My buddy stopped by, knowing i like McCulloch's, brought me this very big saw. Can someone tell me what i have? I'm thinking 797 or 795?

I would say it should be numbered on the underside of the stuffer .

Could you imagine lugging that thing around all day. Every day. Like they used to?

Well you have to remember these weren't used as firewood saws .Once you get them in the cut that weight actually helps you . Hook the dogs and give it the gas, the saw does does the rest .

I pulled the carb. It was full of snot. Cleaned it. Reinstalled it. It runs and idles. I cant seem to get the carb adjusted though.

Can you get me close with the H and L screws Al? One minute it runs rich and another minute its lean. I was told it ran, the last it was used. When i got it, the L screw was out 1 1/2 turns and the H was out 1/4 turn.
