The 36" on the all yellow 125 is basically the same style Windsor bar as shown with the McCulloch brand on it except it's a Stihl mount .

That one is I think 105 drivers of .404 .The 36" Mcculloch bar I also have uses 109 drivers but both are listed as 36" bars .

The 48" hard nose on the "black beauty"  is 143 drivers yet oddly enough that driver count is what they call a 50" bar in Stihl mount size .So what I'm saying is they all have some degree of variation as to how they determine bar length .

I would be interested in a chart of the different style mounts.  I have several bars that it would be helpfull to identify.

The recoil on the 125 is the same as what other saws?  I have a 250 that looks to have the same recoil as my 125 but I really don't want to start taking parts off a nice saw.

Unless you break the starter there isn't much that can go wrong with it other than the spring .Even if so often you just heat the end and bend a new hook on it .

I'm certain a 250 recoil will work and suspect just about any left start reed valve like the 300 etc .

It has a grove worn thru where the pull rope rubs.  Never seen anything like it before.

What is the trick to getting the recoil apart so I can fix the spring?  I'm pretty sure it is a simple job or maybe a trick to it?

I got it apart, just needed a better grip.

I've done enough dinging with this 125 to cut a little wood today ;D.  I set it down to move the log I was cutting and the saw died.  Went to restart it and the recoil spring let go >:(.  What does the spring end look like to keep it in place?
