  • In this video we will look at a Poulan Chainsaw that won't start. There are a few problems with the saw but there is one very big problem that we see every so often and I'll show you what it is. #smallenginerepair

    I like the carb stand! My poulan wood shark has torch plug and I've never changed it and I would of never bought a torch plug and I don't think you can get them from parts store where I live and I've never got a plug online so I'm pretty sure that's what it came with. Good stuff as always!

    Great info. It’s just me, but with a good oil mix,I don’t use any type of stabilizer. I’m going to make that stand, but probably from wood. I prefer to rebuild. Carbs from same place can have been made to different specs. Take care.

    Wow. It's cool that they try and keep the fuel system clear and start it occasionally at The Museum of the 90's where that is stored. I looks like it just came off of the K-Mart blue light special sale from back in the day....

    Great video and commentary Scott!
    What time of day were you working on the saw?
    The work bench/table busy with multiple aerosol cans, shop rags, etc. I'm guessing later in the day.

    I've got a Husqvarna 435 completely rebuilt it, new head piston fuel filter carb air filter fuel filter plug, spark arrester is good, starts but pull throttle just bogs doesn't kill it but bog, been playing with adjustments and nothing. At idle chain spins on bar. Totally 100% stumped and I love you vids they're extremely helpful, wondering if you have any suggestions thanks

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  ปีที่แล้ว

      Chain spinning at idle could be an elevated idle due to and air leak which would also possibly create a bog. If it were on my bench the next step might be to pressure/vaccuum test it.

    What's your opinion on fuel stabilizers in general? I always add a cap full to a full tank every spring when I put the snow blower away.

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've used fuel stabilizers and they seemed to work but lately I've been using canned gas and that seems to work better for really long term storage because when it evaporates its just gone. No "varnish" is left behind.
