SOURCE: need to replace gas line inside mcculloch chain

You need to disassemble the case to get to the fuel tank. Pull out the plug fitting and replace the internals with new factory grade parts.

SOURCE: mcculloch 3516 chain saw, does not always start.

It must have spark, fuel and compression to run. Your task is to figure out which is missing.
Sometimes electrical components quit operating once beyond a certain temperature. Does it always start cold and become tempermental when warm?
IMO most hard start problems on a chainsaw with a good fuel delivery system are flooded.
Start Procedure
Cold:

  1. Ignition on/off to on
  2. Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release
  3. Pull (close) choke, set fast idle (done when choke closed on some saws); pull starter and listen for an attempt to start. once heard (usually two pulls; no more than 4)
  4. Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release
  5. Push (open) choke pull starter until it starts. (usually first pull)
Warm:
  1. Ignition on/off to on
  2. Set compression release – optional step even if saw is equipped with a compression release
  3. Pull (close) choke, set fast idle (done when choke closed on some saws) - Don’t pull with choke closed.
  4. Push (open) choke, pull starter until it starts. (usually first pull)
The 3516 is a MTD McCulloch (Chinese). These saws are in a class by themselves. Good Luck

There is a special tool required, the part no is 530035560 available from Husqvarna/Jonsered dealers, as posted earlier this should be a dealer adjustment as the machine is new.

How to tension the chain on a mcculloch 2618cav chainsaw?

Slacken off the two 13mm nuts on the cover, leave them finger tight, clean away the saw dust from the front of the saw to expose the adjuster screw, this is in the front of the cover, it will reqiure a flat blade screw driver, screw in clockwise to tighten the chain, when adjusted correctly it should fit snuggley all the way around the bar, with a gloved hand pull the chain around the bar manualy, it should pull freely with very little resistence.

Chain came off

Loosen the bar and if there is an adjustment screw, turn it so the bar moves in the direction of the motor. Slip the chain back into its groove and turn the adjustment screw in the other direction until the chain is at the proper tension. Tighten the bar.

Can i alter oil flow to chaimac 436

Most hobby saws do not have an adjustable pump, if it is adjustable there will be an external screw close the the clutch and sprocket, would would not need to remove the bar and chain to acsess it.

How do I replace a broken chain bar locating pin/bolt on a McCulloch 540e petrol chainsaw?

The bar bolt is a stepped stun, it is screwed into the bar pad, you will have to grap it with a suitable pair of grips and undo it like a srew ( right hand thread, counter clockwise as you look at it ) you can then replace it with a new stud.

Need to locate chain & bar oiler adjustment screw for mac 3200 chain saw

Look to the lower left side of the bar (as you hold the saw normally)--there should be a screw head in the engine case there. Check the adjustment by holding the bar tip at speed near a piece of cardboard for a couple of moments--it should throw off a thin line of oil. Hope this helps!

Mcculloch 110 - loose chain - how do you adjust (tighten) the chain?

Look at the saw body from the nose of the bar, Just to the left of the bar a slotted screw head should be visible (on clutch cover). That is your tension adjustment.

Chain adjustment
  1. Make sure the chain brake is off (gloves will protest your fingers).
  2. If necessary, loosen the nut that is clamping the guide bar in place (or whatever your saw uses to hold the side plate and bar on with). We don't need these really loose - just finger tight will do.
  3. Ease the tension until the chain is obviously loose.
  4. Using one hand, hold the nose of the bar up.
  5. Now, while holding the nose up, adjust the tension so that the chain just touches the underside of the bar then just a little more.
  6. Continue holding the nose of the bar up & tighten up the clutch cover nut.

My chain came off. how do I replace

on the side of the saw is a cover usually with one hex nut, take that off and remove the cover. clean out any foreign material you find BUT be careful that the chain might be sharp and make sure the saw is unplugged. then what you want to do is loosen up the adjusting screw located on the front of the saw in the area of the cover a little, roll the chain back onto the bar and sprocket, replace cover and hold up on the tip of the bar with a rag to avoid getting cut snug bar adjustment while lifting the center of chain on top until you can just start to see bottom of teeth, then tighten cover nut, roll chain by hand should roll freely
