Next to my bench at the shop, Oregon
Waiting on parts for an FS310....Got an 036 I rebuilt that acts like it has an air leak...double checked and it doesn't. Looking at the fuel pump gasket in the carb and it was stretched...time for a kit. Have an 044 I did a complete rebuild on...having carb issues with it as well. lol And another 044 waiting to get rebuilt! Plenty to do!

It had problems and I found the root cause.
It had a small hole in the intake boot

The owner had been running it like this and it had sucked a lot of crap into the motor.
Top of the cylinder was coated with chunky burnt bits and the piston was scored front and back.
I managed to save the cylinder. Just a couple very small score marks above the exhaust port but it will live.

Perhaps his chain sharpening skills need some work too.
This is the 2nd time I have come across a chain that was beveled down on the top edge.
There is no way it would cut.
The saw came with 12 old chains and a couple old bars. All the chains are filed the same and the bars show signs of being forced so hard the chain has spread the edges of the chain slot outwards.
The chain on it is missing several teeth too.
The saw has been hot, the bearings were cooked, crank seals were hard and brittle, chain break cover is melted, rubber bar oil line was so hard it snapped like a twig,
