    McCulloch Chain Saws

    After the Craftsman I thought I'd get a few more of the Jenn Feng saws cleaned up for the display. These were part of a large batch of saws I picked up in Oregon a few years ago. According to Mr. Chainsaw (Eugene, OR) these were purchased by Oregon (chain manufacturer) and were used for...

    What are the most valuable collector saws?

    Thanks for the photos Floyd, you certainly have some unique models. I have this Comet Diesel in the display, I've never tried to run it. I also recently acquired this Jonsereds XD, not a runner and not all original but still a nice collector piece. Not all that rare, and not considered...

    Pioneer chainsaws

    Beautiful saw Chris. They really have some style like early 50's cars that seems to be lacking in the modern saws... Mark

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    FWIW - I ran the Craftsman a bit yesterday, I will saw it surprised me how well it cut. I don't think it was lacking in the HP department, but my Husqvarna 550XP is a much smaller, lighter package and has the Mastermind touch so it will remain a more useful saw. Craftsman will find a place in...

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    The 450 is 91cc and has more aggressive porting, similar to the Super 250. They still have the inherent problems of the front tank saws (fuel boiling) but do pull pretty well. They are equipped with an automatic chain oiler so they are easier on the thumb if you actually use it. Mark

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    I had a 2050AV that I thought was quite O.K. This one seems quite heavy for a 55cc saw. The brake assembly/clutch cover is all aluminum, even the starter housing while plastic, seems pretty heavy. Mark

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    Jenn Feng McCulloch in Craftsman dress. I'll give it a good clean up, may try to make it run, but ultimately it will go up front in the display. Mark

    Homelite Chainsaws

    Since I have several of the McCulloch 330/340 type saws in the display, I wanted the 150 just to prove that McCulloch wasn't the only one to produce an ugly duckling... That said, the ergonomics of the 330/340 models is pretty good, it's just that large rear handle looks so bad. I did not...

    Homelite Chainsaws

    I decided we should clean up this 150 today, very interesting the way these saws were put together. I did not have to open the crankcase but we did clean up the carburetor and got the ignition working, runs on prime... It is now in the display. Mark

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    I had a young guy drop in this week with questions/problems with a Power Mac 6. It was leaking fuel, and would run full speed but not idle. Leaking fuel was easy to solve, a couple of 009 o-rings on the nipple and the leak was gone. I thought "no idle" sounded like the HS check valve so we...

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    The shape makes me think Alpina. If it is really an Alpina 120 I'd like to have it... Mark

    Jonsered Chainsaws

    I revisited the 920 someone dropped off, looks like I will need an intake boot, and at least a set of rings though I'd really like a piston and rings. Any suggestions? Mark

    Homelite Chainsaws

    Yes it it, I replaced it with a worn out SEZ. I will go through it and give it a thorough cleaning and see if it can be made into a runner. In any case, it is likely to end up in the display. Mark

    Mac 2-10 bullfrog carb part#

    Thanks Rocker for all the work put into these posts. I will try to find some time in the coming days to study them more carefully and have a look through my box of MAC10 carburetors to see if I can add anything to the discussion. Mark

    McCulloch Chain Saws

    If you haven't already removed the flywheel to clean the points, I would recommend that as a good starting place on the 1-46. Mark

    Mac 2-10 bullfrog carb part#

    Thanks Rocker. On the plus side, I don't have any current projects with the bullfrog carburetors...on the other hand I have a box of bullfrog carcasses and several saws where they could be used. I'm sure the day will come when I have to get back into the bullfrog carburetors. Mark
