I'm working on my ol' Mac 10-10 (early 70's vintage) and have already ordered everything in the fuel/ air department but want to get the spark up to par. I got a new spark plug, of course, and the plug fires as it should but it's not a nice bluish spark.
I suspect the points are probably oxidized or need to be gapped.
I have several options, I could remove the flywheel, clean and regap the points.
I could order new points and condenser ... anyone know where I can get these?
Or, I could order an electronic ignition chip to replace the points/ condenser, like the one in the following link.
IGNITION CHIP REPLACES POINTS CONDENSER MCCULLOCH 10-10 | eBay
Any suggestions or thoughts.
I just want the saw working well again, it a great saw when it's running right.
Need it for backup and bigger stuff than my Husky 16" blade will handle.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
