Those 266's were great saws, to me they seemed to have more power than my 562xp but it's been a long time since I actually used a 266.

all 630's I've ever seen were thin ring. must be I have older ones.  I have not pull the muffler off yet Aaron still gathering parts.
there was a porting difference in the se vs xp.  the se had smaller transfers and combustion chamber.  I am not sure about this fact but at some point the went from a throttle lock to being inclusive on the choke.

the 162 I opened up I believe had a single thick ring.  I will check

I've got a nice heated handle 266. Runs so nice as is I've not even thought of doing anything to it.

David those changes (larger transfers, larger combustion chamber, larger intake, idle speed screw on the carb, one piece ignition, taller top cover, additional air filter options, elimination of the removable FW side seal carrier, etc) happened between the 266XP and the 268XP. 

The 272XP is basically the same saw as the 268XP, but with a 2mm larger bore (52mm vs 50mm).  The non-XP 268 (released as a lower cost/performance option after the 272XP replaced the 268XP as top dog in this series) also has these improvements, but with the Gilardoni open port 66/268K cylinder.

All the 266SE/SG/XP saws have the same cylinder and carb/intake setups (smaller transfers, smaller intake, idle screw in the case, etc).  All the Huskys in this series have the throttle lock integrated into the op pres lever. 

The Jonsered versions have the choke activated throttle lock.  The 162 has a metal tank.  Same with some early 61's.  The G models (all the way through the 272XPG) also have Mag tanks......with heated grip scales.

I have a very nice 266XP.  IIRC, it is a 1987 or so vintage saw.  Should have one thick ring, but I haven't yet checked.  Also have a 162SE coming soon.

That's how I feel about my 266XP.  Runs a 20-24" B/C quite well in oak.  Seems to have a bit more 'snap'/better acceleration than my 272XP (probably due to higher low RPM charge velocity through the smaller intake and transfers), but not quite as much top end.  Close enough that I feel no need to mess with it.  Just a sweet running little saw.

this h162 has a single fat ring.  The piston looks like a 262 piston

To think I sold a running 266 parts saw for $25 plus ship awhile back. 

Man I could have dangled the carrot a little longer.  ;) :D :P

Ouch, I got one the other day for $80. It was described as needing a new choke lever. It needed a new choke lever, top cover , switch and it has a loose bar stud. It runs well though, I have four of them in varying states of repair now.
