I filled the 359 up with gas yesterday and it leaked gas all over the tailgate. I figured it was a fuel line but after removing the line I didn't find any cracks. I removed the tank and found that the Check valve or vent had come out of the tank. I stuck it back in biu it seems way to loose to...

Changing it over to a regular adjuster does seem like the best option. I'll take the cover off and see what it looks like. Thanks Cannon

I need a bar for a Craftsman (Poulan) 46cc saw. It uses .325, .50, 78dl chain and has an adjuster built in to the bar. The saw #358.350200 parts break down shows the bar Part #71-36599 to be NLA with no substitute. The number on the bar is 350044832 best I can tell. I put both bar numbers in the...

Just to get this thing sorted out I ordered a 57 link " PANZHENG Chainsaw Chain" off Amazon for $7. It arrived yesterday and after putting it on everything seems to be working. I ordered a better chain from Baileys along with some other stuff but part of it is backordered. It won't be here until...

Well that didn't work. I was cutting some limbs with it and discovered that it wasn't oiling. The slot in the adjuster let the bar go back to far to line up with the oil hole. Cannon

I took the chain to the hardware be sharpened last week, they didn't cut it back far enough to be sharp but did Blue the teeth. $8 wasted. I went to Tractor Supply this morning and got a 56 link chain. It had a 57 ( TS didn't have one) on it but the manual says 56. The 56 went on a little tight...

The pump and gear came in today. Their a little different than what I had, guess I should have paid more attention when I ordered them. the old gear has a wider rim and the pump has a adjustment that the old one didn't have. I tried the gear first, turned the sprocket by hand for a while but no...

I ordered an $8 pump and gear off Amazon. I'm not expecting much but maybe all I need is the gear. I'll report back. I'll be 70 later this year, small light weight saws are looking better to me. Cannon

Carb kit arrived yesterday so this morning I installed new gaskets, diaphragm, screen and needle in it. There was a little dirt in the old screen but mostly the carb was clean. The Diaphragm made noise when I moved it back and forth so I think that was the problem. I got it together and it...

I tried to get it running again this morning and failed. I got the carb off and I think it's a Walbro WT591A. I have a hard time reading those numbers even with my glasses. I'll get a gasket and diaphragm kit and see what happens. I'll worry about the oiler if I get it running. Cannon

One of my neighbors was cleaning out an out building and ask me if I wanted a chainsaw, I said yes. He brought me a Red Max G3800AVS. He said his dad stopped using it a few years ago because the oiler quit working. I got it to run a few seconds off a little gas put in the carb intake but it...

Well, after having it running about a hour ago I left it setting on the truck tailgate. I went out a few minutes ago and pumped it 6 or 8 times and it filled up. The trimmer then cranked and ran fine. I don't know if one of the check valves had dried out or what but the Zama is fixed, at least...

My brother brought me this Stihl FS85R trimmer last year and I put a Chinese carb on it. It ran the rest of the year but he couldn't start it this year. He bought a new one and gave it to me. The primer bulb filled on it but it wouldn't run. I had kept the old Zama so I cleaned it out and put it...

I do still have my 10546 but the blue coil is now dead. A few months ago I bought a $15 coil on ebay that was supposed to fit but of course it didn't. Cannon

I dumped the old gas out of it, put fresh in it, choked it and it cranked right up. The spool,cap and spring were missing from the head so I bought another one. I used it about 45 minutes yesterday and it did fine. There may be something wrong with it but I haven't found it. Cannon

To update this thread. I went over to my BIL's yesterday to see his new Deere Gator. He brought the FS94R to my truck and said I could have it. It had been to the Stihl dealer 3 times since I had it and every time I ran good for about a month then acted up again. He bought another Stihl and is...

My brother brought his 2750 to me said he could not get it to run right. I changed the fuel line, fuel filter and cleaned the walbro carb. If anything it's worse than it was. I took it apart this afternoon and when I removed the fuel line from the carb gas sprayed everywhere, like it was under...

My BIL took it to the Stihl dealer last Monday. Yesterday I saw him using it and went over and ask him what they had to do to it. He said they ordered a Stihl carb for it and that fixed it. I hate when I can't figure out what's wrong with something but it does happen. I appreciate the help non...

I have considered that. My BIL said it's running exactly like it did before he took the carb apart, so since I changed the carb with no difference I wonder if that was the problem. I have an FS55 parts trimmer but don't know if they use the same coil. Bailey's list a new coil for $136.99...

New plug made no difference. Cannon
