What's on your bench?

This is the HD air filter on one of my 461s after approx ten tanks of fuel.
And no, I don't run dull chains.

And this broken spark plug on my neighbours 026 cut my right index finger pretty good when I tried to unscrew it by hand.

How do they break like that does anyone know?

Perhaps knock that filter out after every 5 instead?

I believe that a spark plug breaks if it falls on something hard

I got it for free, I only drove a car that cost $15 in fuel. A lot of cleaning, carburetor adjustment and a few screws, and the screw between the dogs is not shown in the catalog, but since I had it, I added it by correcting the factory Someone installed a different cable holder and I tested the fuel cap from a lawn mower.

B&W Zeppelin first version for $15, the right speaker is wheezing. Inside you can see why it is expensive

More wrenching on Project Brownie.



New 2/0 battery cables with military terminals. New battery boxes too.





Got rid of the roof spoiler.



New power steering pump and lines.

The outerwears prefilter would probably benefit you.

I tossed a new piston in this 346xp... it runs pretty damn good. I just ordered new gaskets and seals... I'd love to have this as a top handle...

I have max flow filters on two other saws (a 461 and a 460). They're fantastic but dear to get here.

Kit in a small Walbro.

And a starter rope repair on a Homelite PS33.
Missed the picture.

Quick question for you all. I've got a couple chainsaws that have primer bulbs, but the previous owners took the fuel line off them.

The question. Is the primer supposed to pull fuel through the carb and back to the tank? Or, push fuel into the carb?

Im thinking it pulls through the carb. Is this right? Or is that dependent on manufacturers?

 

[Rich Fife]

Thinking it pulls it from the tank and pushes it into the carb?

 

[Rich Fife]

I can't stand this type of saw but now I have 4 or 5 of them... ahahaha

Pulls it through the carb, and returns it to the tank.

Well, I was 2/3rds correct. Lmao
Idk it went back to the tank... I guess I need to take a look at one a bit closer.

 

[Powerstroke Cowboy]

That's what I was originally thinking, but if that's how it worked, I would think it would flood the engine with just a couple pumps.

Pulls it through the carb, and returns it to the tank.

Thank you Randy! That's what I thought. But wanted to be sure.

 

[heimannm]

I can absolutely confirm that if you connect the purge bulb backwards so it pushed fuel into the carburetor the saw will flood very quickly. I proved it again today...

I don't know what is wrong, the speed screw is at max. closed and the turnover is low anyway. The needle can be depleted or enriched so that the engine stalls. And there is practically no reaction to the gas button. A carburetor with 2 passages, it's the first time I've seen something like this / The engine starts and does not turn off

Strato carb. Uses air to purge the cylinder, not fuel/air mix. OEM carbs are expensive. You can get a cheap Chinese carb on Amazon or eBay. Might solve your problem quickly?

There are some on Amazon that look right and are even cheaper, but they don't state proper part numbers or compatibility.
