McCulloch Chain Saws

[rwoods]

Looks like one of those spy photos - just enough to make out a subject but not clear enough to confirm. What is it made from - flat stock or rod? Ron

 

[sawfun]

Sorry for the blurry photo, and it is made out of rod with tubing over parts of it as stiffeners. I will try for a better photo tonight.

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.

What intake? Stock bdc sloper?

 

[rwoods]

Thanks. Pretty slick, I didn't think to use tube sleeves as stiffeners. Ron

 

[sawfun]

Sloper intake but no name on it. It appears billet not cast.

Thanks, we had bending issues with just the rod and the idea came to me yesterday while in the hardware store.

A couple of less blurry shots.

We used 1/16 stainless rod and 3/16 stainless tubing.

what is a CP 55 worth these days ? ballpark.
i put one in the tradin' post.

A non runner should be about free and a decent runner between $50 - $150 depending on condition and handle types and bars. Its basically a 10-10 variant and those don't bring much $$$.

thanks sawfun-i'll put the carb kit in it & get it running.

Basically a 10-10 but it has a/v. Worth more than a 10-10 but not worth as much as a cp-70.

I just seen your ad. The price is steep for a running half wrap cp-55 in my opinion. Your best bet to get that price range is eBay. I paid 60 shipped for my running cp55.

thanks mac 6-10-didn't know they had a full wrap. don't like my hand on the chain side anyway. only small mac i've had.

Two weeks ago I bought a super 6-10A (70cc) non runner but it pops on a prime, has a full wrap, and a nice Mac 20" rollernose w/logo for $15. This was at a swap meet for old equipment and tools so I wasn't the first to come across it. I n ought a good runner just like this one, but with a 28" bar for $100.

I would love a full wrap for a rigid mount 10 series

As soon as I get it running, I will make you a good price on this 6-10. Pm me of interested. Both of my super 6-10A's came equipted this way, maybe because I am in the PNW. Even the bars are both nice logo'd Mac rollernose.

 

[Mac 6-10]

I just want the handle bar. I have a practically new super 6-10a.

Yes, just get the clip and wedge it in place. It will work with any of the oil pumps, but the "kit" also included a couple of brass rivets or bushings that installed in the two bottom holes of the plastic automatic oil pump bodies. I am not sure if they were intended primarily to prevent the metal clip from digging into the body, or if they were intended more to help position the gasket under the pump body.

Took me about 5 tries but I think I got the spring clip installed correctly on my 10-10 oil pump!

On second thought maybe I dont. It feels loose even with the curve in it. So I took a screw driver and pushed the curve in so it has some pressure on it. Hope that is right.

With the exception of the rewind I have this one back together. Apparently moving pieces of saws around for a year and a half causes one to loose parts so I am missing the washer and screw that hold the rewind pulley onto the spring housing. Other than that we will see how the oil tank gasket works. I had a new old stock one that didn't fit over the studs because it was dry. I soaked between some wet paper towels and it slipped right on. I was going to let it dry but instead I decided to screw on the tank cover. Before I pour in oil I could pop off the cover and hi-tack the gasket if you guys think that is wiser.
