Is this a 250
Looks like a 380 I had a while ago, 87 cc and heavy! This is on Kijiji in Ontario, if I was closer I'd have picked it up but made do with a 1-42 locally. Only 80 cc's, but still YELLOW!:hmm3grin2orange:

Could be one but the experts will be along as they say parts can be swapped. Does it have a primer or a choke? I cannot see if there is a hole in the pic for the choke lock screw.
With a full wrap handle it could very well be a 1-52 or 1-53, other choices are 300 or 380 with the long, black top cover.
All are 87 cc, 50/50 chance they will have an HL or McCulloch flat back carburetor.

Experts will be along, but based on what can been seen I'd say it's not a Super 250 because the AF cover is wrong; but that's not to say it couldn't have been swapped out with another.
Bottom line is you won't know forabsolutelypositivelysure until the numbers stamped into the underside of the block are known.
I can't answer that as the pictures are from an for sale add. I have dealt with the seller befoe and he wouldn't know anything about it.
Ted, I think someone told me once on here that the numbers aren't always stamped on these saws. I was about to buy a 250 from a person local to me but we couldn't find any numbers on the bottom. I didn't buy it and it's still there.

Like Mark said, it could be a number of any saws. Either way, you still NEED it right?

You're right, they're not always there. Someone once posted a pic where there were two numbers crossed out and a third that was legible. Like they couldn't decide in mid-run what saw to make!

Whatever it is, that's an interesting choice on the background to market a saw you want to sell... Talk about a mess...
The pictures make his place look really good compared to what it is. There are a bunch of trailers. It's safer to walk around a mine field but he does offer a chair to step on to get into the trailers. The 6000 miles of wire on the floor doesn't help.
Good guy though just trying to make a living.

The reason I ask is because I have a Titan 50 coil. It may fit the others as well. Also, I made a 10-series coil fit the Titan 620, the same maybe could be done for the other models as well.

Where can I find an IPL for a 1-42? Would be useful in my restoration attempts. I'll take the compression reading tomorrow and report back.
Many thanks

Send me a PM with your email address and ill get one sent to you tomorrow.
Old friend Woody called me a few days ago to say he was setting aside some part for me. I took my wife for a drive today and came home with the back of the Ranger pretty well filled again.
Lots and lots of small items to go through, a few big ones that are more obvious.

Getting started with Big Macs...
I was raised in south Arkansas timberland/farm country helping dad and grandpa cut firewood, clear roads, etc. Unfortunately, the old McCullochs they used (save one parts saw) were stolen to finance a neighbor's drug habit a few years ago. I'm trying to pick up a few for my own use, and I hope I'm off to a good start...
I bought this 380 a couple of nights ago. Does everything look more or less right? Carb and muffler correct? I think my Grandfather's old parts saw is a similar model.
Also, I just found a Pro Mac 850- some assembly required! It was taken apart to receive a new carb kit and never put back together. Looks clean and complete.
Thanks for all I've already learned from browsing the forum!
