You are obviously thinking with a clearer head than mine! I think I need a tattoo on back of both hands , that says " Work Smarter, Not Harder" . Thanks @Mycamaro_68 :)

I stumbled upon what appears to be part of a ipl for the 600038-xx series . Includes some torque and thread locker recommendations. @ray benson , pls feel free to add it to your files if you don't have it already. Again, thanks for your support to the/ our community of ope users.

Thanks @Mycamaro_68 . Definitely worth pulling the cylinder to check with micrometer :)

I have a 2006 Troy-Bilt / McCulloch (Jenn Feng era) 35cc chainsaw (TB3516cc/MCC1635a). I have access to a very nicely priced piston/cylinder kit from the 40cc version (MCC1840b). After comparing the IPLs of both saws, I see that beyond the P/C , the difference is the carb: WT808 vs WT808A. Both...

Sorry, posted in wrong forum o_O Reposted in Chainsaws

Attn @ray benson I wasn't able to get service info, but did get a very clear pdf of the OM and IPL combined. Feel free to add to your archives. Eoin :)

Thanks @ray benson , I'll give that a try . I "think" I have an air filter and housing coming from China via Ebay. Price was too low to NOT give it a try. Delivery estimate is several weeks. Agains Thanks :)

Thanks @ray benson for searching from your end. I've been doing a lot of searches looking for parts, based on the McCulloch or MTD part #s. Pretty much everything is "no longer available" . Some #s cross to saws from Partner and or Alpina in Europe. If I happen to stumble upon any resources...

I'm hoping I might find a service manual that covers a 2006 Troy Bilt TB3516cc . Part # 41AY36NR966 . My searches online suggest that it is the same as McCulloch MCC1635a . There is a sticker on the saw with the replacement chain part #6220-210813 . It shows as a McCulloch part #. I don't need a...

Thanks Ray Benson! I still have the owners manual from 1998, but the file you provided is far superior to the OM. My saw looks like the one you referenced, but with yellow recoil and clutch covers. Maybe to make it look more " McCulloch-ish?? Thanks again :)

Looking for service manual for model 600038-48. Saw is labelled PM425AV18. MS1838AV "looks" the same. Seems to be a fairly rare beast. Thanks :)

I used to use Motomaster semi synthetic (Sold at Canadian Tire) or Stihl Premium , 40:1 in my 2 older saws, and 32:1 in my 25 year old trimmer. This spring I switched to Red Armour at the same ratios. So far , noticeable reduction in smoke and plug fouling. Might just be a reflection on how...
