No just put some gas in the tank and tried pulling it over quite a few times and nothing. This saw sat for a long time in someones garage.

thanks, what about the fuel pump,or is it just drafted into the carburetor?
What does the impulse lune do to the carburetor on a 031av?
Some of the early model 031 didn't have an impulse line. There is a tiny hole in the carb and one in the manifold. This serves the same purpose as an impulse line but the carbs are different. Make sure you have two fuel lines on your carb when you and if you do, tell your dealer about that so they order the correct kit.
Sorry to disagree with you, but you are probably thinking about the 040's. They had the impulse through the intake stack. Stihl corrected that MISTAKE with the 041. The 040 carburetors and then the 041's were bolted to the cylinder through a manifold with several gaskets. These saws were the last to use this carburetor intake design, and the 041 had a separate impulse line.
This changed with the 030 and then after a year or two with the 031. They did not connect directly to the cylinder, but were the first to use a rubberlike intake boot. There was no way to get impulse to the carburetor through this boot, so there was an impulse line to the carb. (If I am wrong I will apologise) By the way, the intake boot for the 030's was absolute junk. We had to replace lots of those crappy boots. It was solved with better matarials and design on the 031. We didn't have any trouble from there on.
