinders firing simultaneously so you don't really know it is a twin cylinder when it is running. They are very smooth, but a bit underpowered for the weight considering they are a 60 cc saw.

Don't be so sure about those Echo twins. The ignitions are a real weak point, particularly the module.Are those good prices. I can get anything running as long as the cylinders aren't shot.
I noticed in videos that they didn't sound like a twin! That's too bad. It also didn't seem like they had any remarkable performance....The Echo 610 EVL is a horizontally opposed engine design with both cylinders firing simultaneously so you don't really know it is a twin cylinder when it is running.

I don't believe any twin cylinder saws ever had anything over single cylinder models. Power to weight was way off. Solo Twins sound cool, but they are too fragile and their contemporary mates (635s, Mac and Homey 100cc saws) probably had way more torque. Not to mention increased complexity. Maybe the big twin Disstons, but that's comparing apples to oranges.I noticed in videos that they didn't sound like a twin! That's too bad.

If I remember correctly when the echo twin came out it was mainly for the lower vibration levels that the opposed twin offered as lower vibration was the hot topic in the 80’s for chainsawsThe Echo 610 EVL is a horizontally opposed engine design with both cylinders firing simultaneously so you don't really know it is a twin cylinder when it is running.

My idea of a twin would be a hot saw based on 440 snowmobile engine, haha.I don't believe any twin cylinder saws ever had anything over single cylinder models. Power to weight was way off.

That will be the first spare I get if I buy one. Its really just going to be a show piece and the reason I chose echo is I can't find any other twins for saleDon't be so sure about those Echo twins. The ignitions are a real weak point, particularly the module.
Worlds only Balanced Piston engine chain saw. The BP-1 is a high speed engine utilizing one piston for power and one for balance and as a sliding intake valve. This saw was sold for a very short period of time and then withdrawn from the market by McCulloch. Because of the RPM that the engine was capable of if the governor failed it was feared that it would disintegrate and injure the operator. |
