As per title: are the Mec Eur chains any good for a Ts1 engine?

Judging by the responses your having it seems like very few people are using MEC chains.I always use Iwis chains and I've never had a failure,as far as I'm concerned there the best.

Is that the 81 link, they have a small split pin holding the chain together, whilst it shouldn't give an issue, I would prefer to use a solid linked chain.

I've got one in my 200TS1 but not used it in anger yet. Can see there been an issue with them.
