Look at that another fine piece of dolmar history. Did you try to run it or never been fueled still?

Did you ever meet Mr Floyd Eccleston from my pleasant, mi. Archery hall of fame, he travel with his arrowhead collection. I was on an archery league at his shop. He was good friends with Fred Bear, Floyd was a better archer and story teller.

I cleaned up the P70 roughly ;-) and I'm waiting for the piston / I looked into the carburetor because it does not hold pressure, the lever is too high, there is no strainer and an interesting small connector to the fuel line . I wonder if the coil is good

I never met anyone like that! I was into archery as a young man. I was about 13 when I figured out how to make a sight (of sorts) using masking tape and a straight pin with an orange bead I got from a fishing lure. It was so inconspicuous that I had everybody at summer camp fooled for a time. Bullseye after bullseye. One of the camp counselors asked me to remove it while at the same time praising my resourcefulness, explaining that it was unfair to the other competitors. I suggested the other shooters could do the same as I and she told my parents I was a smart ass. Lol
My days shooting arrows ended when I fell out of a tree after making a shot. Fell on my recurve bow and broke it. Still is painful when I think about it. Missed.

This morning I ran the piss out of this 166. I was really not looking forward to it because it wears me out just starting it. I would not be exaggerating to say you need to pull that thing 15-20 times before it’ll start cold. And it’s a hard pull too.While I had verified spark on the bench, I don’t remember running it since replacing the coil, and now I have a different air filter setup and I’d made a repair to the air deflector at the starter so I figured it’d be a good time to. The saw coughed on the fifth pull and started two pulls later! This is cold from a just filled tank too. I was very happy about that. I knew the old coil was finicky but I guess I just expected a fight. Saw ran great after a few adjustments and looked good doing it. I’m happy.

One to own,

 

[Czed]

I've been remodeling this teardrop camper for my neighbor
He's in a wheelchair so I'm raising the floor to make it more accessible for him
And putting linoleum and wall panels in and rewiring it
I thought it was manufactured but actually a hotrod builder made it to go to car shows
It's very well made.
Except he left 2 screws through the hatch
About 3" proud
I ripped part of my scalp open
Bled an impressive amount.
His dogs now have the taste of human blood
It stopped bleeding quickly but I was covered in it then I needed materials so I went to the hardware store
Nobody said anything.
