Steve, your humility in asking for help is why you got your saw working! Good job man. I swear I thought you knew it all. This made me respect you even more than I already did!
My Dad told me over 70 yrs ago, "never be afraid to ask questions, if you don't know something" Nine times out of ten you will get your answer,and gain knowledge. and I've never forgotten that , and your video proved that out again!. great video and thanks for showing it and sharing it.
I've worked on my own lawn equipment and learned a lot from my dad. God bless his soul. If he were here today he'd watch these videos too. He never took a lawnmower or chainsaw to a shop. He did his own work. We'd go get the parts we needed and went to work. Hope the younger generation is watching these videos and learning something from them.
That's great. Glad you got it running. It's great that a little help from your audience did the trick. There's no shame in admitting you can't fix something because for everything you can't fix there's about a 100 things you did fix.
YES!!! I’m so happy that my suggestion was the solution! That 50% acetone shouldn’t sit in there too much longer, though. I’d flow a bit of kerosene through when you get the chance soon, and then regular bar and chain oil after that! The feeling of fixing something you’ve had for a long time is priceless.
I love your videos. I'm self-taught in many things, but with many videos like yours and others on UA-cam, I'm always learning something new. The best lesson I ever learned in school was in the fifth grade from the best teacher I ever had. He stood before the class and told us "When you graduate from high school or college, you are not out of school. Life is a school and you must never stop learning!" That was a lesson I'll never forget and it worked well for me ever since. Of all the things I've learned, my best skill is fixing things and sometimes things that are considered to be unfixable. That's why I got the nickname 'wizard'.
Congratulations Steve!! Like John B. said....it's very rewarding to get a piece of equipment brought back to life! YOU...deserve to have it working! You have no doubt helped thousands of followers with their own equipment and provide an invaluable resource to anyone willing to learn. Thanks again for sharing.
Steve, what I like best about your videos is that you get to the point without needing 20 minutes of BS to getting to 5 minutes of information. Ever since I found your channel (youtube didn't "recommend it") it's the first place I look when I have a problem or question on a small engine. Are you ever going to run out of problems to solve? I genuinely hope not.
That thing is a cutting beast! Nothing better than getting something going that has been sitting around for years. It's cool that you have this huge resource to tap into if you need help.
Congratulations Steve! Putting it out there was a really GOOD idea. I just love that! Next time you do your beer tasting segment, you got to open a symbolic second beer honor of your viewers. Just open it and place it on your venerable workbench in honor of all of those you view! Yeah! May the wood you cut with that John Deere warm the hearts and toes of many who sit around your fires!
Steve I’ve seen most of your video’s and I hate that some have said such bad things in the comments. In my opinion the everyday tech I think your great and by god you have saved me several times thank you for your knowledge.
I like the fact that many of the people that you have helped with your videos, were able to return the favor and help you out. Knowledge is best when shared. Great work guys! (or girls)
That's great that you were able to fix the oiling system on that saw, great work! Sounds like it must've had quite a clog by the loud pop you heard, glad it's working now!
Steve, I have a John Deere 50V and I love it! I've had it since the 70's. Currently not won't start but suspect a fuel filter and fuel line will resolve the problem. Your video have inspired me to get off the dime and get it back in working order. Keep those videos coming!
No question in my mind that you would have it up and oiling. Just a matter of when!!! I am glad to see you cutting wood with it all the same! I will say this however, you guys up north must not have to deal with the 'safety' chain crap that us folks down south have to deal with! Your saw went through that piece of wood like a hot knife through butter!!! Good work brother!!!
I have had a 70v John Deere for 35 years & I still use it. Its a beast of a saw because it never causes any problems just a carburetor kit and 3 or 4 bars plus many chains. live in central Minnesota it outlasted my uncles new Steal chainsaw. Yes we burn wood still enjoy cutting wood.
