My little tree saw (Dolmar 3410TH with reed box) seems to run fine for short cuts -- plenty of power, good throttle response, seems to run fine -- but if I put a sustained load on it, for example, if I try to buck up a 6" log, it dies as if it's starving for fuel. I can sometimes keep it going by "pumping" the throttle trigger, but usually not.
Is this commonly a symptom of a particular problem? What would you folks look at first? Fuel filter...?
Sometimes the reed box gets "loose" and it exhibits symptoms of a borderline air leak where you can't fatten it up enough to get the WOT RPMs down and the proper flutter/burble sound...I'll check that. Anything else?
