Picked up a Blitz 501 chainsaw this morning not going of course
It seemed to be starving for fuel, once i stripped the carby i found the problem, it was full of muck.
It runs ok now, these saw are made by "Oleo Mac", good quality
Italian saws.




Now this one is alive again i had better get back to the Snapper

hi gmax

i cant belive all that muck in the carby and it just needed a clean to get going good job - daniel.

Hi daniel,
The air filter was not seated properly which allowed all the muck
to get past the air filter.
When i had the carby off i had a look at the piston & barrel,it all looks good luckily.

Hi gmax,
YOu got lucky with that one then hey im shocked where did you pick it up?

Hey gmax,
Great pics mate, good to see she's now going again, and what a steal at that price, eh!! and , of course, just in time for winter!! Kindest Regards, Darryl

to more Beers!!

Hi daniel, & Darryl,
I bought from ebay, it was advertised as not going & pickup only,
Darryl,i don't want to use it for firewood, i have another 3 saws for that.
I just want to add it to my Italian saw collection, but its nice
to have it running. My wife thinks I'm mad, but i let her buy
a new sewing machine, so she's happy.

Hi gmax awesome saw, i'm also collecting oleo mac saws and have the same model blitz 501. Mine has a dodgy coil tho and is proving a nightmare to locate one. would love to see some of your other oleo macs
