Looks like an Intermediate 5 to me unless I got my tubs confused, what year is that thing 75?

No disrespect but I worked in the shop that rented the machine I was inquiring about and between the two other mechanics they have about 70 years of lawn/turf/small engine/mechanical experience. Some of the clutches you cannot tell the difference at all. We have since parted the machine out...

I took my 288xp lite down for a rebuild, cold right after I put it together it blew 160psi no run time. As soon as I find my vacuum leak problem now i'll get a few tanks on it and get another reading. The little time I had it running I was shocked at how it reacted, totally brutal. :rock:

^ Haha I work for an Elite dealer and we get that stuff all the time, my favorite is someone wants a governor spring or a carb kit for a briggs, welllllllllll what model? I don't know it's a horizontal shaft with the carb attached to the fuel tank. Wellll they only made eleven billion different...

I just need the crankcase I can't afford another whole saw right now.

I'm hunting a bare crankcase for a husky 288xp. Mine is cracked and un repairable. Anybody has anything or knows anybody that has anything shoot me a PM or reply in this thread. Thanks!

Not really defending my dad. I'm pissed about what happened obviously as any of you would be. I just like threads to stay on topic and don't like hearing the safety police chime in on matters that they weren't there that is all. There wasn't anywhere handy to tie the saw off to the bucket and...

Blah Blah Blah, if you didn't want to be a wise ass you would have kept your comment to yourself, and kept the thread on topic. If you've never run a big saw, not exactly what I want tied to me in a bucket, let it fall. Especially with one ground guy on the ground on the job and him being a...

Posted up in the wanted ad of the classifieds, figured I could get some better exposure here as well. I desperately need a used 288xp crankcase. Mine broke from a fall out of the bucket when my dad was using it. Cheaper the better. If anyone has one that isn't bare, i'd be possibly...

Went to look at this one, dude was exaggerating a good bit. Idk what his deal was when he told me about this but whatever. He decided he wants 3 out of 5 stumps total cut down about 8-12in and then ground, they are closer to 36" max. I told him $300 he said okay. I think I'm into it okay...

Jed your right :) 40in includes flare supposedly, gotta go eyeball this job again and make a decision. He is peachy keen on just even with grade. Reason i'm not sure he'll bite on grinding is it would wind up being at least another 200-250 bucks for me to drag the grinder out. I'd have...

^ That was my thought originally around 200-300 tops. I've never done a job like this so I wasn't sure how you guys would do something like that. Normally if i'm doing some pruning or a take down I'll charge either hourly or I use a little formula to calculate. I'm not insured and I operate...

I had an individual ask me to take a look at their property, they had ten to fifteen 40in diameter hardwoods, mixed oak and cherry, snap off, blow down, or was taken down at some point. They just acquired the property and are looking to have them stumped out flush with the ground. I am not...

Good Video, this ain't my first rodeo though, just having trouble distinguishing this one for some reason :cool2: Sweeeeeeeeet. I didn't know where the starting point was for this Tilly, I did 1 and 1 and a 1/4 I think, can't remember. I'll go give em a twist and see what I get :msp_thumbup:

^ Good Point LOL. I'm 23, 6'1 and 230 lbs....yeahhh maybe your right :msp_biggrin:

Thanks guys, i'll see what I can get the ole timer to do. Has anybody that ever ran one been able to lean on it and stall the chain out? I'm wondering if my clutch isn't starting to go a little bit...If I dawg it in good and heavy I can stall the chain out.

I have a 770G with a 28in Oregon Armor Tip and 1/2" pitch chain on it. I am trying to get it tuned in just right but had some questions. Do these 770G's have a governor on them of some type? I'm trying to tune it by ear but am having trouble because it is so doggone loud. I was watching some...

Hey guys new to Mac's but not new to saws at all. Had a few questions about my Mac 250 I have recently got running. Oddly enough I was able to fit a large mount husky bar onto my studs without much issue at all. Has anyone ever adapted a SP80 clutch drum and rim drive to a 250? I'm thinking...

^ What is your user name on NAXJA? I recognized that trail rig from the SEC. I'm in the NAC.

I run Sunoco 100 in my saws, and leaded 112 out of the pump in my 78 Suzuki RM250. The lead is for lubricity as well.
