McCulloch Mac 120 oiler

Just given a Mac 120 that hadn't been run in years, took the entire saw apart, cleaned it up including carb put it back together, got it running great. I made 1 mistake, there is a machine screw toward the bottom of the front cover, (not a fastener) I didn't count how many turns to remove it and I think it may be for the oiler adjustment, saw now seems to leak bar oil when it is not being used. Do I need to make an adjustment or is it common for them to leak when stored. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Tom

I think the problem is the funny rubber-hose-connection of the oil tank to the oil pump. It looks quite flimsy to me... But if you want I can have a look how this screw is adjusted...Bye, also tom

I've 7 chainsaws (1 Mac 110 & 1 Power Mac 320), all except the Husky 359 empty their oil tanks all over my bench if I forget to remove it. HTH

The machine screw is the oiler adjustment. The Owner's Manuals of both saws say 1/4 turn adjustment at a time. No starting point. To far in will probably damage the pump.

Mcculloch Mini Mac 30 Oiler does not work. cant figure out if it is the Oiler or the manual pump to feed the oiler

I recommend contacting your local authorized service center for assistance.

You may contact the manufacturer, download manuals, check fuel/oil ratios, order parts, find your local service center, and view other resources using these links:

How to run the fuel hoses for the MAC 3516. Most of the hoses have fallen apart so retracing the hoses is problematic

A McCulloch Mac 3516 model 21-600032-83 IPL example follows (may not be your saw):
The IPL (exploded parts list) for your saw is the only detail for fuel line routing and it is sketchy at best; components are listed but may be on different illustrations.
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/MCC/22-600032-83-Mac-3216-IPL-211229-01/139.22-600032-83-Mac-3216-IPL-211229-01.1.59.1.html

If the above is not your saw, yours can be located here:
McCulloch IPLs
http://www.ordertree.com/modelinfo/McCulloch/139.59.html

A typical fuel system and a couple of tips follow:
http://www.fixya.com/support/r3706813-_cycle_fuel_system_repair
If properly plumbed your saw will run with carb to primer hose capped off.

If you have more questions or need additional help please reply below and I will get back to you. Thank you for using FixYa and Good Luck. HTH

Mcculloch eager ****** no oil going to chain

The oiler pumps on Macs are the usual suspect, try this:
Oil System Plugged.
  1. Remove the clutch cover, bar, and chain, clean the bar groove, any holes and passages on the rear of the bar (both sides, consider rotating the bar) Clean the saw oiler hole and channel. Start the saw and see if it oils when revved up. If yes reassemble your saw. If no, continue with 2.
  2. Insert a blunted, hooked piece of wire through the oil filler hole and pull the hose in the oil tank out (clean or replace, difficult to determine serviceability). Work your way through the linkage cleaning and replacing any defective parts as you go. Carefully check the hoses for cracks especially at bends and connections. If equipped with an oil pump it is usually behind the clutch (clutch is a left handed thread). Please make extensive notes & some digital pictures will help during reassembly.
Build an IPL number like this:
McCulloch Manual
Illustrated Parts Lists: (IPLs) are fairly simple, on the underside of McCulloch saws is a black and yellow tag; the upper number (“Power Mac 320” 600021H) is the model, below it a serial number (11-18555). These 2 numbers are combined to create an IPL number (“Power Mac 320” IPL number = 11-600021H). The IPL number can be used to find the correct IPL for every McCulloch parts supplier I have found. If the parts supplier only list part numbers the proper IPL is the source for the part number.

If you can not find parts please repost with the IPL number and I will share my secret Mac parts source.

I have a 3516 chain saw mod22-600035-18 Mcculloch the fuel lines

I wish I could help. There are no parts available, there are no Exploded parts lists I've found a link to. These are Chinese chainsaws with the McCulloch name. They ARE Chinese chainsaws and I'm disappointed in Mac. Most mechanics won't touch them. We can provide no more help with this saw. Sorry
Lou
Poulan or Craftsman gasoline chainsaws are reasonably inexpensive, parts are available, and given a little TLC perform well.

Can't get the chain oiler to work. Using standard bar oil.

You can always put some penentrating oil in the saw oil tube by the bar, spray it in with the plastic straw attatched. Sometimes this will clean things out. As far as the tube being un attatched,,,, taking case apart is usually the remedy - kinda takes a while... :) Hope this helps you, Rick.
