aero nut,

A while back I converted a well used 38cc mucculloch for airplane use. During bench testing with a 20x10 wood prop it would run for a few minutes, then slowly die, like it was overheating? It had quite a bit of end-play, so maybe that was the problem.

I was afraid I would run into the same problem with the Power Mac 330 (32cc?) so I thought I would ask some questions. I will tear it down again this evening and post some pictures, just to be sure we are talking about the same engine.

I've become kinda partial to the homelite saws, so I may just sell this mcculloch to recoup my 20$.
