That was great , better than watching TV , these days. I actually learned something. By the way , I'm one of a few people in this country that has experience rebuilding letourneau electric motors and old GE trolley motors. THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORTS, PHENOMENAL.

Incredible video. You're so good, I can't believe it. Gosh I like watching you work (actually, I like watching anyone else work). Never stop these videos. So wonderful. Thank you.
Great Video! What a find of a vintage chainsaw! 1956 was likely near the vary end of float bowl carburetor use for chainsaws. That saw would have been very limited in how much out of level cutting it could do. Old chainsaws with float carburetors frequently had it so the operator could rotate the carburetor 90° so the saw could be used for making horizontal felling cuts. I put 1/2" pitch Stihl chain on a gear reduction chainsaw and that old saw just sank through wood cutting out huge chips as it quickly munched down a log! It was slow cutting, but the chips it cut were huge so it balanced out to devouring the trees we put in on! It was fun to watch! These were very expensive machines when new. I use the US Labor & Statistic inflation calculator for giving current value of old prices. According to an economist that commented back to me that is not the way economist look back on past value they also considered how much lower average wealth influenced purchase decision. So lets that that Wasp 1956 chainsaw inflation calculated original price would put it at $3,000 in 2020, but it would be in effect even more expensive because average wealth was so much lower in 1956 than 2020. That makes these old saw a machine that could of only likely be purchased by major company.
...seems like the older some of get, we tend to get foggy brains ob where things are...good thing you are blessed with"Mr.Cameraman"..(obviously reviewing your vids is a great advantage!) ...right on Teryl..thank you!!🎉
This was the first video I've watched of yours Taryl and for some reason it's my favorite one. You are a very knowledgeable man and I enjoy your videos man, thanks for make em.
Thanks for reminding me why I cancelled my Dish Network subscription. This is pure entertainment at it's finest. Sometimes reminds me of the Red Green Show. Thanks Taryl.
This saw reminds me of my father's old STRUNK (i think that's how it is spelled). heavy ol saw, just lay it on top the log and the weight pulled it through the cut, hard to make the felling cut unless you were strong, some times it starved out cause it did not pressurize the fuel tank so well, I enjoyed watching this vid, some good memories the first time I ever worked with my father.
I just love the way you say, "Poe-Zi-She-own". You are awesome, Taryl. The skits are "campy", but they are growing on me. They are getting better. You do know small engines like one reads about. Nice old chainsaw.
wow reed valves ,,and new vs old gas ,,some work ,,i just finished ,doing a old machine ,,and customer ,,said what all did ya do,,,lol ,,i did everything ,,he said oh ,,not a clue i spent hours ,,making parts ,,welding etc ,,thanks for posting ,,but i did want to see it idle ,,the old motor ,,did the clunk it de clunk ,, thanks again ,,keep up the good work
The first saw i ran was my fathers 7-19 Homelite back in 1959. Then in the early 60's i cut pulpwood with a 500, 700 and 900 model Homelite's. In 1964 they came out with the XL-12, it was like a toy saw after carrying the 500 series. I logged full time up till 1989, i got hurt in a logging accident. Very good video
Taryl, I'm a new subscriber and I have spent the last two days watching your videos. You have got to be in the top 10 small engine mechanics in the country. I've really enjoyed your videos.
A man's man had to run these machines and have great deal of patience an strength 💪💪💪💪💪to cut trees all day long !! Man this carb is complicated thanks for taking the time and showing this old saw because I never seen one these before amazing job 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍no thanks I don't want operate the for a job
great old saw repair, ive had good luck with berrymans carb dip in my ultrasonic cleaner. some day l want to put 2 of those ah47 engines on a minibike,
Mustie1 please enlighten me why this chainsaw sold for $7500. Maybe a multimillionaire or billionaire collects chainsaws? $7500 would be chump change for them. Or the winning bidder knows something that we don’t know? Or maybe it’s not a legit bid?
Mustie1 Thank you for that enlightenment. It never occurred to me. That makes sense. Taryl & crew do a great job. As you know, it takes a lot of work to keep RUclips content coming each week. I don’t have the spare money to help financially. In the meantime, I do watch the commercials to the end - no skips.
Great video. One thing about the ultrasonic cleaner solution.....I have the same unit, and have tried a LOT of different solutions. Best stuff I've tried is Krud Kutter parts washer cleaner/degreaser. Safe for all metals, bio-degradeable, and works great.
