MCCULLOCH The official McCulloch thread

[hacskaroly]

Their buddies had never seen how well a properly tuned old McCulloh can run .

That is one thing I am finding, the older saws are fun to work on and can run really well!!

Finally back from vacation and got word these diaphragms and other gaskets for the 3-25 I had been working on are complete. I have a few more little items I'll be adding to the kits but for now I have these two products posted and ready for purchase.

Picked up a couple of old guide bars today. Two of them are McCulloch, one of them is a Remington, the one mocked up on the 797 I'm not sure about. The part number in the picture is of the Super Pro bar, I can't find much information on it.

86882 Bar, 28" Super Pro, .058 List $27.25 in 1973

Would be $199 today correcting for inflation.

SP 81 cylinder (sleeved), I used a PM 850 tank for testing while the Red Kote in the 81 tank cured. The first saw I put together with a sleeve would run 90 seconds the die from lack of compression. When is cooled down compression would come back up to 140 PSI or so. Repeat...

This one seems to work O.K. I ran it for 30 minutes or saw and is seemed like the compression kept getting better. I used an 850 muffler since I had the parts available.
