I never thought I would not be able to fix my own saws stihl has found a way
I used it friday to cut up a medium size tree nothing special maybe three 10 foot logs 16-18" diamiter ran great. then I go to use it sunday (this is the part that really pisses me off) I sharpen it first go to fire it up nothing, say screw it throw it back in the truck grab a different saw for the job.
today I try and get er figured out I come to the conclusion its a pos...
has a good spark, tried a couple different known good plugs
is getting fuel
wont pop on starting fluid either
has a near new piston and cylinder which still looks good
tried resetting the carb adjustments(limiters removed)
yes I was using a proper mix
only thing I havn't done is check compression with a gauge (because I don't have one for small engines)
so what ya'll got?