Been watching A lot of your chainsaw videos lately. Awesome videos, thorough and entertaining. And gave me the confidence to work on my dads old poulan. Thanks keep it up!
That took a lot of patience and skill . I know that wasn't an easy quick fix. A lot of folks would have given up or got mad and would have thrown it into a low earth orbit...great job man👍
At least that's one good thing about equipment that blows, leaks oil all over, the bolts and screws come out easy. That point box looked mint. Even the bowl gasket was in one piece, lucky. I like the old carbs where you can actually get to ports etc.
I was hollering the jet in the bottom holds that on .IVE worked on those in the 60-70s. So many great old saws trashed for being heavy. But ill tell you a bow bar on them n they would cut effortlessly on downed trees. Firewood men loved them the wisse, the old 66 , big maccolagh saws pioneer. Fmc, David Bradley too. I think thats a tillotson carb.
Your one helluva mechanic,Mr. Dactyl! It alway"s amazes me how much smarter the old technology actually was.A tab on the point cover so you can gap the points,smart!Of course the maintainence on this old equipment is extensive.(the technology wasn"t there yet)But things were built to last!Not planned obsoleteness!
I have a old Ryobi weed whacker I bought new back in the 90s and the mix ratio on that is 32 to 1. I have been using True Fuel and other pre mixed two stroke fuel at the 50 to 1 ratio in it for years and it runs like a top.
I have two of these One is missing the air filter cover. The other one I thought for the past 40 plus years that filter cover that I have was so crude that it had to be home made. Now I see I was wrong. Yes these things are crazy heavy. I was thirteen when I got these I am 60 now. At thirteen years old my father took me to an auto parts store to get a petronics condenser that they had in stock. i cleaned the carb. and got it started. I love your videos
I still use my 1958 homelite zip saw with a 20 inch bar. I also use my 1963 homelite 51 with an 18 inch bar. They both run better than my three year old pioneer with a 20 inch bar. Oil today has a better ability to lubercate than oil in the 50's and 60's i run all my saws on synthetic 50 to 1. Never had any problems.
I have some of those wrenches 🔧 in my toolbox that were used way back in the day. And it’s kinda hard to find a bolt or nut 🔩 to use them on. But once in a while I do.
4 hours into the bidding on EBay and the price is up to 3050.00, wow......good job Taryl. Maybe you should consider putting more stuff up for bids from your videos. I’m a big fan and have learned much from your videos, love em. There’s your dinner !
I used to have an old chainsaw that looked pretty much like that one. I think mine was an old homelite it was all metal and heavy. I used it in the early 80's
Or after you dragged them two miles into the woods through two feet of snow. You get it running, idling fine, then as soon as you touch the throttle it dies and won't start again. Or is that an old Homelite issue?
A little information sharing in regards to tightening a crankshaft nut with an impact. I used to and then to my horror, I was reassembling an echo 8000 a quick shot with the impact 3/8" dewalt and snapped the crank flush with the flywheel. Considering I was almost done with the project it was extremely demoralizing. I only use an impact for loosening flywheel nuts now. From there this saw from hell was sitting on the floor and while moving a cart I hooked the cord of my bench top parts washer which dumped all over my floor then broke off 2 of the top fins of my brand new cylinder because I didn't have the top cover on it yet. It sat for a year until I got over my dumb self. I did complete the saw a few months ago and it's back to the saw I used to know. Hope this saves someone a bad day and some money.
How carburetors have changed. When we were racing go karts back in the late 50s, early 60s, the engine from power products and McCullough used diaphragm/pumper carbs.
If you want to find what areas of your ultrasonic tank has the highest ultrasonic power, float a piece of aluminum foil on top of liquid surface while ultrasonic tank is on. You will see holes develop in the aluminum foil...you will start to see a pattern of holes indicating where the highest level of ultrasonic power is concentrated. Typically the highest power will be directly above the transducers that are bonded under the tank. I used to work on these.
Great video. I inherited a huge "Maul" Chainsaw, and intend to get it going. One think I wonder about the Wasp, is if the chain always runs, or if a clutch is supposed to disengage it at idle? Thanks.
That's a good tillotson carburetor I can tell by the choke lever and the float bowl, @t power product Wait a minute that has to be a pumper isn't it? Yeah that's not the normal old tillotson, that's something different.

