    Husqvarna 359 fuel leak

    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...

    20 inch bar for Craftsman

    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...

    Got a Free Red Max G3800AVS

    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...

    Zama primer bulb not filling with fuel

    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...

    FS94r fuel lines

    My BIL brought his nearly new Stihl FS94r trimmer to see if I could get it running. He had taken the carburetor apart so I'm wondering if the fuel lines are on correctly. I got it to run for a few seconds but after it died it is dripping gas out the air filter housing. The only time I ever had...

    Locked Up Husqvarna 128LD Trimmer

    I made an impulse buy on a facebook Buy-Sell-Trade page yesterday. This 128LD trimmer was listed as "Locked up-Good for Parts $40". Someone had offered $20 and it was excepted but the add stayed up. Yesterday I went and got it for $20. I got home and sprayed a bunch of penetrating oil in the...

    Stihl BG72 Blower Fuel Cap

    I'm working on a BG72 blower for a buddy. The gas cap is busted and sprays gas everywhere when it runs. I found a part number 4128 350 0505 but the ones I have found for sale http://tewarehouse.com/125-207 do not appear to be vented and the Original clearly is. I don't mind buying a cap, just...

    Yard sale Poulan 2055

    I got this Poulan at a yard sale yesterday for $10. When I got home I dumped out the gas tank and as usual the filter and several pieces of gas line came out with the gas. I've replaced lines on a few of these but have not seen the 2 extra pieces in the last picture before. Looks like a...

    Scrapyard Poulan P3314

    I got this Poulan at the scrapyard a few days ago. It had compression so I thought a carb kit might get it running. When I got it home and checked it out I saw that the filter had come loose from the line in the tank. I pulled the line out and cut a little off it and put the filter back on. I...

    Stihl FS55RC KAT Muffler

    The last time I used this trimmer it took forever to get it started, it would not rev up, and after using it about 5 minutes I turned it off and the muffler kept smoking like it was on fire. I took it apart this far thinking there was a screen that was clogged up but I have never seen a muffler...

    Salvage Yard Husky/Jonsered/Poulan/Ryobi

    I dropped off some metal at the salvage yard yesterday and came away with some junk saws and trimmers. The Poulan 2750 had a muffler bolt I needed for a 46cc Craftsman. After robbing the bolt I looked in the tank and found the small broken pieces of gas line and fuel filter. It had compression...

    3 trimmers to Repair

    I was at a friends house Sat night and he said he had 3 trimmers he could not get running. I told him I would take them home and look at them. First is a Craftsman Brush Whacker. The carb is all varnished up, the air filters have turned to power but it will start with a little premix poured in...

    Stihl FS76 Manual

    My BIL is cleaning out his basement and brought me a Stihl brush trimmer model FS76. I could not find a manual on the Stihl site, probably because it's been out of production for so long. I haven't tried to crank it yet but it has compression. Any information appreciated, Owners manual, IPL...

    2 free Mccullach From MIL

    I was fixing the door to my mother-in-laws out building last week and saw 2 old chainsaws. I married into the family in "84 and my FIL passed in 91 and I never saw anyone use these saws. I asked my Brother-in-law Sunday if he wanted them and he said he didn't so I went and got them today. All...

    Knocked my old XL-12 off the bench

    I was fooling around with a couple of my saws this morning and knocked the XL-12 off the bench onto the concrete floor. Looks like the handle bracket is the only thing that broke. I hate when I do stupid stuff. I've found a couple on ebay and unless someone on here has one it's going to cost...

    How to diagnoise air leaks

    Last fall I bought a Craftsman/Poulan That had good compression, would crank, run wide open and could not be chocked down. Yesterday I bought a Ryobi Trimmer that will run on choke but die when you pull the trigger. While running on choke I can completely cover the carb intake with my thumb and...

    Poulan Pro Blower Piston Gaulded

    My wife and I kept our granddaughter Friday, when my son got home and we were getting ready to leave he ask me if I would take his blower home and see why it would not crank. This is what I found. The ring gap is .012 just above the intake port, the cylinder does not look or feel damaged but the...

    Homelite part?

    I have a broken chain break band on my old Homelite. When I do a parts search on UT10546 I find a saw that doesn't look like mine. I found a part breakdown on a Super Mini S (not SL) that showed the part #94014 but searching that part number didn't turn up anything. Cannon

    New Trimmer/Brushcutter Recommendation

    I'm giving my tired Deere/Homelite BC1600 to my son and getting a new one. I'd like to have a straight shaft, 2 stroke capable of occasional brush blade use comparable to the one I had. I think I paid $179 for this one in the spring of '03 and it has worked very well for me. Will I have to go to...
