Ok so I'm headed out to do a little recreational cutting with the ole 038 mag II. start it up life is good. hit the throttle for that first cut and she runs up real nice. (as always) But I miss my spot so release the trigger, re aim and hit the trigger again. this time the trigger is frozen solid, cant squeeze it at all. still idling fine. shut the saw off set her on the dining room table an hour before dinner, love you babe lol. and pull the carb. the butterfly valve is free, no undue resistance after the throttle pushrod is disconnected. ok so try the trigger. nope nothing, still froze/stuck. so the question is how do i gain access to the trigger and the pushrod assembly?? I'm sure its just a piece of crap lodged in there but how do i get at it. I do have a four pound hammer but that seems like fun and so must certainly be the wrong thing to use.
