Husky 141 compression?

[jasper89]

What is a good compression reading for a Husky 141? One that a neighbor dropped off is showing 130. Is that too low? Runs but only with mix poured in the carb. Has other issues with fuel line and carb I think.
Thanks for any input.

130# is not your problem. As you say...fuel delivery.

The weak part on 141's is a rubber grommet that seals the impulse tube. Carb screws that are over-tightened can strip out the plastic bulkhead as well.

Thank you. I was thinking the impulse tube and the intake sleeve should be replaced.

Well as it turns out there is an air leak, the bottom of the clamshell was broken by one of the bolt holes. Not sure if it worth fixing. Thanks for your help.

Those saws are quite plentiful so if you find another with a bad top end you can combine the two and make one.

Best solution is to get a Poulan Pro 295/ Poulan 2900 engine, carb and bulkhead and put in it. Make's a nice lightweight saw with some good power.

46cc or something like that if I remember right. I still have a slightly ported and muffler modded 2900 with a 16" bar and .325 chain. Its a little ripper that I used to use sometimes. I don't know why but I like the Husky chassis a little bit more, but the 2900 engine is much better then the 40cc 141/Poulan 2500 for power.
