026 problem

[Mkinslow]

Just rebuilt this saw today. New crank seals and rebuilt carburetor. Passed pressure and vac test idles great just want accelerate. Trying too get video up

 

[Mkinslow]

Crap now I’m gonna need help posting a video from YouTube

Did you pressure check the carb? Where is you low speed screw at? 1turn from a lightly seated position?

 

[jmester]

Copy and paste the link of your video in the message box and it should work that is how I have done them. But I may have forgotten.

Try it without an air filter

I didn’t pressure check the carb. Yes both H&L are out One turn each from lightly seated. It idles fine but when I hit the trigger it just keeps bogging. It’ll keep running if you play with the trigger after it bogs. I’ve got a short video but I can get it to upload

I did that also and it keeps spitting fuel back on my hand

 

[jmester]

How did you set the metering lever?

Check the flywheel key.

I’ll check it again tomorrow

 

[Mkinslow]

Check the flywheel key.

I’ll check that again tomorrow also but it seemed fine this afternoon when I put it back together and made sure it was lined up

 

[Mastermind]

Chain brake ain't on is it?

 

[Mkinslow]

Chain brake ain't on is it?

No sir it isn’t

 

[Mastermind]

No sir it isn’t

I did that once when I first started messing with saws.

 

[Mkinslow]

Lol I’ve done it before also. I’m thinking I need to double check and go through the carb again

screw the L out a tad more. it will idle but fall on its face if lean.

What is the extent of the mods/repairs you made on the saw?

Spark screen clean?

Change plug?

Check piston and squish?

Confirm fly key OK?

Which piston size and cylinder?

If all above OK, and you tried without filter, I’d swap the carb out. It sounds bad.

It’s an all stock saw so far. I got the saw in some trading for other work I did on an 066. It has sat for bout 3 months before I got around to changing the crank seals and doing the carb yesterday. I’ll be messing with it again later this morning after I get back from town and will report back.