Stevie , I, told you so, have some patience, and don't give up, am glad that you succeeded, because, i, myself learn something, new, this chain saw, of yours cuts great, Stevie.
Steve I'm a big fan and watch all of your videos. I sent an email a while back and dont think you got it. But you have helped me a lot to be a more useful employee and I cant thank you enough for what you do. Cheers
Congrats on the win Steve!! That's a very nice old JD saw...they just don't make em like that anymore! Nice to see you, and Buckin, are still keeping the old steel, or magnesium, alive! I know it's early in the morning, but after four years of trying to fix that saw, I'd be very tempted to just cracked that beer open!!!!!!
cool that it runs for you! The 50/50 mix works great and I have been using it since the 70's, it will work on vehicles filling up the cylinders and HAVING PATIENCE!
Well done, Stevo! I was quite shocked at how complicated that Oiler was! Why don't they keep things simple? Mind you! I know nothing about Engines at all, but since I found your Videos, I've learned a few things? Thanks, Steve!
That is so awesome, and what a great feeling it is to fix the unfixable. Great job man. When I saw that parts diagram in the last video, you could only feel clueless as to which of the 3 dozen discontinued parts it could have been. Cheers to the guy who said BLOW IT!
hey Steve , my sister's brother has a 50 V that had the same issue , so i did exactly what u did right down to the rubber grommet on the oil tank , success dude ! other then the diesel fuel shower , lol so now its on ebay starting at 99.99 cnd thanks brother from another mother and youtubers
Steve, love the videos. You're an excellent instructor/teacher. One request, when adjusting the carburetor on small engines explain why you adjust the setting from highest rpm to back out until it just slows down. BECAUSE: ".............. ". Because, making the setting rich protects your motor during full throttle response,? Because this setting positions the throttle for quicker response?.You do a great job of telling what you are doing, not everyone understands why you're using those settings. Keep it up!!! Great job👍
Glad to see I am not the only one that talks to his tool's.. I think you should have a competition to give the old saw a name ???? I think stroking it is going a bit too far though Steve Have you spoken to your Doctor about it ???????
Fantastic video so happy people had an idea great stuff I love seeing these old vintage chainsaws just do their thing Steve you're the best I could watch you all day
Enjoy your videos a bunch, always learn something. You gave me the confidence to DIY my old ECKO edger. Spent a few bucks on a carb kit and 15 minutes later the edger was running like new. Thank you Steve.
MYTH BUSTER‼️ See it don't take much to make an old man happy, @ almost 60 I speak from experience. Nice to see a happy Steve. 👍👍👍👍 That enough thumbs up for ya Steve❓ Best of luck 😜
Gee, am I happy for you Steve. It's wonderful to get all those comments to help you out. And you FINALLY did it...or WE finally did it..!(M.G.,Qc, Canada)
Hay Steve on the newer saws just start them up and let them run while putting a little compressed air into the oil system. Like you said newer saws will not work like the old faithful but with it running and compressed air I have cleared some up in the past. Keep on cutting!
It's great to see you so genuinely happy - and I can see that you really are! Hey, since I've never seen you outside before, you mentioned your PPE. Have you ever done a video on that? I only use a chainsaw a few times a year but I recognize that it can be a dangerous sucker. I don't want to spend a fortune on protective clothing, but what should I own, at minimum? Thanks Steve!
God I love it when your so happy. You got help from all of your friends and after you got it going you took er out to the ole test stand started er, ran er, cut a couple of chunks off, shut er off lifted your safety shield and with a Great BIG GRIN said "She's a Beauty Aaaaa"! And that's the best part of it!
Glad it worked for you. BTW you can do that with a newer saw but it's a little more complicated to do and requires 2 people (or 1 person who has a complete disregard for safety and a zip tie). What you have to do is have one person rev the saw to get the pump moving while the other mechanic pressurize the tank. We do it to sthil and echo saws daily in the shop.