I will probably never own one of these saws but I learned about 10 useful things in this video. You, Sir, are a genius!
I know what it's like to get an old abandoned chain saw running again. Kinda fun. Thanks for the videos.
This saw reminds me of my father's old STRUNK (i think that's how it is spelled). heavy ol saw, just lay it on top the log and the weight pulled it through the cut, hard to make the felling cut unless you were strong, some times it starved out cause it did not pressurize the fuel tank so well, I enjoyed watching this vid, some good memories the first time I ever worked with my father.
this guy would be crazy to ever part with this beauty. really nice work
LOL, you should have a million subscribers, I love the how to video's and the comedy side show is awesome. Keep up the laughs!
awsome watching someone who acually understand points and sparks. a lot of people overlook the condensor and if i can get one always replace it
You are a great mechanic. Not just a parts replacer. Love your videos
Great video taryl it takes a special touch to get them old 2 strokes to purr just right can't wait for your next new video stay safe and God bless
I like how your skits are silly AF but then you get serious and do great how to properly repair videos. Good job brother!

More outtakes please. That would be the icing on every video.
I used to have an old chainsaw that looked pretty much like that one. I think mine was an old homelite it was all metal and heavy. I used it in the early 80's
Awesome job Taryl, great vid!
We used to call these wood shed saws- they never started when you take them to the woods- just in the wood shed.
Or after you dragged them two miles into the woods through two feet of snow. You get it running, idling fine, then as soon as you touch the throttle it dies and won't start again. Or is that an old Homelite issue?
Very good .that was awesome thinking ,And there’s your steak
Nice job ...... your really good at what ya do!!👍
A little information sharing in regards to tightening a crankshaft nut with an impact. I used to and then to my horror, I was reassembling an echo 8000 a quick shot with the impact 3/8" dewalt and snapped the crank flush with the flywheel. Considering I was almost done with the project it was extremely demoralizing. I only use an impact for loosening flywheel nuts now. From there this saw from hell was sitting on the floor and while moving a cart I hooked the cord of my bench top parts washer which dumped all over my floor then broke off 2 of the top fins of my brand new cylinder because I didn't have the top cover on it yet. It sat for a year until I got over my dumb self. I did complete the saw a few months ago and it's back to the saw I used to know. Hope this saves someone a bad day and some money.
I use to work on aircraft Instruments the brass and copper parts we would soak in dish soap and ammonia it shines it up great 👍

If you want to find what areas of your ultrasonic tank has the highest ultrasonic power, float a piece of aluminum foil on top of liquid surface while ultrasonic tank is on. You will see holes develop in the aluminum foil...you will start to see a pattern of holes indicating where the highest level of ultrasonic power is concentrated.

Great video. I inherited a huge "Maul" Chainsaw, and intend to get it going. One think I wonder about the Wasp, is if the chain always runs, or if a clutch is supposed to disengage it at idle? Thanks.
I used to have a maull
The one I had was direct drive some of the older ones were, some did not use clutches
That's a good tillotson carburetor I can tell by the choke lever and the float bowl, @t power product
Wait a minute that has to be a pumper isn't it?
Yeah that's not the normal old tillotson, that's something different.
So it's not a pumper
When the crankcase pressurizes with the down stroke of the Piston those reeds close.
my dad had an old sears that was alot like that wasp and man he cut tons of wood with it for 30 plus years!!!
