👍Excellent video! 👍One of the best ones so far on the Tech side. One of the tips Wayngo taught me, in the bush in my younger years, was to take clean business card, not glossy and wipe the point clean after filing and or use electrical contact cleaner on them to make sure all the dust is out of the contacts from filing. Air works when your in the shop👍
"I think everyone was jonesin a bit". Well, yeah Bellhopper, we are jonesin! That's the sort of stuff that happens, when you are so irresistible, people can't get enough of ya! Lol! I mean, not that I've ever had that problem, but then again, I'm not "The Bellhopper" either! Yet another good video fella! Have a great week my friend!
I actually enjoy points I learned about Tdc and rota bugs on a 62 Chevy 283 trouble is now thay don't make good replacement points anymore guess it's a lost art try to keep your old ones working as long as you can half burn ones last longer than brand new ones now ,keep the videos coming good stuff
Friends don't forget to hit that like button please!!! Thanks buddy. Told ya I needed my bellhopper fix. Seems I wasnt the only one. Lol. Keep em rollin buddy. Great job.
@@bellhoppersaws ill hopefully be there saturday buddy. The community will be fine when you get to it. We're not going anywhere. You have a lot on your plate right now. Remember your priorities. Love ya buddy. Let me know if you need anything.
Finally a guide that gives us an idea on what the hell is going on with points ignition coil!! Thx! Does this apply to other saws as well? im not talking about the space between contacts but where to set the piston in order to start the adjustments.
All ways wondered how that worked. I probably won't need to advance or retard a saw but I might need to advance myself since I'm real slow at saw repair. Hope the live feed becomes a regular thing. Keep 'em coming.
thanks man, just found one of tese in my barn, took it a part to rebuild it. Had no idea how to set the points---didn't even know they were called points...though I have heard that term before
Thank you very much! That is super helpful! Is that gap the same for most models? Or would each saw be different. Growing up, the gap was always the thickness of a cigarette package! LOL! Is that even close? Love the videos too Mr Bell! Have a great day
Hi bell hopper!! It’s your buddy Walt. I’m a fan of yours and Buckin! Question, why would my pro mac10-10 come to a dead stop when I hit the break? Any idea? Thanks
After watching you for awhile now I’ve never seen this video.. but I’m putting my sp81 back together now & have a start issue so went looking for a video exactly like this one.. and would you know my fav Mac man Bellhopper actually made a video with all the info I need to adjust my points & keep my old saw original 👍👍👍👍
I just finished the setting of the points but now I have a air leak .. I hope I did t damage the seals any putting them in & I used permatex Motoseal on the case. Where the biggest chance for a air leak ? I have a NOS Intake but didnt add any sealant to it.. do you pressure ,vac test to find your air leaks ?
Any tips on fixing a sheared flywheel key? I have a 1971 10-10A that sheared the key and enlarged the keyway slightly on the crankshaft. Any way to fix that or is the crankshaft toast? I tried using a good key from another 10-10 I have and it's sits in the slot pretty loose..
@@bellhoppersaws That's what I'm probably gonna end up doing. Thanks for your input! And also thanks for making these videos on repair/maintenance stuff like this. It's hard to find content like this, especially specifically relating to old McCulloch saws. Keep up the good work!
Yes silky i usually put the module in place of the condensir. On the sp81 vid i show how to put it under the flywheel that is were the condensir was when i removed the points
Boy I tried this, I had weak spark. Put in a new plug, still weak spark. Opened it up and found the points to be very dirty. I did not adjust the points, I did open them up and clean them with a cheap nail file from the wife's stockpile. Now no spark. Very sad! I don't know what I did wrong but the thing is deader than a door nail.
I got this thing running, I needed to use 220 grit sand paper, wash the points off with some 91% alcohol, set the gap which was way too large, so large it wouldn't close properly, then reassemble to 0.015" points gap and set the armature gap to 0.006". Vroom vroom.
dont ever stop doin this , long live the Bellhopper
Thank you buddy love you my friend
The first channel I subscribed to was Buckins..then iron horse..bayou country..and now Bellhopper..all great content..I love it
Thanks Bell Hopper! Great demonstration of the work on the points. I learn every time I watch your stuff.

Hey buddy we are going to try and see were it goes
Great video hope you and the family had a great weekend
Yes sir buddy we did hope ypu had a great weekend as well
Thank you so much that was very helpfull
That was a great teaching. Bellhopper. That was the condenser right below the points housing yes?
Yes sir thats correct
thanks man, just found one of tese in my barn, took it a part to rebuild it. Had no idea how to set the points---didn't even know they were called points...though I have heard that term before
Nice video..good stuff to know
Oh hAle yeah!!!
Ignition mod, even for firewood use👍😁!!
Thanks Hopper!
In your opinion does the points and condenser on them old saw’s go bad that often?
Thank you very much! That is super helpful! Is that gap the same for most models? Or would each saw be different. Growing up, the gap was always the thickness of a cigarette package! LOL! Is that even close? Love the videos too Mr Bell! Have a great day
Most of the saws ive done were .018 to .020 we always used a match book when i was a youngen they are usually .013
Mr bell 😆 Cheers.👍 love it.

Great video! These are good skills to know.

Hey buddy i just seen this comment if it stall with the brake put on it probally in the clutch bearing something is sticking

If you get it in and torque it it will probally stay but i would probally swap out the crank if it was me buddy

@@superhot340 thank you buddy im glad to help all i can we got more vids coming soon on differnt stuff thankyou for watching
If you use one of them modules does that do away with the condenser as well?
Yes silky i usually put the module in place of the condensir. On the sp81 vid i show how to put it under the flywheel that is were the condensir was when i removed the points
@@bellhoppersaws ok. Got it. Thanks, bud.
@@munched55 no problem buddy
Good video!!!!!!!!!!
Lord by the time you get done yappin and got to the points electronic ignition has been invented..: lol I’m just playing brother great video thank you
Lol thats what i was stalling for you welcome 🤣🤣🤣
Bravo man, great video
On my husky 180s I could turn the points plate, it has slotted mounting holes. I guess that is for advancing or retarding the timing.
Yes sir that wud do it these are not at all lol they bolt thru that plastic cup straight to the block
does anyone know how to get in contact with this man?
👍✊
