Mcculloch 790

Would like to have a few opinions of this beast. Had to rebuild the flat back carb, and tweak the needle in carb so it stays running without flooding. Also may be looking for the air filter and cover plus the crossbar that hold both in place. As I have lost mine since saw was in storage.

They are nice saws when (if) they run well... I got two 795 (almost identical) but haven't started them in years. The primer pumps used on those carbs can be a PITA - your flooding problem might be a leaking primer pump.

Primer seems in good condition for time being. Think it was gust the needle sticking open had to adjust spring and holding key

They're good saws, I have one and a 795, replaced the flatbacks with tilly HL's and they run good. Not much else to say
