la bala Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Bit of a long shot, but thought i would give it a try. I have a McCullock 480 chainsaw circa 80ish. I need a new diaphram for the carb, the carb is a Delorto. Would be grateful for any info, havnt found anything on web yet, maybe i am clutching at straws.

Not a chance, its served me well all these years as a logging saw. If i can trace a diaphram, apart from a plug, that will be the sum total it has cost me. At 72 would you buy another chainsaw, i dont buy green bananas any more Try www.gardenhirespares.co.uk Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May have to bite the bullet and see the mower man, have been trawling the net for couple hours. Would you believe they used 2 different carbs on my model, the one i dont want, parts are available, the Dellorto nada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
