bogging down

[rippa]

I got a jonsered 2036 from a friend for free he said it did'nt run so I put a new plug and fresh gas in ran great. now after using all summer it idles fine but when you gas it,It will just bog down and stall.

Sometimes its the simplest thing, cleaned the air filter lately? Double check your carb settings as well.

I tried cleaning the air filter don't really know how it was'nt that bad I blew it out I'm thinking maybe a clogged jet but I'm lost when it comes to carbs

You might get a lot more help if you posted it in the chainsaw forum, The guys on there will know what you need.

alright,Where's the chainsaw forum?

 

[rippa]

Found it, thank's

There is a screen in the exhaust that can get plugged with carbon causing loss of power and bogging. Either clean the screen regularly, or do as I do and throw it away.

The screen with 1/2 a purpose, that is so easy to forget sometimes.

Too bad its not easier to remove from some engines. Some are easy, but seems that half are not.

My preference is to cull the screen the day of purchase for urban use.

Thank's man!

My 365 did that this spring, have had it for 10 yrs now, exact same thing.....carb was gummed up/clogged. My local Husky guy cleaned er out $20 later is running like new again! That's likely the cause

Yeah the saw did sit for a few years before I got it.It's just that the thing was rippin' all summer no problem but I'll get it going.I just did'nt want to bring it to the shop,Would like the save $$.You think I could spray something in the carb or run sea-foam through it?

Don't try to fix a broken saw with Sea Foam Snake Oil......if it was running well and now isn't.....something needs to be fixed. You could have a clogged exhaust screen, a fuel line with a hole in it, or something in your carb. The Sea Foam will not fix a clogged exhaust or carb jet.

How do you get at the screen all there is is a little sliver on the muffler for exhaust there's two 8mm nuts will that open up the muffler?

 

[oneoldbanjo]

I have never seen a Jonsered 2036 so it is a little tough to help you find the screen....however here is a link to an eBay listing I found that shows the muffler with the screen removed:
