This is a pretty basic question considering and it may have been covered but I can't find it. What is everyone's method for tuning the lo needle? I always seem to struggle here and all of the tuning info I can find always concentrates on the hi which I have no problem with. I struggle with...

I've been wondering about these clone 070 saws. I searched but only could find an old thread from 2012. Wondering if some are better than others? Pre-built or build it yourself? Neotec? Farmertec? Some other brands? Anyone run any and have any firsthand experience? My interest is purely...

These problems never happen on my own saws!!!! Husky 345 I agreed to rebuild for a guy. Topend was scored, put in a Chinese piston and cylinder, new crank bearings and seals, fuel line, impulse line, fuel filter, spark plug. I also molded the intake clamp to accept a steel worm clamp. Tried a...

Somebody make me an offer on this saw! I've had it listed both locally and here for months and no bites, I'm probably too high on my price but I'm not sure what it's worth. I will throw in a 24inch bar and good chain for the right price. New fuel line,filter, carb kit, runs and cuts great. I...

A couple of months ago I asked here about upgrading my speeco 22 ton splitter to get a faster cycle time. I ended up going with a 16gpm pump and an 8hp engine. It turned out very well and I am happy with it. However, I have been bitten by the bug to build a splitter the way I want it. The idea...

I have a 22 ton speeco splitter. I want to upgrade the pump to get a faster cycle time. I already have an 11HP Briggs and Stratton engine off of a generator that a buddy will turn the crank to standard 3/4 for me. The current pump is 11GPM 2 stage. What size pump should I be looking for to...

Sorry in advance, this is long winded. This is a customer saw (again lol) saw appears pretty abused and neglected. He claims he only uses canned fuel (although the other saw I have of his had water in the fuel and a very nasty carb) his complaint was that it would start and run ok for a while...

This is a customers saw. About a year ago, I did a mild port job, muffler mod, base gasket delete, and new ring. The saw ran awesome for about 3 months then started acting like it had an air leak. Quick and dirty test with some carb cleaner indicated a leak in the inake boot area so I tore it...

Ok guys, I've posted about this before. I am in search of an 82cc Mac. A have put aside a decent amount of money to purchase one. I also have a Homelite superXL925 that is a good runner that I would trade or partial trade. I dont mind a project as long as it's mostly complete and salvageable. I...

Scored this clean but apparently in need of a top end 350 today and got a NIB OE 346xp top end with it. Paid $120 which was the cost of the top end. Obviously I am wanting g to build this. I'm not finding what I am looking for with the search. Is this a simple top end swap or is there other...

Had this saw given to me by a customer. It runs fine and actually oiled great, he just didn't like that the chain brake didnt work lol. I was thinking it might be worth fixing to flip. It would need the case, all the chain brake guts, and a sprocket and clutch at minimum. What is one of these...

I am working on a low hour MS170 that a customer did not want to put any money into. Figure if I can fix it cheap enough I can make a couple bucks on it. Is there an adjustable carb that can be swapped on this easily? It has the "snorkel" style carb. The saw acts lean and wont stay running. I...

Up for sale is a Homelite C71, selling powerhead only, it runs good and cuts excellent. Cosmetically, it isn't the prettiest with some mismatched colors but it runs and cuts excellent. I have rebuilt the carb and replaced the fuel lines and filter. I can provide video of it running. I am looking...

This is probably the worst bar I've ever seen. Pictures dont do it justice. The ditch is worn so deep that the drive links where bottoming in the groove! Edges rolled over, rails uneven, you name it, this one had it. This was on an old Lombard that was recently given to me. So post up your worst...

I just got this Lombard Comango. I was able to get it running with a quick carb rebuild and fuel lines. It will get a complete clean up. The sprocket, bar, and chain are totally whiped out. I see it uses the same bar mount pattern as echo/mcculloch so no problem there. Can anyone confirm that...

I picked up this Roper built Sears 3.7 for free. I replaced all of the fuel and oil lines and fuel filter. Still wouldnt run. So I went through the carb and found the diaphragms very stiff. I couldnt find any info or parts for the Nikki carb but through trial and error I found that Tillotson HS...

I tried searching but couldnt really find what I was looking for. I bought a cheap harbor freight ultrasonic cleaner primarily for doing carbs. What are guys running for cleaner in these? I tried dish soap and water, that was mediocre at best. I've heard simple green but have also heard it...
