Stihl MS880 updated one
By: Chainsawrepair Date: August 15, 2011, 6:36 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Had a guy ask me a question and I havent had the new updated
stihl 880 in my hands. I was telling him about using the 084
088 or MS880 piston in the stihl 084.
He ask if that included the new updated MS880 built after 2009
with piston part number 1124 030 2002 and bolt on muffler with
muffler cover etc. The older MS880 before 2009 used 1124 030
2007 piston.
Anyone know if they are the same piston with updated part number
only?

Is there now a muffler to replace the "cast" aluminum muffler
????? I hope not........... I just ordered a cast one (over
$227), from the dealer >:(
Just thought about it...... probably wouldn't work with the old
style cylinder that uses the spring & wedges to secure it on.

jmester = In 2009 stihl updated the 880. They changed about
everything different crankcase, flywheel ignition module,
cylinder etc.
On the ignition module they went from a 3 screw mount to a 2
screw mount.
Flywheel from poly to aluminum.
As mentioned above the 361 and or 441 module works with the
aluminum flywheel. For non rev limited.
The poly flywheel 1124 400 1210 is shared by both the 088 and
early 880.
The 880 uses ignition module 1124 400 1301
The 088 uses ignition module 1124 400 1309
Read that this is non limited as well. But have no first hand
knowledge.
The proverbial universal 0000 400 1300 module may work but I
don't know. Would take some custom fitment.

saving some interesting info.
John = MS880/088, does anyone know if the OEM poly flywheel is
not compatible with the farmertec coil? Had an oem saw with a
blown apart case and swapped the oem parts I could to the
farmertec case. I learned the oem and farmertech coils are
completly different. But now it seems like the timing is off
with the oem coil and farmertec coil. Its hard to start and runs
very rough once it is started.
Tom = The poly coil 880 is basically an 088 so, it's a different
flywheel and coil than the later 880 (different timing). The
later OEM 880 used a metal flywheel and a different coil (I
believe it was a 1124 coil that was a limited version of the 361
coil).
The Farmer tec 880 is based off the later version of the 880 so
thats your issue.
I think the poly flywheel 880 can use an ms660 coil but you will
need to do some fabrication to make it fit.

Tom = early 880 had the cast aluminum muffler and the poly
flywheel.
Not sure if any of the later 880's with the 2 piece muffler came
with the poly or if they were all metal
I'm definitely not an expert either, just information I ran
across while looking into my 088 vs my buddies late 880
John = yeah this one was the clamp on cast aluminum early 880. I
figured that out when this farmertec case showed up and the
muffler didn't fit. Lol. Luckily my customer did have a new used
OEM later 880 cylinder so all we had to by was a farmertec
exhaust. But, then the OEM coil didn't fit, 3 screw version. So
we ordered a farmertc coil. But now the flywheel is an issue
also. hahaha, I can't win!
Tom = try a 660 coil or other coil that shares the same timing
as the 660/460/461/046/ect
That should solve your issue, try to stay to unlimited coils
Ethan = yes timing is different between coils and flys, 361 coil
works with aluminum fly but my preference is poly and 3 leg
John = the 3 leg dont work on the farmertec case unfortunately.
I already ordered the aluminum flywheel. Thanks for confirming
what Tommy said though.

Guy rebuilding a Gen1 stihl ms880 with the later Gen2 880 p+c
and muffler. Not a 088 like pics say. Was just the early run
880 before change.
Didnt not know that would happen.
