Stihl BR600 and BR700 new engine design / common problems update 

Thank you for this video. I've used the br600's for at least 10 years and for residential use, it's more than enough. I am glad to know about the new design on these because my next blower purchase will be another 600.

This channel deserves way more views. I just happened to pick up a BR600 yesterday and saw this video today. Took off the recoil and I have the new engine. Didn't even know they changed it. Thank you!

Very informative - exactly the sorts of things a diy-minded owner wants to know! Thanks.

Thank you for making these informative videos.

Awesome video! Very informative... Videos like yours give RU-vid a GOOD name!

Great thumbnail! Can't wait for the video.

Thanks Wally, for another great video with some very informative information!! 👍👍

I love the improvement they made, now I can support them again and explain the importance of this improvement to owners 😊

Just found your channel and I thank you so much for your videos, already been a big help

Good video...

I'll be looking for this on the next one I get in my shop. Thanks.

They should reward you for the information to improve their equipment, nothing like the real facts after using them 😊

This was a very informative video, I had 1.5 years of personal/residential only use on my BR700 backpack blower I purchased 5/2022. It just had complete wrist pin failure, and thankfully Stihl will honor their warranty but want to replace it with only another old flawed design unit. Still working to get them to exchange it with the revised model, or I may pay the difference and get the BR800 that doesnt have these issues.

My br600 was made in 11.21 and has the updated changes. I wonder when they initially made this change. I was able to verify by looking at the exhaust port cooling fins through the plastic orange slots In the blower shell, above the muffler.

Im really cerious if they put a bearing in the piston end of the connecting rod instead of that brass bushing

Just bought a used BR 600 Z today. What does the Z stand for ? Started on 1st pull as promised. Some of the the serial no was worn away. First no. 5377 and an 8 or 3 0n the end. Will open it up tomorrow to see.

Nice video! Have you seen any similar changes being made on the 800?

So other than taking apart the blower...is there a srlerial # one could use to validate if they are getting the new br700?

I wonder if they did any before and after temp readings to see if putting those 3 little cooling fins on the exhaust made a difference!😂

Question I'd anyone can answer. When i squeeze the trigger on my br 600 on full it wants to bog down but when I slowly pull the trigger it runs normally. Is that the way this blower works or is there a problem somewhere? Thanks.

You think it’s better than the echo 770t & redmax 7500 ?

Promo sm 😒
