Check your squish. Check your crank and rod bearings.The bump I described as something more you would hear but maybe it's also an actual bump.
Agreed.#4. Your saw is flooded. It will never start in this condition. With the plug pulled and the saw upside down...pull the recoil until it no longer drips. Let it set overnight. Try to start it the next day WITHOUT choke and in the high idle position. If it doesn't fire, check the plug to see if it's still dry. If it is, place the master control lever on choke and pull until it pops, or no more than maybe 5 times. Place in the fast idle position and pull until it starts.
- Remove the spark plug. Does it turn over nearly effortlessly, with only a slight "bump" as the magnets go past the coil? Yes
- How does the piston and back cylinder wall look with the muffler cover removed? like new , wet
- How does the cylinder wall look through the spark plug hole? same
- Turn the saw upside down with the spark plug removed and pull over quickly. Does any fuel spray out? dripped out
- Is the plug wet or dry when attempting to start WITHOUT choke? dry
- Is the plug wet when attempting to start after several pulls when it IS choked? dry
- Are you getting a nice blue spark? see answer below
- Is the flywheel key sheared? key is whole
If the plug is wet again after the very first pulls WITHOUT choke, then you likely have a bad needle/seat in the carb.
Thanks for checking in. It's raining here today and I have two meetings. I am only going to try to empty it again later today. I will start it tomorrow giving it plenty of time to dry out.Any update?
Agreed.
It's flooded and it won't run until it dries out.
When you cold start a saw if it don't hit in 3 to 5 pulls stop because something is wrong and your flooding it.
I have never seen a saw in decent condition not hit in a few pulls.
I have seen my brother not hear it hit and continue to pull and flood the snot out of it.
Rest assured if it's not running by 6 or 7 pulls then it's not going to.
I was more deliberate than that. I would suspect the carb is leaking. I know how to start and clear a saw. Either way thanks for considering my problem.
An afterthought, I don't think that coil is giving me good fire. I ordered a Briggs Stratton tester where I can see the spark should be here by Saturday. I will proceed as planned until then
Texas button!Try having an OEM 1122 with 190 psi of compression & no Texas Button.
And somebody decided to make it angry all the time. [emoji6]
It will be getting the bicycle tape treatment to the handles also.
That just made it into my working lexicon.
Whoops
Did you set the coil gap correctly, business card between magnets and coil is always a good gauge.
