OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Chainsaws and Concrete Cutters McCulloch Chainsaws MiniMac35 Diagram

I have a McCullough Mini Mac 35 which was given to me about 15 years ago. Tried to start it up for first time today. No spark. I am looking for a parts list/diagram so I can disassemble and clean and hopefully diagnose why there is no spark.

Any suggestions or parts lists or diagrams would be appreciated.

Thanks for the diagram of my MiniMac35. Helped a lot. Before disassembling, I was able to get it to fire (popped but didn't run) when I sprayed a little ether on it. I was able to get the saw apart. Cleaned the carb. Diaphram (pump) appeared soft/flexible. The gas filter appeared very gummed up, but seemed still porous. Couldn't pull the filter out of gas tank, worried I wouldn't get it back in. Installed a new spark plug. Set the hi and lo idle per instructions I saw on this site. After reassembling, filled it with fresh gas and tried to start it. It fired once for a second, then couldn't get it to fire again. Has great compression. I think it's a carb problem and not a condensor problem since it did fire (pop)...albeit one time.

I wouldn't mind replacing the gas filter if I could find one. Also wouldn't mind rebuilding the carb but not sure where to find a rebuild kit or they're even available.

I don't want to sink much into this since it could cost more to fix than buying a new one.

Do you know if rebuild kits/fuel filters are available? Approximate costs?

Other idea's on what could be wrong?

mjm0103,
You should be able to get a carby kit from your lacal mower shop just take the carby so that they can supply the correct kit.

As to the fuel filter I would leave it for now because it will be hard to get.
