I just recently bought a Poulan 260 (used). I used it for about a week, it ran great, but now after starting and using it for about 2-3 minutes, it loses power and dies, and I cant restart it. I replaced the fuel lines as this seems to be an issue with these saws. The fuel is new. The gas cap seems to have a blocked vent however the saw would not restart after I took the fuel cap off and then put it back on(to relieve pressure I think). I also removed and cleaned the carburetor and blew out all carb jets. Spark plug looks fine. Only other thing is that after it dies I try and go through starting procedure, including use of primer bulb. The primer bulb does not fill with fuel. Any help is appreciated.
