My dear friend. You are doing a great service for a fellow that probably would give any amount because he knows you do first rate work. Hopper you inspire so many people to step out and do things they would never have tried. I know if you can’t get it running it probably will never run. I just love watching you work on the old stuff. I appreciate everything you do and the help you bring to everyone that needs it. I know you have been having a rough time with being sick and other issues in the family and you have always kept a positive attitude and leaned on the lord for help. I cant thank you enough for giving me and others a path to follow and living by example. I love ya brother and yes you are my brother. God bless you and the family. ❤️🌲🪓👊🏻🙏🏻
I appreciate you taking the time to help somebody out with that saw! Personally I wouldn’t get you fifty cent for a semi truck full of them! Glad you’re feeling better buddy! 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🙏
You gotta let em sit for a while after filling a dry tank so it has time to soak through the wick proper. Just set the saw down and go have a soft drink and come back 15 minutrs should be plenty of time.
My grandsons were watching you with me and they both turn around to me and go why you watching Santa’s elves fixing one of my chainsaws gave that some thought cause they’re 3 and twins my response cause in the off season the elves fix adult toys so both jump up and head out to barn to check if they could catch ya fix-in gramps little saw how cool is that anyway kind of brought a tear to my eye I have prolly 4-8 of those minis and it seems that someone is making it easier to find carb kits on eBay and are new old stock cause the kits are in oem packages or packing and they look to be of mac’s quality and in good shape so check it out brother be good keep up the good work Big Jon
I now have 3 of these and I've had each one apart a few times because none of them ran when I got them. I have found that hooking the throttle linkage on the trigger just before sliding the tank and motor all the way in isn't to terrible. I never take the trigger loose at the top and I leave the linkage hooked to the carb. It's harder to get apart than it is to get back together that way, but it's easer than the way you did it and eliminates a couple of steps. The first few times I took one of these things apart I made up some new cuss words and I have my newest one, to me, on the bench right now. Carburetor problems and I have been able to get the carb kits off of Ebay. I know your good and that's why I checked in to see If I could pick up a few tricks, Thanks for all I've learned from you in the past and good luck with gettin' her going. Chip, from Delaware
on those kits..the Walbro version of that carb and the Zama versions are very similar...however, the kits for the Walbro versions seem to be easier to find than the kits for the Zama version for some reason..maybe that kit you had was for the Walbro carb, and the carb you had was a Zama?..I believe the Walbro version is an MDC, and the Zama version is an M-7, I think...
I know the trend is that these aren't worth much, however if your climbing in a tree all you want is small light and run. These pull the chain fine, for the cost a great first saw.
I was rooting for you the whole time. Bet you are spewing that you didn't record getting the throttle connected. I've just grabbed one of these off the side of the road. I'm hoping it's just fuel and it's good to go. Watching that start to finish was hard, but maybe it was worth it. Thank you for your informed advice 👍
If you put engine and all its hoses, wires and linkage on first, then fuel tank and cover on last, it will make the job so much easier. These are my favorite Macs to work on because they are the “problem Child” of the entire line.
Worked on one of these some years ago. Took awhile to get it together. When I finally got it to run I found it had excessive crankcase axial end play, so much that the chain drive links clashed with the bar groove. Didn't know if you could fix that so i binned it. Was complete with case and papers too. One thing I learned, check the crank first thing, right after eyeballing the exhaust side of the piston.🤔👍
You spent 59 more minutes on one of these than I would. I've rebuilt the carb on mine and got lucky the first time but at the rate it takes a shop to spend even an hour on one exceeds the value of what one is worth and why dealers would teams these and not work on them. Biggest pain was the carbs and getting to them. You can bench run it out of its shell with a separate fuel tank to fine tune the carb before tossing back in its shell.
I have a 120 that would start but wouldn't stay running. Looked like gas hose was collapsing. I learned all about taking the dang thing apart and then trying to get carb parts.
I have one of these and I’ve rebuilt the carb and tried adjusting the screws on the carb all types of ways. It will run but only for a couple seconds and then shuts off again. I took it all apart and cleaned everything including the carb. Fuel line seems to be fine and the filter in the gas tank lets out plenty of fuel. Added new fuel and everything but it won’t idle. Pretty much shuts off almost as soon as I release the throttle. Sometimes will stay running for a few seconds after letting go but ends up dying eventually. Any ideas what I should do to get it working again?
I think i have this model, any chance you could share what 2 stroke mix ratio you use for it ? Also, i don't have that extra movable bar ? Do i need it, and where can i get one if so ?
@@bellhoppersaws The guy at the mower shop says it doesn't have the chain brake handle/bar. It's quite an old unit. 1960's or earlier i presume Looks the same as the one in this video, but all metal casing and no chain bar/brake but has eager beaver sticker on the side and 12" McCulloch painted on the blade
@@bellhoppersaws I wish i could share with you a picture or two, there's no spot for the chain brake to be connected to, it's just not there :( unless i completely missed it. Let me make a quick video of it. and share
Does anyone know the exceptiable compression for a Mac 110? I measured 100psi on mine. Getting spark (seen on a spark tester). Added a little gas (40:1 mix) to cylinder... And it still will not start. Waiting on a carb rebuilt kit. Also, this thing has points... as I understood, I set the point gap to .018. Before I started working on this... it did run for about 10 seconds. Then could not restart it... Any advice would be great...
Oooh you much being filling ok ( since your messing with that ) but at least it will bring you vocabulary up-to-date by the time you get finished with it 😠😡🤬 but at least it looks clean 🤔🤔🤔 I had a heard of them but I gave them all away except one that I got from a friend who bought it new with the case . It runs but it's a shelf Queen. I hate the fuel wick thing on that thang . If I was close I'll fix you up with a kit , I have a fistful of them . I got them from eBay . Believe it or not but I have started them without putting them in the case to see if they would run , it's hard to do but it can be done as long as the tank don't fall of while running but I didn't let them run long . Most all of them I had I got for free , I wouldn't buy one of those mini , I do like the Power Mac 6 much better as long as the fuel line ain't bad , hard to find a fuel line for those .
..am I the only one who owns several sets of high-dollar screwdrivers, but winds up using the screwdriver end of screnches to work on everything, simply because that's what happens to be laying there and within easy reach?...I doubt it...😁
..No, these saws aren't really that hard to take apart and put back together..I don't really mind that...but it's when you have to take the same saw apart and put it back together 30 times...🥵😡..
Will it Run?🤣 When Bellhopper gets into it, she’s gonna run, no doubt👍🏻
Thanks for showing us the things you go through to fix a saw

