Don,
I believe you will love the Jab in your 601 XL - I sure do in mine.
For routine preventative maintenance, common hand tools should suffice.
The only thing you may or may not have in your tool box are 3/16 and 1/4
inch ball nose 3/8 inch drive long hex wrenches. These can be used many
places on the engine to check torque or to remove cap screws.
Not a problem changing out any carb jets with common 1/4 drive socket
wrenches (10 mm, if I recall correctly). I doubt if you will have to
change the jets with a new engine though.
One thing I changed on the engine was to install a quick change oil
change valve in place of the oil plug. Sure makes changing oil easier.
Put one end of a hose on the valve with the other end in a
bottle/container and open the valve - no mess. Bought mine from Jab
USA for about $25, I think.

I just mailed my deposit on my new Jab3300. Are there any tools I should
order
now?
I was watching the how-to video with can-zac and he was pulling
apart the
carburetor. Do I need the jet removal tool? What else. Your input is
greatly appreciated.
