I have this massive pain in the caboose stihl fs450 brush cutter which is just being a pig.
It has had a new piston and cylinder as the last one was toast, scored and rings held in.
Carb kit, it was leaking out of one of the gaskets when primed. New gaskets and diaphragms.
Now the issue is, it didn't run when it came to me and it had almost no compression.
It will fire when you spray carb cleaner in the carb and put the choke on, then abruptly stop. Won't run off choke at all. I've swapped the primer lines round and there is not different result really. I am running out of things to try. Just won't seem to take off. Plenty of compression, spark is healthy too.
