If I can get my Dads 10/10

If I can get my Dads 10/10, what to expect?

Carb kit and rubber lines.
Will the fuel tank paint be peeled?
At 15lb can it get ported to offset its tonnage?

This was a popular saw, fixes seem about right. Porting ask Mastermind or blsnelling or some of the mcculloch gurus on this site. Someone on here will steer you in the right direction.

Wish I could help you more, but I think I gave you good contacts that can steer you in the right direction.

IMO forget about the porting bug on a 10-10. Enjoy it for what it is, especially if it has sentimental value. I think everyone should have a 10-10. Although they don't bring much money, they are good old vintage saws. There are tons of parts available and they actually perform fairly well for their age (sound cool too). Mine makes me smile, and I'll always have it.

I'd try to run it first. I started my 1-10 today which is quite similar to your saw. The interesting part is that this saw has languished in the garage since 1992...... last time it was actually run. I poured the remainder of the thick tank mix out last fall.
Fresh mix in the tank and it fired up after about 15 pulls.
One forgets how loud these old saws are!
YRMV of course.
