Buy of the day for you wrench-heads.

That does not look like an 850, a cp70, maybe, but the rear handle and no muffler cover are good clues.

I've seen that listing before definitely not an 850

Working on the Mac 250 and trying to figure out the duckbill valve. Are the Mac's Homelite style or the Poulan? I got some Homelite valves, but knowing me it takes Poulan ones.

@happysaws did the Remington supers come with guidebar plates?

No, they did not.

 

[Kensie1988]

No, they did not.

Ok I was thinking they didn't but wanted to make sure, and why did they make the crank so long? It's almost wore a hole strait through the cover.

Is that the Super 660? Mine is like that too;

Some of the earlier Bantams had a right-hand starter, so the crankshaft was longer on that side to accommodate the starter cup. Not sure why they used that crankshaft in the 660...

If you were to locate longer bar studs, a starter cup and right-hand starter, you could have two working starters on the same saw... [emoji41]

I remember my father in law having a right hand start saw but can't remember what brand it was. That was the first and only saw I have ever seen like that.

A lot of the early Macs were right hand start

Man every time I run that super XL I brings me pure joy, I know why it stuck around for so long.
