Thank you for the complement Milkman, I did finish the break in yesterday and got it all put back together. really the only adjustment that I had to do was with the lovejoy coupler everything else was a simple matter of plug and play. My next goal on the splitter is to make a removable table for...

So it turns out my old screen name is still tied to Tapatalk but newoldschool and newoldschool2 are one in the same I apologize for the double profile can’t log into the old one so I made a new one. I look forward to hopefully getting more done tomorrow but no promises

everyone thank you for all the quick replies, ill go look for the screw again and see if I can find some star edge washers at the local hardware store and use locktite

well I finally got around to putting a duel port muffler on my 044. everything was tight when I left the shop. I made some cuts and when I took a break for fuel/ touch up the chain I noticed that one of my screws that hold on the spark arrester screen had vibrated out. I have circled them in red...

well I did not have much time to work on the splitter project this weekend but I did pick up the motor from Harbor freight. I am going to try and get it bolted up and atleast broken in this weekend. some nice features that I noticed while I briefly had it out of the box are as follows. I will...

Hey ChoppyChoppy, Yeah its a little nutty to be swapping the whole thing out over a carb issue. I am honestly just not a fan of the Tecumseh. I have rebuilt this carb once and the next year I had to replace it. I look at is as a fun "mini" project and it might be helpful to someone else down the...

well I have decided to go ahead and do the motor swap. there is a guy at work that loves the Tecumseh motors so ill sell it to him to cover the cost of the Harbor Freight 301cc. I figure ill document the process so if anyone needs to do this in the future they will have a look at what is...

darn I got the email from TSC this morning about the 25ton for $799, yall are just too quick for me if I was in the market I would totally jump on that deal

well now that the weather is getting cooler. it is time to split some wood. I went out to the shed yesterday to start the old splitter and no dice. While it was sitting parked in the shed the rubber fuel line worked its way off the plastic gas tank(no barb on the tank nipple) so I corrected that...

Hey FishNJ I do not have any experience with the Fradans but I do have a Little Wonder 6hp(used off CL for $500). The only reason I went with the 6hp Honda was for the weight savings and I found a mint one used. If I was not working on a hill I would have been all over the larger 8 or 13hp...

well some of yall have probably seen my new saw in the other McCulloch thread, but when I was doing research on it I ran across this thread dedicated to the 10-10. It is a 10-10S special edition bow saw I picked up. I ran it yesterday and it seemed to cut and run well. I do need to get a new...

well bought my first mac today its a 10-10s special edition bow saw. it does run I have not had a chance to dig into it I was on a rush to snap it up on my lunch break. I figured the bow was worth what I paid

well I'm not sure this will count as a "you suck" but I just picked up a 10-10s bow saw up off one of the social media trash and treasure groups. the saw looks pretty good and it runs. the guy I bought it from said that he put a carb kit in it and patched the plug wire. I'm not sure how special...

well it has taken awhile to get some time to work on the 036. yesterday I pulled it apart and cleaned the recoil starter up. I did wind up putting in a new spring and it is back to the way it should be. thank you for everyone that weighed in with the helpful advice. Now if I can just get time to...

would you happen to have a chain break for a stihl 026?

thank you for the advice on the recoil spring. I look forward to giving it a shot. there is nothing more annoying that a string that wont return

hello all, I have been a member for awhile but for some reason I cant get into my old account. I was using my 036 pro the other weekend and the starter rope is very slow to retract back into the housing. I did order a new spring just in case but I figured I would post up and see if there are...
