Just got done helping a neighbor C&S about 8 cords:
I have about 11-12 cords to do and started on the los today. My 361 was running fine, then I swear I heard something clog the carb...it started to stumble. Let it idle for a few, start a cut, half way through it would start stumbling again. I grabbed another saw and finished for the morning(sun was a gettin hot). Took the saw in the shop and found a "shattered carb"...wtf?:
Bottom bracket was broken off, the two center bolts were still tight. This one was modded so removing the internal baffle might have weakened it. So off to the Millermatic I went:
Then I used the flat side of mty 12" cut off saw to square it all back up:
more to follow............
