MCCULLOCH The official McCulloch thread

[hseII]

I'm working on a project to help one of our fellow members with a need. Anyone out there have a muffler or muffler parts, and/or the lightweight cylinder shroud for an SP81?

I need to get this finished up in the next 10 days or so in order to get it sent out for the NY GTG.

Thanks fellas.

Mark

I've got a NOS duct. Will it help?

See Above.

Steve - can you get the duct coming my way? I have a NOS reed type muffler cover that will fit that body. I will keep looking for a baffle to go inside or take the old one apart and see if the baffle is salvageable.

I am also in need of a good fuel tank for this project. In the process of cleaning this one out I discovered the corrosion went all the way through the bottom.



I also found another tank that was given to me by John Bond in Oregon but someone tried to repair a stripped thread for the carburetor with an oversize insert and the hole broke out of the boss.



I cleaned up the threads and will try to install a proper insert with some epoxy but I will have to find a way to machine the hole in the bottom back to round again to insure the boot achieves a good seal.

The proper tank for this one has the hole for the boot over the adjusting needles for the carburetor.

Thank You Both.

You're welcome! I mean, it's not for Mark?...

It’s for another member’s saw that Mark is repairing.

Will this work for you?

 

[Al Smith]

The boot isn't real easy to find for those things .An oil tight knock out closure for electrical will work but it's kind of a pain in the buttocks .I suppose in a pinch duct tape would work .One thing is for certain you don't want to leave the hole open .That thing could suck a peck sack full of sawdust through the engine which certainly is not desirable .

Joey - PM sent.

Steve - the muffler on the saw has a useable baffle so with your duct and my cover the muffler is taken care of.

Does anyone out there have a spare cylinder shroud for an SP80/81?

The shroud is in the same package coming to you.

Muffler is on its way! Should be there Thursday!

 

[TJ the Chainsaw Mechanic]

10-10 automatic clean and tuned up for a co-worker. I'm officially the antique saw guru at that place. haha Got me a 10-10A in trade for making this a good runner for him so I'm happy.

 

[Steve]

Everyone should own a 10-10A. Not a pro Mac, just a plain 10-10A.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

That's how I got my first Mac(s). A guy brought me three 10-10A's just like yours and said if I could get one running for him I could have the other two. One was just a parts carcass and the other two had hosed up recoils with sprung springs. Didn't know a whole lot about saws then, let alone Macs. Once I figured out which way the springs went in (after several tries doing it the wrong way) I had two good runners. Gave the nicer looking one to the guy and kept the one with the most compression. Have a dozen or so of em now...LOL.

Got two 10-10as and a 10-10pro. Love them and my Mac Stable which is growing
