McCulloch Power Mac 6 First Run In 28 Years.

[@ProSaw70]

Quirky little saws these. Mine has been sitting in its plastic carry case untouched for too long. I’ll have to get into it.

[@christophercollins2330]

I've got one of these that needs the same repairs. I have to coat the fuel tank first. I'll replace the fuel tank wicking as well. Nice work 👍thank you

[@vovinh3968]

Thanks sir! I learn so much from your teaching.

[@mistermacgray]

You are welcome

[@jeffreyrubish347]

She's going good now.

[@JoshuaAndMom]

Got to love the Power Mac 6. These were much better made chainsaws back in the 70s. You sure can't buy quality like this anymore.

[@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648]

I LIKE TO WATCH THESE VIDEOS I AM JUST GLAD I DON'T HAVE TO FIX THEM

[@mistermacgray]

Thank you. I encourage....no challenge you to fix one. That is my message, get your hands dirty, learn something new.

[@AlBacore-bw2oo]

So, is this the correct order of the gaskets and diaphragms? Starting on the carb side and working out to the plate/fuel intake side: A) CARB SIDE 1) Gasket 2) Diaphragm B) WHITE PLASTIC CENTER PLATE 3) Gasket 4) Diaphragm C) ALUMINIUM PLATE/FUEL INTAKE SIDE If so, this might explain why my saw only runs on a prime. I believe I have 3 and 4 reversed. 😐

[@johndd8186]

Can you tell me where to get the rubber fuel connector? Thanks

[@mistermacgray]

Unfortunately not something that can be easily found. I use to have a spare one that i was going to copy and make new ones of but it's since long lost.

[@michaelszpak2247]

Bryan, What's the Mac part number for the fuel nipple. Thanks.

[@mistermacgray]

67581 is the part number

[@tedmiller1745]

Hey brother, what is the part number for the rebuild kit? Thanks!

[@mistermacgray]

Walbro carburetor kit K1- MDC. The mini mac kits look similar but are not the same.

[@tedmiller1745]

@@mistermacgray Thanks Bryan. Buddy bought one of these saws and took it apart and gave to me to get running.. I said why??? LOL. Time to see if the fuel connector is jacked and if the piston is ok then time to deal with this PITA saw. Thanks and great video...

[@mistermacgray]

@Ted Miller they are better than the mini macs, just have to find the hard to find fuel line and other than that, great saws.

[@tedmiller1745]

@@mistermacgray Yea so I see. I will see if the fuel line goes in alright but wish I was the one who disassembled to check everything out...

[@ericfuller6326]

Whats bryan grays 2nd favorite saws? I love me a big poulan just got a nice 4200

[@mistermacgray]

@ericfuller6326 anything with a 101 engine...if it's yellow and McCulloch...except the damn mini macs, trash those.

[@ericfuller6326]

@@mistermacgray lol yeah i got 1 total it was a runner never worked on it. I was gonna get either a pow A pm 6 or this 4200. Probably a good idea but still need a pm6.

[@mistermacgray]

@@ericfuller6326 pm6 or bust for a top handle mac saw.

[@redsoldierftcarson]

Is it possible to cut the flange that holds that fuel line to the wick and adapt it to a modern barrel type filter?

[@mistermacgray]

Its a possibility

[@jayjay-xz9sc]

Are you open to selling any of your saws?

[@mistermacgray]

Nope, they are staying with me and being passed onto my daughter.

[@KJChaput]

Where did you get that fuel line??? Those have been extinct for quite some time.

[@mistermacgray]

Ebay. One on there now for waaaay to much. Pretty much I stock up on parts now so when a saw comes my way I'm ready.

[@SilverAlert1]

Do you know of an aftermarket bar and chain set? I really want to get mine back 100%

[@mistermacgray]

Unfortunately I don't but these bars and chains are crazy common on ebay.

[@stevengamsby5344]

It goes gasket then the diaphragm and plastic was on them after 1974 before they where magnesium plus’s that’s a Chinese carb kit they’re always something messed up in them I’ve ordered hundreds of them my friend I’ve gotten them where they have two needles in them so good luck I haven’t finished watching it yet but I sent it to my dad and he laughed his ass off watching this lol

[@stevengamsby5344]

You have 3 pro Mac 6 my dad has 6 in a box my friend

[@tedmiller1745]

Selling?

[@MechanicShananigans]

Does this have 1/4 pitch? And if so how long is the bar? Recently picked one up with a 14 in bar and a 1/4 sprocket but no chain. Needing info on how many Drive links I need

[@mistermacgray]

I think it's a 12 inch bar (cut area) but never really measured. I was told the bar is .043 gauge but if it may be .050. I was told that stihl dealerships have this chain onnhand and can spin a loop. You can also upgrade to 3/8 chain and use a mini mac clutch drum.

[@MechanicShananigans]

@@mistermacgray thanks for the quick reply, I would like to get some 1/4 chain since the sprocket and bar are in good shape, if they were toast I wouldn't be against a 3/8 swap

[@mistermacgray]

@@MechanicShananigans there is 3/8 chain thay will fit that bar, im sure whatever fits a mini mac will fit that.

[@joshuajohnson4396]

Little bit of fussing and a hole lot of cussing.

[@mistermacgray]

All four on my shelf in my house run and make at least one cut, all they had to prove to me.
