| I knew someday one would turn up to buy right and used. Echo 501 | |
| bought PHO. | |
| Which didn�t matter as I have all of that on hand. | |
| Psi felt good and popped on choke all I cared about. | |
| Hopefully turns out to be good to go. | |
| If good I can test one stock now then muffler modded to see. | |

| Threw the 18 I took off 490 on it. | |
| Starts easy and runs cuts. | |
| Tune on it was fat. L and H was. Idle wasnt even hitting 2k and | |
| checking ot was 11's. | |
| Without pulling plastic epa stops I wanted to see where she | |
| would go on tune. L leaned perfect. H would tune to 12.6K | |
| before hitting stop. Now Idle is around 2700 | |

| Cheap free muffler mod to free up the echo some. Toss that inner | |
| pipe and screen. Open sides up and added a front gill. | |
| If wanted bigger I think the 490 has a 3/4 or 7/8 pipe in its | |
| muffler. | |
| Pencil hand piece I bought from Shaun Carr many years ago still | |
| going strong. | |
| Just doing that alone it showed about 300 more rpm on idle and | |
| wot throttle 13.2K | |
| Might have to come up with better deflector. | |

| Jmo the metal top handle and rubber grip on these are worth the | |
| difference. Better feel to me the the echo plastic handle one I | |
| been using for years for my small saw. | |
| Sort of wish the clutch cover was mag though. | |

| Just some of my thoughts on 501 after picking up yesterday. | |
| I knew someday one would turn up to buy right and used. Echo 501 | |
| bought PHO. | |
| Which didn�t matter as I have all of that on hand. | |
| Psi felt good and popped on choke all I cared about. | |
| If good I can test one stock now then muffler modded to see. | |
| The metal handle with rubber coating feels so much better then | |
| the plastic handles the cheaper version echo use. | |
| Wish their better one came with mag clutch covers over plastic. | |
| Mixed about those captive bar nuts. | |
| Like the standard recoil better then the spring assisted one | |
| like on 490. | |
| Quick muffler mod for no cost. | |
| Also own a hacked ported echo 490 with plastic handle been using | |
| for a few years now. | |
| Here is what I noticed yesterday to see how it was stock with | |
| epa caps on. | |
| Tune on it was fat. L and H was. Idle wasnt even hitting 2k and | |
| checking wot was 11's. | |
| Without pulling plastic epa stops I wanted to see where she | |
| would go on tune. L leaned perfect. H would tune to 12.6K before | |
| hitting stop. Now Idle is around 2700. I still havent even had | |
| to touch I. L was just to fat IMO. Crisp throttle now no lag | |
| etc. | |
| Not touching tune. Pulling that inner pipe and screen and | |
| opening exits on deflector and just a gill in front of | |
| deflector. = Just doing that alone it showed about 300 more rpm | |
| on idle and wot throttle 13.2K without touching tune. | |

| More pics and testing and retune to turn down a bit even thought | |
| wot 13k-14k in service manual. Was 13.2k after muffler mod but | |
| went with 12.6k for long run. | |
| Like standard cover 501 over the spring assist on 490. | |
| But understand why some folks need those. | |
| Love the feel of the rubber grip metal handle over the plastic | |
| handle big time. | |
| All the 490 needed to stop fines from getting by. So all the 501 | |
| is getting too. 272 o-ring fix Corey Corp found to work on his | |
| 4910 way back. | |
| Psi check. Good like it felt. 8) | |