Bellhopper your videos are very informative thanks for your knowledge !!!!!!!!!!!!
The mini mac I love get a couple those some day. That was my first chainsaw when I was 6.
Hold ur finger on the plug works first time,everytime to check spark lmao I just got one of these saws
back when they came out and work on these thing, i can't tell you how many of these saws are in the tree line, they fly good,
Great video today ,I have one I need to put back together ! I just need to figure out what I did with the back handle !!!
Your patience amazes me.
Thats a nice mac! I don't care how many videos i want to see it all Hopper. Praying for you and yours.❤❤❤

My grandsons were watching you with me and they both turn around to me and go why you watching Santa’s elves fixing one of my chainsaws gave that some thought cause they’re 3 and twins my response cause in the off season the elves fix adult toys so both jump up and head out to barn to check if they could catch ya fix-in gramps little saw how cool is that anyway kind of brought a tear to my eye
I have prolly 4-8 of those minis and it seems that someone is making it easier to find carb kits on eBay and are new old stock cause the kits are in oem packages or packing and they look to be of mac’s quality and in good shape so check it out brother be good keep up the good work

Dang nice lookn lil saw i had a mini mac15 several yr ago parts availability was an issue then wit em.
They are a pain to work on but man they are fun to run💪
Yes Sir!

I believe the metal disk diaphragm is for the walbro, the one on this saw looks to be a zama with the plastic
Your customer had bought a 10 dollar paper weight 🙄 Some things are not worth fixing. I admire your patience.
Is it the Zama carb or eager beaver carb kit.
Thanks for the video. What would be the best ratio of gas to oil for this saw? 40;1 , 50:1 or ...?
You spent 59 more minutes on one of these than I would. I've rebuilt the carb on mine and got lucky the first time but at the rate it takes a shop to spend even an hour on one exceeds the value of what one is worth and why dealers would teams these and not work on them.

Carb kits on ebay work nicely. I just got a kit for my Mac 130 with fuel line. Hope this helps
Is there any way set up a tank outside the saw and start with a drill. Mean while many Hrs later and few word of camera we have a saw.lol
You know where i can get a oiler barrel and a plug wire for one of these?

I run 32:1in all mine buddy what bar is it your wondering about

I really like all kobalt 24v tools except the impact driver..
Do you do any muffler mods for husqvarna 572 ?
If so do you have a website or Facebook I can pm you at for price
Yes i do its usually around 50.00 its easier to do with the saw tho so i know its in there right
Does anyone know the exceptiable compression for a Mac 110?

Unnecessary is the right word to get to that carb. You ask me, it's a throw away saw after it stops cutting wood.
Easy saw to work on i can take apart in 20 minutes and less taking piston out
Thats a zama carb ur kit is for a mdc carb they had 2 diff carbs old saws had the mdc, 110 is newer edition
