doing some reading, this things a high compression monster apparently.. they'll do some serious choppin

 

The middle spark plug wire (I guess?) won’t go down any farther than that, I feel like that’s not supposed to be that way.

tighten the plug? Pull it out and good at it?

 

Yes, this will do.

 

Time for new wires, theyre coming appart

 

The trade I thought could happen fell through, so its back to work on the 4wd.

ordering hardware for the front bumper, anyone know what size those c clips with a nut through them are called / what size so I can order some? for the 01-04 bottom valence to bumper piece.

 

new plug wires...

 

I used to be a parts guy for lawn and garden equipment. Regretfully the only way you'll find parts for that saw (other than aftermarket air filter fuel filter and spark plug) is from other enthusiasts online.

You can try stens.com they might still make aftermarket recoil springs and things but case pieces haven't been available since the 90s.

McCullough was bought by AYP who was bought by Husqvarna and when Husqvarna gets their hands on another line they 99% of the time discontinue everything

 

Sleepy fatass kitten

 

You can make anything with a mill, lathe, and welder

 

Oh hellz yes! I love keeping old 2 stroke shit alive ... wish I had a mill cause I'd make a cover for you @Empty_Lord

 

im going to dig for the parts in the barn.. someone put it away right.. it has compression. feels good. gas tank was empty. no varnish in the carb... other than the recoild and cover... it looks like it'll fire right up

 

Impact on the flywheel nut?

 

Should have used a 5 gallon bucket

 

cant. no regular nut to put a socket on

 

I see

Theres something cool about ancient stuff

 

this is a pro series chainsaw that apparently holds up to modern ones. This suckers 82CC high compression. Used running ones are worth about 750-900 bucks apparently

 

For the love of all that is holy and runs on gasoline do NOT buy any of that new shit! The EPA has such a strangle hold on new power equipment the stuff barely lasts 2 seasons. Ports in carbs are smaller and get gummed up easier... I haven't seen it on 2 stroke stuff yet but Briggs and Stratton engines on new mowers have plastic carburetors now

 

And it'll be a torque monster! Older saws run at lower rpms compared to new ones ... but be careful, that vintage more than likely doesn't have a chain break for kickback and they can cause some serious personal injury

 

i like the old shit. new stuffs built to be thrown away. i have a craftsman chainsaw i got dirt cheap.. it works well probably 8 years old. but it has NOTHING on this beast.

 

this one has a chain brake. appears to work too
