Hey all. Been lurking the last couple of weeks I'd like to say thanks for the great information on carb tuning.
So a couple of weeks ago I tore up the mother in law's Husq while sawing through the main parts of the trunk of a 200 year old white oak tree, (of course it was poor technique) as I'm a newbie to chainsaws. To make a long story short I got sent home with 4 chainsaws that hadnt been started in years.
I got the two Poulans running on the first pull with little trouble. I am giving up on the vintage Sears model for now. But the last one is the an early 90's McCoulluch Timber Bear.
In your opinions, is the Timber Bear worth cleaning up and seeing if she'll run and maybe doing a complete overhaul?
I admit I am gun shy when I looked at the illustrated parts guides.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
