So Friday after work I stopped by my local TSC, just to browse a bit and check out the clearance tables. I spotted a Jonsered 2234 S sitting on the shelf. It was labeled "Does not run" and priced at $20 :msp_w00t:. The bar and chain showed no use, so I figured it for a simple fix. Once at home I gave it a quick once over, and couldn't find anything obviously wrong. So I fueled it up and she ran on the 3rd pull, but died out after a few seconds. Closer inspection revealed a small crack in the fuel tank where it was sucking air, and leaking a bit of fuel. My local Canadian Tire had a fuel tank repair kit in stock for $16, so about 5 min of prep work, and a bit of epoxy from the kit, and some fibreglass cloth, she was all sealed up and good as new. Not a bad little saw for a $36 investment!!
