Our McCulloch needed some parts for the recoil starter, and in the meantime of looking for spares I found an Echo CS-60s saw that needed a little love.
The carb needed a rebuild, there was a hole punched in the magnesium fuel tank (bottom of the crank case casting...) but I got it for $29 and felt like making it go.
A handful of brass and stainless washers and a nut/bolt along with some gas tank repair epoxy putty and the tank's fixed, a rebuild kit took care of the carb.
It runs great!
One issue I'm seeing is the auto oiler - short of the adjusting screw in the airbox, does anyone here have any suggestions on getting the oiling system running?
What's the typical failure part or mode of failure in the oiling system?
Cheers
