McCulloch Chain Saws

[Breckinridge Elkins]

Inventory say I have them NOS.

I think I found them. Thank you for the help.

anyone know what this is? guy says it has a 4 ft bar on it.

Pm 1000 ? That reminds me I still need a coil for mine.

 

[flatsfisher]

thanks Bob. I googled that and I think you're right. I just read they are a Swedish MAC from Partner? going to look at it this morning.

Chris - See if this helps.

Thanks Mark. I see a couple holes there not present on mine. That might be my answer there.

bought 3 rough saws this morning. they all pull through and have decent compression. 372XP, really rough MS440 and the yellow one which is freaking huge. thinking this one might be tough to find parts for?

Problem solved. Punched 2 more holes based on that scan and it is oiling now. Many thanks. Saw even starts and runs without trying to yank my arm out after tightening the points a couple thousandths.

My finished 890 and 795, both with Mark's rebuilt primers.

I gave him 125.00 for the set. less than he was asking. could have got it for less but they were pretty poor folks and had a little girl. he said his dad had a small tree service and ran the Partner/MAC when he was a kid. said it was running when his dad put it up. when I was taking the top cover off, I could tell this thing hadn't been opened for a long, long time. the wasps had a field day.

weird handle.

Found this issue with my pm 700. Coil has major issues. Took one from another 700 and it fired on the first pull. Good to hear it roar back to life. Hope to let it eat a log tomorrow after work.

Frank - The McCulloch PM1000 is the same saw as the Partner P100, that will help a lot if you need to locate parts.

The only difference may be the bar mount, the McCulloch branded ones are D-176, the Partner ones may be something different.





If you happen to want/need a new piston assembly, I have a few available.

thanks mark. there is a shallow scratch on the exhaust side of the piston. the intake side of the cylinder looks great but haven't seen the exhaust side yet. It's rough but it might be worth messing with. wish they had put a compression release on these though. I think the bar will clean up but rust got the chain. shame cause there was plenty of life left in the cutters.

not sure what's up with my pictures.

Well, thats a great deal, and helping someone else out is a bonus!
I'd definitely rather have my saws go to someone who can take care of them.

@flatsfisher I know you like those 044s. The 372xp is also a very good saw.

@flatsfisher I know you like those 044s. The 372xp is also a very good saw.

the 044 I fixed up earlier is killing me. still rips the starter out of my hand almost every time. does not feel good. I know I have the air gap right and the crankshaft key is perfect. wish it had a compression release. as you know I have several other saws in that CC range, and they all start nicely. the 372xp I just got is in the best cosmetic condition of the 3, but pulling the starter does not feel smooth. something going on in there.

set up an electrolis tank and the chain will come out like new.
Best part is the longer you leave it in the less cleanup on it you have to do.
