Felixx's little chainsaw

So  few years ago I acquired a little chain saw. It was seized I was told.

 

Perhaps a McCulloch mini mac 3 or 6

Very similar to this one.

It sat in my shed after I poured ATF/acetone mix in the spark plug  hole and left it after it was still siezed

There it stayed until yesterday when it fell off the shelf.  And its handle broke.

I stripped it down and found its clutch had smashed and it wasnt siezed.

I put fresh fuel and a dash of ether in the carb and it ran for 10 sec

Anyway then the pull start jammed and the only way to access it was by removing the motor.

So I have stripped it down.

I epoxied the handle together too 

Fingers crossed it holds

 

However I cannot figure out how to connect the throttle linkage while the engine is in place. And cannot get the engine in place with the linkage connected
