Hello, I have a Craftsman Model 358353692, 2.3 16" chainsaw that I can't keep running.
I just went through it and found that the fuel line was split in 2 different places.
After the fuel line replacement the saw just does not want to stay running.
It seems that when the choke is on, you give it a pull, it won't start.
Then you take the choke off and full throttle, start it and it runs for a few seconds and then it starts bogging and stops.
Occasionally you get it started this was and as long as you keep it almost wide open, it runs for a minute or 2 then as soon as you let it down closer to idle, it won't rev back up and eventually it stalls.
I went through to check if the fuel line was pinched but did not find anything. Maybe it is just not easily pulling in the fuel from the tank and running dry??
Any ideas?
