Want to Buy McCulloch Super 250

[camer_1107]

Hey guys I’m just wondering if anybody has a McCulloch Super 250 that they would be willing to sell me. I had one that ran great after I changed out the stock carb for a tillotson flatback and it was my favorite chainsaw by far; I had a lot of good times with that beast. Unfortunately it was recently destroyed when my garage burned down, so that’s why I’m looking for a new one.

One with a tillotson flatback carburetor is preferred, although I can work with the McCulloch carb if need be.

Thanks.

I have a complete survivor 250 no B&C.
1963 non super 83cc is my best guess. Runs perfect all original. This is not an automatic.

Thank you, I’ll keep that in mind. However I was in truth hoping to find another Super 250.

I should have one

Ok thanks, pm me more details if you can.

I dug one out last night. I believe it was a runner when shelved but that was 10 years or more ago

Thanks for looking, I appreciate it. However, I have already purchased a couple other ones from another user on this site.

Given that, I'm not too familiar with using the buy and sell portions on these forums, so if I am supposed to close the thread or delete it someone can let me know. Thanks again everyone.

Good thing I did not spend anymore time on it then.

I recently acquired a 250, but the top cover label is so faded as to be un-readable. Is there any other way to identify exactly what this saw is? No dogs, choke button is damaged. Carburetor is marked HL63G. I haven't tried to start it yet, but it has good compression. Ball park estimated value?

You can always ask in the Mcculloch stickie thread, but check the casting on the bottom of the saw, should have a casting number, if its '64281' it would be the 82cc version of the 250. I am not sure the casting number for an 87cc saw but you can measure the stroke with a skewer or other long insert. Should be 1.375" for 82cc and 1.5" for 87cc

Thank you. I found '62481', and also '101597'. So the '62481' means it is 82cc, which would be the earlier version, is that correct? Would that be early sixties, or perhaps 1950s even? I'm wondering what is the chronological relation between the 250, the 10-10, and the 797. I was limbing & topping for my dad when I was 15 in 1968.
