My saw seems to work fins now - I thought a liitle about
the little scratch I could find in the inlet boot part 503 86
63-02 and sort of found it hard to belive this could be the
culprit - at the same time I sort of added one "a little bit
superior" reaction I got from a Swedish guy who sort of
seemed to think he could fix my saw without parts - so I
assemled the saw agin and this time pressure test (with
bicycle pump and home made pressurizing kit as before)
gave perfect result - just one pump and then almost 1 bar
and no leeking at all - I could press decomp after perhaps
45 second and got a big "phuuuu ..." - so thereafter I ass-
embled saw and tried to start it - found it sounded strang-
ely silent - and didn't started - then I compared with other
functioning 346xp which did not sound silent like that at
all (of course - as I am well familiar with their sound) - so
I relized I had forgotten to make hole in home made exha-
ust gasket made from bulk gasket carpet
- well, **** hap-
pens
- this was at end of day light - so I took some food
and a beer and two more beers - then I felt strangely more
courageable and took off muffer and made hole in mentio-
ned gasket - and after that saw started in just 4 pulls or so
(though having been "petrolized" earlier at start attemps
with blocked muffer outlet) ... .
SOO - what must have happened - as I have tried to refit in-
let boot once before with big leak as result - but without dis-
mantling it into its parts completely and cleaning the parts
etc - that must have been that the original problem was that
the inlet boot parts was ever so little dislocated relative each
other ... . (Which perhaps the above mentioned Swedish guy
(who reputedly has like 1000 saws or so) sort of knew about
... .)
Anyway - AN EASY FIX ...
. Now I now it is not at all as
hard as it seems
... .
