Ok, so based on Brads Eeeeeeeeviiiiil influence from this thread.

I decided to Beef up my 170.
Got the carb off Fleabay, disassembled it, and cleaned the main body of it in a jar of mineral spirits in my Harbor Freight US cleaner. Reassembled, and installed it on the saw.
Now here's where my problem begins. I dribbled a little mix down the carb throat cuz I knew the carb was dry. It fired, but of course quickly ran out. So after about 20 times of dribbling gas down the carb it REFUSES to pick up fuel!!!
Everything is tight on the saw, the carb gaskets/diaphram aren't dried out, and it has a 'spankin new fuel line on it.
Any ideas, where I've screwed the pooch?
Thanks All!
