Did you change the fuel line? On that series of saws, they will split right at the grommet where they enter the fuel tank, and be hard to see if you dont pull it out some. Just a thought....
Yeah, I did replace the fuel line. It was split right where you said.Did you change the fuel line? On that series of saws, they will split right at the grommet where they enter the fuel tank, and be hard to see if you dont pull it out some. Just a thought....
Hey Ron "SNAP" hehe
I just did that. The grease didn't budge.You won`t feel the pulse needed to drive the diaphragm in the car, put a dab of hard grease or vaseline in/over the impulse hole, pull the saw over, if it moves you have impulse.

Rusty, I went through your checks. Mity Vac is handy.
Seems to check out fine.
Can anyone confirm that the H and L screws are the same (Walbro WT) ?
They came in the kit and weren't labeled and appear to be the same and fit in either hole.
Next step is to mess with the metering lever.
I dunno, maybe the choke/throttle lock somehow brings some fuel up ???BUT Brian how did it run at all then if it's had no impulse all along ?
If it were me I would have had it fall off while I was working on the carb and I didn't notice......but it's odd to me it ran at all without it.

I gotta stop working on more than one saw at a time. I'm too scatter-brained for that. LOL

No sign of impulse. I figured it might have some when it was running, so I put it together anyway.
It's a brand new jug. I guess maybe something could be in there ? I'm pretty clean when working on these things. I guess I'll have to try to see in there with a light or pull the damned jug off.
Is there a way I can test the "impulse circuit"(?) by putting the piston in a certain position and blow air into the plug hole, or something like that ?
You can just try pulling vacuum through that port with a vac gun. Of course it should nopt hold vac, if it does its blocked. Blowing comp air through it will clear most blockages without removing the jug.
I'll try sucking it with the Mighty Vac. Not sure about blowing into it. I'm just afraid that, if there is something there, I'm blowing it into the crankcase ? I'm picturing a casting chunk that wasn't ground off ? What the heck else could be blocking it ? I'd prefer to blow it out, if that's somehow possible. I don't really understand the impulse thing so straighten me out if I'm just being paranoid.
Again, thanks for sticking with me on this.
