MS 192 TC problem

[Phill3003]

Wondering if one of you can lead me in the right direction. I have a 192 TC that will only run when tilted forward and not well then either. It will die like it is out of gas when tilted backward bar up. I am thinking it is the fuel line or pulse line fuel line was replaced (in theory) I will dig into it some more just looking for ideas thanks in advance.

Where to start.... lol. Could be lines, carb, intake boot(known to rip if av Mount is bad), clamshell or crank seals.

I’ve done a few of them, pretty easy once apart.

I would start at the boot. If you are tilting the saw by the handle, the boot is getting manipulated around allowing air in. Check the handle av mount by the carb too.
