The olde girl is back. That is how it all started!

[@WoolysWorld]

[@bossdog1480]

[@WoolysWorld]

[@WoolysWorld]

✌ Yeah

[@pilkpulk8284]

First!🙆💚

[@thesmallwoodlot433]

Always a competition ah Pilk, how is it going friend!

[@richardsullivan1776]

Well sir Wooly, considering its been through three brothers and sitting in a shed. I think it started fairly well. My first saw was a Poulan Pro PP4218A made by Husqvarna as well. Very similar to that McCulloch but the powerhead was more yellow. One of the last years before they made Poulan Pro and McCulloch almost identical. I bought it in August 2014. It had a 42cc engine, 18 inch bar, 3/8'' low profile semi- chisel chain and a .050 gauge bar. I had it for three years. I sold it my best friends who modify the muffler and still runs today. I kind of wish I kept it but I don't miss it. I went to a used Husqvarna 340 with a 41cc engine and 16 inch bar. Its runs the infamous .325 pinch chain. A beefier more solid, heavy and better built powerhead. I've never looked back! That secured my place with Husqvarna and the love of orange!

[@WoolysWorld]

Very similar to my story, it's not a bad saw, I'd say it was unused for a few years before I got it back

[@robwhitecross1978]

I've just came in from the garage after tuning the carb on my 340. Sounds like your H screw needs turned anti clockwise about a quarter turn or so. The 340 needs the splined driver to adjust that screw, not sure about yours though. Love your channel!

[@WoolysWorld]

Nice one buddy, cheers

[@annacraft]

Hehe - I have a McCulloch 842 that I got used. The engine is running really well, but I have a problem with the chain tension. It just does not hold the tension on the chain for more than a few cuts. For some reason I like the saw - although the cutting performance is not that great with its 3/8H 1,3mm. Will give it a good cleaning and take a look at what might be causing the issue with the tension. Anna

[@WoolysWorld]

Nice, you might be able to replace the tension system for a normal one

[@annacraft]

@@WoolysWorld yes, I already saw that as a spare. For the price of half a chinese saw that is 😂so I first try if I can figure out something how to fix it because I would like to avoid spending a fortune on spares that are difficult to obtain for this saw. I can not see any obvious defects on the tensioning system so I will have another go at it

[@WoolysWorld]

Their just not great, I've never seen a good one, on any saw

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

My Sthil ms211 is doing the same thing.. So in turn I went out and bought a Sthil ms461.. Sending out my 211 to another KZbin channel just so he can have some more content this winter..

[@WoolysWorld]

Nice one

[@ronpatterson6420]

Start, stall, start, stall, that's why alot of those end up in sheds around the world. Lol! It's good to see it again though.

[@WoolysWorld]

Agreed, I remember it being a bit temperamental when I was using it every day

[@ronpatterson6420]

@@WoolysWorld my first saw that I ever run was a 42cc Craftsman/poulan, it was a decent cutter but it would start and stall alot when I bought my new saw I gave the old one away. I don't think did him a favor

[@WoolysWorld]

I had a Stihl Ms 181, then this and then the 435 ii, still using the 435, great saw

[@ronpatterson6420]

@@WoolysWorld the Mac probably runs better than the ms 181 lol!

[@WoolysWorld]

@@ronpatterson6420 lol, 100 times better

[@wallywally8282]

I’ve got the same saw, it’s a dog, pig of a thing! Hard to start just like you found, can’t get it tuned after I finally start it, I hate it, junk like all Husky stuff!

[@WoolysWorld]

Lol, it served it's purpose

[@fair2middlin]

2 years later I wondered why this has the *same model number as the Echo????*

[@WoolysWorld]

No idea

[@frankmoynagh7423]

Used same model saw for 4 years modified with a couple of drill holes at back of air filter also enlarged exhaust opening had no issues whatsoever so yes it's the operator maintenance that's the problem not the saw .

[@WoolysWorld]

Yeah, this has sat unused for a few year

[@gettintheresafelywithpatf2869]

Wooly I have another video up, let me know what you think!

[@WoolysWorld]

Will do

[@pilkpulk8284]

hi woolly, i hope you have a nice day. i think if the air filter is clean and an extra hole in the exhaust it would run even better.

[@thesmallwoodlot433]

Hello Pilk

[@thesmallwoodlot433]

Wooly, clean ip that saw, and tune it!, a side from that is messing with air flow, but the cain doesn’t sound like it is true in the bar or sprocket, or something is rubbing in the clutch housing!, other then that, should make a nice little pruning saw! Probably the same a the poulan 3016 here in the USA, also a Husqvarna build!

[@jackfrosty79ify]

Never seen it in USA

[@WoolysWorld]

No way, they sell them all over here

[@MrVolvoapina]

i got for free a cs360. runs the same, bad 😂

[@WoolysWorld]

Lol

[@olehemlock]

I hope you dump the old fuel out.

[@WoolysWorld]

Yes buddy
