I have a Dolmar 6100 and it has the special screws. If I remember correctly, it's the double d screwdriver. I like the special screws better as long as you have the tool for it. It's a whole lot easier to stay on them than regular slotted screws.I can see dropping some of that and never finding it. Lol
Do the dolmar 5100 saws have regular screws in the carb? If so is it the same carb without caps? I’d have no problem just buying a new carb so all I needed was a regular screwdriver.
I guess I could order the posted kit and try it. Looks like a lot of parts to lose compared to a regular screwdriver.

I don't think they are removable caps. They are the actual needle screw heads. I ordered mine on eBay individually. I got the double d, the splined one for poulans and the hex one for Stihl. I have no idea about a new carb to replace it.I guess I could order the posted kit and try it. Looks like a lot of parts to lose compared to a regular screwdriver. You guys are raining on my parade.

No way to get the caps off or the same carb with regular screws available?
If it’s a one tool deal I’d be ok with that. That kit makes it look like a combination of several pieces.I don't think they are removable caps. They are the actual needle screw heads.

It's just a kit with any carb screwdriver you would ever need plus some you will never need.If it’s a one tool deal I’d be ok with that. That kit makes it look like a combination of several pieces.
Thanks, I’ll give it a try.It's just a kit with any carb screwdriver you would ever need plus some you will never need.

Received it today and thanks. Pretty slick. Now my next question...... after letting the saw sit for a week or two I have to pull the spark plug and drain gas from the cylinder or I can’t crank it. Any ideas? It’s been this way since I got it new.No
Its just a set screwdrivers with different driver types. They are one pc’s deals like a normal screw driver

YesWait.
Your crank case is filling with fuel when it sits?

You have a bad carb with a needle/seat issue. You need to pressure test the fuel inlet to the carb. It should hold 7-10 psi indefinitely. The pressure from the tank is passing gas into the saw past the needle.Received it today and thanks. Pretty slick.

It runs good and idles fine after clearing the cylinder. I was thinking float, what else would allow the hydraulic lock?Float stuck is my first guess but if the saw runs ok after you do your “dump fuel out the spark plug hole” thing.....than its not your float.

If I use it every two or three days it’s not an issue. Longer than that , hydraulic lock. I guess I’ll try a new needle and seat. I’ve got lots of cutting to do this winter. I want all the bugs out. Hard starts in the summer. I figured screw settings on that.You have a bad carb with a needle/seat issue. You need to pressure test the fuel inlet to the carb. It should hold 7-10 psi indefinitely.
