McCulloch Chain Saws

The 805's were less common than the PM800, neat looking color scheme with the black flywheel cover and extensive use of socket head fasteners. The cylinders are harder to come by than the as they either had the Q port or the coarse threaded compression release above the muffler.

I did notice it had a compression release at the muffler side. I'll try to get some pics later, I have a 10-10 and the SP81 out for some "exercise" on a neighbors Mimosa tree.

My dad had ( 2 ) 805's, which I now have. Strong running saw.

Added some pics of the 805. The P&C look to be in good shape. Other than having to gather up missing bolts, I think it could be made into a runner.

I have 805 #'s 011468 and 011687

I'd say ours may have the same birthday.

Q port and compression release, a full house.

Take care of the compression release, the ones with the coarse thread are hard to find. Since you have the Q port, you can get by with a short 3/8-16 hex head cap screw to hold the muffler brace in place.

I had a nice 805 I traded to a Mac lover Al Smith. Felt it is better in his hands then mine.

Just took in trade a 1 owner 555 with original mac b+c too.

1 owner trade in for lighter saw. Past owner says original b+c too.

The PM555 is basically the PM55 with the long clutch cover. I have a PM55 with a new piston and cylinder, one of my favorite saws to run with cutting smaller stuff.

Thanks for info. I know nothing about Mac's and always try to get them into the right peoples hands.
Mac lover Al Smith helped me with the gas cap and idle screw that was needed for this one. So I will offer it to him first to add to his mac collection. He is also the one that got the 805 above from me.

Came in this.

WOW


Does anyone want to buy a new mcculloch.
This thing is listed on Fleabay as a Poulan.
Sure looks like a Poulan!

I wonder if that new Mac is available in a gear drive version, say like a 538 .

 

[Rocketross57]

I don't know if anyone else noticed but at the very top of that I.D. Tag on that "Mcculloch" it says Husqvarna. What's up with that??

 

[OldDeadWood]

Husqvarna has owned McCulloch for a while now.

Did you notice that it's made in Italy.

If you run across a McCulloch model 77 or 4-30A or early 3-25 two button saw can you try to get them into my hands? All i really look for are the early saws they are what i like tinkering with and some are hard to find. Been hunting a 77 for awhile now, no luck yet. Only a seized one. I want an early 4-30 with 3-25 bar and rubber plug, around the first 200 were like this until they updated the handle and cover. And any two button 3-25 all original. Is very hard to find.


Thanks,

Nick

Scored a 20" roller nose with chain today for my SP81 and a older Oregon bar mount file guide at an estate sale. $10.50 for all. Excited to go see how it does. All I have ever used on it so far is a 36" roller nose.

Good news on the BDC 101b front. Big Mike was able to make up a decent working throttle linkage and even fabricated a choke linkage that all fits under the hood.
