Mc10 mag carb pop off - steve cox - 06-06-2021
hi guys i have a McCulloch Mc10 Magnesium carburetor witch has a ball seat. i have been trying to set pop off but it will not hold after popping off just slowly leeks down. i have another mag carb that works great and it likes around 10 pounds pop off it starts easy and works well the ball seat on the first seat dosent look damaged it has a 1/8 ball. if i set the pop off over 10 pounds like 15 and up it will not start. has anyone else had this problem. i can switch carbs to a tillitson and it fires up and runs good

Steve,
I have a few of those carbs, but I never run them. I use tillys.
