Morning everybody.
Started tinkering with a little Mcculloch last night. Late model little thing. Box saw. Looks like a Zenoah engine. I'm using a Ryobi as a road map. Virtually same setup, so its handy. Get it together enough to check for spark tonight. If good, I'll finish it up tonight and see if it will light off. Found some nos bars last night digging through the pile. See if one fits.

If it's the 38 or 41 cc version, it is a copy of the Zenoah strato engine originally made for RedMax. The Zenoah with strato was put in a few Craftsman saws, some Ryobis and maybe some others. As a non-strato it went into McCulloch, Earthquake, TroyBilt, and a whole bunch of others. I can lead you to a parts place if you need stuff...

Darn!
Cool find anyway.

Morning midlanders!

I’ve been up since 1:30 so I got the GL-7R ready for test fire. Ditched the Wright/Tilly for a proper Remy item. Now wait until 8 for the noise curfew to lift.[emoji849]

Workers took pride in doing their jobs back in that time.
Like you mentioned, fit and finish was important.
Not so much now.
