Now back to the 076 super

The easy way to check for a leaking welch plug is to pull the metering diaphragm, and the low side adjustment screw, then stick the straw of a can of carb cleaner in the low side adjustment hole, and give it a squirt. Watch for backsplash, and don't get any in your eyes. If the welch plug is not sealed, you'll see carb cleaner coming out around it.

Now that's the simple no cost involved testing I like to know about!

Thanks!

I found a leaking welch plug in a 200t carb.....and the correct kit didn't have the right plug. That sucks. I sealed it with nail polish. Checking for leaking welch plugs is easy to do, and should be a habit on a carb rebuild. Who checks them, and what is your method?

At least it needed something you had.

Just got one of those "I want free advise" calls. Fella wanted to know if it was worth the trouble to upgrade to a bigger bore. He has a Poulan Pro 40cc and wanted to go to 42cc. It was a very short call.

I almost always am happy to give free advise. It helps people out, and they talk. Most aren't willing to do the work anyways and I end up with the work. Even if I don't, when someone they know needs help and my name is thrown out there I get work that way.
Besides, y'all have given me so much free advise I'll never be able to pay it forward.

Its the free advise calls that never end, taking up WAY too much time, that turns you off to them.

The mystery saw in the 4th box of course!

Opened up the 268 carb.
Metering lever was really high and I think the diaphragm was not hooked to it.

Adjusted to where it should be and off she went.

IT'S ALIVE

Holy crap! I was right??? Never happens! Sweet!

husky top cover looks nice!!, box number three is your first builder for a quick flip, 051 is a nice anchor but will make a good milling saw even if they aren't strong resellers
gotta see box 4

 

[ajschainsaws]

Box 4 is a keeper been waiting for this one for ages , done a good trade all from Aus