Steve, your humility in asking for help is why you got your saw working! Good job man. I swear I thought you knew it all. This made me respect you even more than I already did!
Thank You my friend....
Nothing better than the feeling of fixing something you thought was a write off.
Sometimes its better to wait and be patient..the repair angels cant be hovering over us 24/7
I agree. The feeling is very ecstatic.
I don't think I have ever seen you this happy. Enjoy the moment.
Right on ....
My Dad told me over 70 yrs ago, "never be afraid to ask questions, if you don't know something" Nine times out of ten you will get your answer,and gain knowledge. and I've never forgotten that , and your video proved that out again!. great video and thanks for showing it and sharing it.
Right on Buddy....
I just bought my husband this older model - he'll need to watch this video to see how to make it run! thanks for sharing
Good luck!
I've worked on my own lawn equipment and learned a lot from my dad. God bless his soul. If he were here today he'd watch these videos too. He never took a lawnmower or chainsaw to a shop.

Thanks for giving us the follow up on the earlier video. I'm happy for you. In this vale of sorrow and tears, we need whatever triumphs we can muster.

My dad had the same saw you have, he cut wood for years with it they are good saws.
Good to see it worked, Steve. I think your brother was watching over you smiling.

No question in my mind that you would have it up and oiling. Just a matter of when!!! I am glad to see you cutting wood with it all the same! I will say this however, you guys up north must not have to deal with the 'safety' chain crap that us folks down south have to deal with! Your saw went through that piece of wood like a hot knife through butter!!! Good work brother!!!
Congratulations buddy! I know that is a satisfying feeling you get when everything finally comes together!

Excellent work Steve-O!!!!!!!!!! A sharp chain and that saw is badass brother! I knew if you put your mind to it you'd get 'er going!♥
Thank You...
I remember that recipe! Some of us were trying to name Mike's recipe. I still thank Mike for sharing. It works!
There is a recipe that’s been out there for years and was thought by Ed who worked for Ruger Firearms
His was used for cleaning firearm barrels and consisted of equal parts of transmission oil, kerosene, acetone, and mineral spirits. Works great.
Totally got the fizz seeing that saw running congrats!
Thank You...
I never had any doubt, I knew you could do it. 100%!
Great lesson for all of us..
Gee, am I happy for you Steve. It's wonderful to get all those comments to help you out. And you FINALLY did it...or WE finally did it..!(M.G.,Qc, Canada)
Right on Buddy...
Glad to see ya got it Steve . And our advise helped that air trick works good with old saws
Right on Brotha..
How Slick is that !......thanks Steve
Way to go,fixing the JD saw (ECHO) oiling problem.
Can you please make a video that shows us how to tune up a STIHL 4-mix carb?
Enjoyed this one a lot....and "it's 5 o'clock somewhere"
That's a really nice sounding chainsaw!
Hay Steve on the newer saws just start them up and let them run while putting a little compressed air into the oil system. Like you said newer saws will not work like the old faithful but with it running and compressed air I have cleared some up in the past. Keep on cutting!
So glad to see you enjoy that saw and after it sitting there mocking you for years! Love the vids. Keep em comin.
Cuts like a hot knife threw butter.... Awesome man.
The power of internet/UA-cam, some of the viewers who contributed to this surgery are miles from you..!! As always, enjoy your wonderful clips.
Great video Steve. Thank you!
You're Welcome...
Thats a great feeling when you fix a problem , especilly when this problem been around for a long time.
That was a case of beer on that problem .
Hi Steve. I have the brother to your saw. I broke the thumb Oiler off but it’s still a great running saw. Thank you great video. 🍺🍺
Great team effort Steve. "Three Thumbs Up"!
Right on Vinny...
Im happy that hour happy Steve..
Cool Deal ! Congrats Steve !
Your smile is sayings it all.
That's a beautiful saw, unusual and kinda vintage, i would be glad to have it!
So glad for you!
Awesome buddy. Nothing like using some old steel.
Great how this worked out with everyone contributing.
Right on Jeff...
That's a massive mule saw and a monkey 🐻🦁 love it ❤️❤️ super nice 👍👍👍
Great job

Great video Steve.
That’s awesome that the saw is fixed and working properly now.
I’m going to try that atf/acetone mix.
Please keep the videos coming
Right on George....
Well im glad it worked out for you steve .im surprised you didn't film it though.
One of the best saws I ever owned. Great tips
I feel you happy moment. I’ve had a few. 👍
It's great to see you so genuinely happy - and I can see that you really are! Hey, since I've never seen you outside before, you mentioned your PPE. Have you ever done a video on that? I only use a chainsaw a few times a year but I recognize that it can be a dangerous sucker. I don't want to spend a fortune on protective clothing, but what should I own, at minimum? Thanks Steve!
It just goes to show we’re never to old to learn a new trick or try a different Beer 🍺
Woohoo. Love your videos. I was waiting for the conclusion and it was great.
Thank You...
You have inspired me to tear down my 30 year old McCullouch! :D Nice work!
Steve, I & we are very happy for you, that just shows you & us all, that we sometimes have to Think Outside the Box, Again very happy for YOU...!
Thank You...
Congrats sir, you really deserve it
Thank You...
God I love it when your so happy. You got help from all of your friends and after you got it going you took er out to the ole test stand started er, ran er, cut a couple of chunks off, shut er off lifted your safety shield and with a Great BIG GRIN said
"She's a Beauty Aaaaa"! And that's the best part of it!
Thanks Curto...
Glad it worked for you. BTW you can do that with a newer saw but it's a little more complicated to do and requires 2 people (or 1 person who has a complete disregard for safety and a zip tie). What you have to do is have one person rev the saw to get the pump moving while the other mechanic pressurize the tank. We do it to sthil and echo saws daily in the shop. Happy cutting
