Has anyone seen or heard of a McCulloch 400?
On the bottom of my 450 its stamped 400-450
Did they make them?
A guy on another site was asking about it. His saw has the same stamping on it.

Was that on CSCF? IIRC a few fellows there said that they'd seen the 400-450 stamping on every 450 that they'd come across. Nice saw BTW.

You are telling me to explode a sp tank?!? Where's the love of macs here?:msp_confused:

I like explosives as much as i like macs

I've fixed 2 125I tanks with Threebond. Takes some time to flow it and the one took 2 attemptz, but it worked.

Do NOT blow it apart...

What is three bond? Did you use vacuum to pull it in?

I wouldn't contemplate blowing it up. The best practical way I have heard of separating the tanks are to put water in them and freeze them. The water expanding will separate them in a non violent fashion. I still like the idea of using vacuum on it.

Just go to Google and look for 'Threebond 1194' ... essentially the same thing as Hondabond or Yamabond. Put it in a dry tank and rotate very slowly so the seam gets thoroughly covered. Will take a bit of time to set up and dry completely.

Exactly. In through the gas cap and it will flow around. I do one seam at a time and leave it lay over night, then the next side. Just empty the tank and leave it sitting for a day or two to dry out first.

Kind of slipped off my radar. I am in the office a few days this week, maybe I will remember to grab that catalog and birng it to work and scan it.

Anyone else having trouble reading the posts this morniing? All of the sudden the pages all shrank and the print shows up at about 2 point.

I have used double sided 3M tape like the kind used for applying automotive emblems. For sealing those gas tanks it works great, I've done it several times. Just remove the old cork and lay the tape down around the fuel tank and the air box. After you've assembled it you can come back with a razor knife and trim it.

Post #10385

Going to try this on my 1-70 project, great idea!

Couple posts down describes the hose over a hose method to replace the 10-10 series fuel lines, another great idea.

Old posts, but I "liked" them anyway.

Thanks!

awhile back we were talking about a way to seal the gas tank on a 10 series saw. i was sealing a tank on an old 7-10 today and thought i'd take some photos.

wipe the saw with alcohol so the 3M will stick

My usual method of inserting a picture is not working either?

I usually save the post, copy the link, edit the post using the url, not working for me today....

Thanks Aaron,
Yeah it was over there, I thought I would post it here to see if anybody knew.

Whats up with Avatars? I see 4 or 5 guys with the same one...

My visual display problem was solved by holding the Ctrl key while operating the scroll wheel on the mouse, guess I was guilty of sleepy fingers earlier in the day and changed it without realizing it.

Yep. The Yamabond/Suzukibond/Kawasakibond/Hondabond formula that you need is #4 (as in Hondabond-4 or Yamabond-4). That's the match for Threebond 1194. The package that my tube of Hondabond-4 came in has 1194 as part of the Honda part #. Other numbers of Hondabond/etc (such as Hondabond-5) are different products.

Just some juvenile shenanigans Cliff. It'll revert back to 'normal' once the right fellow logs on and notices the change.:cool2:
