I don’t think y’all have started a 2025 thread yet, so here’s my sucking already! Homelite 550 that I traded a mcbrick for and an allis chalmers that I traded a few project saws for.

The 50th anniversary Wild Thing I got last week, I mainly bought it because of how good the bar looks. It runs and cuts, it just doesn't want to idle for more than 3 or 4 seconds without bumping the throttle.
Not saying this is the problem with yours, but I have a Poulan Woodshark 1950, it had the same problem. A rebuild to the carburetor fixed it. It ran great until this last fall when it developed internal issues and I had to tear into it.....still waiting on parts.
 
Picked up a couple saws last weekend. Guy said his dad gave them to him and h didnt know how to work on them or need them. Makita DCS540 and 6401. He said he knew the 540 ran but didnt know anything about the 6401. Both of them cranked right up. 540 came with new chain. 6401 had new bar and chain. $80 for both of them. Gave my dad the 6401 for the farm.
