Clinically Diagnosed with CAD
I have a 211c that has caused me more problems than all my other saws combined and I dont know what else to do with it!
Symptoms:
1. Hard to start
2. Once started, adjustment screws dont make any difference, I can turn them up and down and the rpms do not change.
3. Idles crazy fast and wont adjust down, then suddenly goes from crazy fast idle to too slow and dies, then wont restart without having to put it on choke.
What I have checked or tried:
1. Cleaned and rebuilt the carb
2. Checked compression
3. Looked into the cylinder and do not seeing any damage
4. Vacuum tested the carb and it held good
5. Changed out the H and L adjustment needles
6. Verified it was getting fuel and it doesnt seem to be flooding
7. Tried a different carb
Anyway, I know I should probably test the crankcase for leaks, but I dont have the tool for that. I have a vacuum hand pump if there is a way to test it with that.
Other than that any ideas?
