I am looking over my new to me Mcculloch 795. I noticed this black lever. Is this a DSP valve?

That is a good looking SP81, make sure the pop up compression release is seating properly and that you are not losing compression that way.
The 35 is a good looking saw as well. That is a late 35, you can see where they were getting ready to move the oiler button up by your right thumb on the rear handle. Most of the time there would have been a flange on the handle just above the oiler button on the oil tank, helped you to hold the saw and work the oiler at the same time. Yours may have been molested at some point in its life.

What saw would be more powerful or 'capable', a SP81 or a PM800? I did notice that the 81 seems to have a anti-vibe mount or something because the bar/clutch seems to move in relation to the saw body, which I don't think I've seen on my 10-10s or other 10-series.
Thanks,

There is some debate on the 82 cc saws but my impression is PM850 is the most powerful, followed closely by the SP81E, SP81, and SP80 and CP80DX.
The PM800/805 seem to be less impressive but it could be the extra muffler just makes them seem more tame. The PM850 Super is just the PM800, the PM8200 is totally different design but right in there with the PM800. My DE80 is lagging behind the other 82cc saws but it has the most wear of the all.
All of those models use the same anti-vibe system with some difference in the lower brace. Others with the same anti-vibe would be PM570, SP60, and SP70. The CP55 and CP70 also used the same front & rear anti-vibe mounts but had a different arrangement on the bottom.
It is certainly worth putting some time & effort into making the 81 a runner.

Looks fast.
Tim, don’t get your hopes too high on that oiler spring. I have had a couple and don’t believe they work any better than the clip. Much easier to install though.
Screws from the top is the only sure way I have found.
