My old man last year found this 5000+ at my local trash transfer station. he said the guy flung it off his truck and claimed it to be a POS..he picked it up knowing i have a chainsaw addiction. finally got around to it. she runs but only until she heats up.. it has a crazy gas venting system, that once hot it bubbles gas and turns off..
clutch&drum
so far i replaced the flywheel key (it sheared 2 btw)
put new spark plug
new coil
oil cap
clutch cover had a crack in it, JB weld back together.
anyone have a 5000+ that vents weird?
