A buddy of mine bought an 044 off CL. It started and ran when he checked it out but now its having issues. It will pop and run on half choke but as soon as you take the choke off, it will bog and die.
We cleaned the carb and found it was clean and gaskets were ok. Impulse line was ok. Fuel filter and air filter were ok.
I did a vacuum test on the saw and it looses vacuum as fast as I can pump it up. I did a pressure test and it will hold pressure no problem for several mins.
I am a little confused why it does well on one test but not the other. What should my course of action be?
