8 years later and you just saved me from a day of confusion. Thank you.
Great video, could not believe the dry rotted lines when I took saw apart. Saved much money taking it in. Thank You !
It costs a little more to have a pre-spooled line, but when you're in the middle of a trimming job th-cam.com/users/postUgkx429xwEjNPnwzQohFrURRyKF51YfOD_Du , it is so nice to just pop out the old one and pop in a new one. Love Black & Decker tools. Especially the 20-volt battery operated ones. And, as usual, it came on time. Thanks Amazon!
Thanks for the video. I recently purchased this Chainsaw and discovered the fuel line was rotted. I followed your video step by step and got the job done. A few adjustments to the carb and it runs well. Thanks again!
Note on getting the thick tube into the gas tank.
Tools:
Razor or utility knife
Needle nose pliers
Make about a 3/4 inch diagonal cut in the end of the tube.
Insert the cut end down the top of the tank hole.
That should leave enough tube to grab the sliced end through the gas tank opening with the needle nose.
Pull enough out. Square the cut end. Put on the filter. Pull it back into the tank.
THANK YOU for this video. You saved me from having to buy another chain saw ($200.00-250). Followed your instructions and saw started right up and is running like new. THANKS AGAIN!!!!!!!! 5-23-2019
More comprehensive information than other videos of the same machine. Well done!
Great job on the video. Very clear, no wasted time, like the way you sped through certain parts.
Very good video and very helpful. I had trouble feeding the fuel lines in and brought a long needle nose player that helped grab the line in the tank and pull it through. Your video was very good quality and well done. Thank you
Your video made in 2015, and did me great 3 years later. Thanks so much for doing so.
This was PERFECT to get mine fixed! My only three moments of "What the" Was with the carburetor being in so long the seal was sticking it. Just nudged it with a screwdriver and off it went. The second was trying to thread the hose through, That was tough, (good call with the 2 cycle oil) and then I had a pair of curved needle nose pliers. Lastly, the smaller hose had a small Inside Diameter making it hard to put on the fuel filer and back onto the carburetor, I just grabbed a lighter to warm the end of the hose up a bit and that did the trick. Excellent video!
I can't believe I got it running again! Thanks for the video. My carburetor is a little different and has both fuel lines on the right side. The top was the fuel inlet (from the filter) for anyone who has the same one. I'll admit though getting those new fuel lines into the tank was a pain!
excellent video great instruction clear picture no loud music to distract you. My fuel lines were already falling apart so the routing was difficult. really good job
Wanted to say thanks, I watched you're video and was able to repair my chainsaw. Was looking to buy a new one, just saved me some money. Thank you
The best video I have seen for this type chainsaw. It is the same as my Poulan 2250. Thanks for showing where all fuel lines go.
Just found this same chainsaw in a shed behind my new house. Had the exact same problem. Thanks to you I got an almost-free chainsaw. Excellent video, took no time to do it.
Thank you! The timing of your video
was awesome, The remanence of Patricia went by our home and took down a tree onto my deck... And of course, my chainsaw wouldn't start.. With your video I was was able to repair it.. It started right up! Thanks a million!
Your diagram helped out...thanks for the video.
Thanks a ton. Doing some after-storm cleanup and of course that's when my fuel line comes apart. This got me up and running again. Excellent, clear instructions and diagrams.
Something I did that helped with feeding the line was to sacrifice the last inch or so of the tube and trim the wall thinner with an X-acto knife. Feeding it from the outside of the tank this gave me just enough so that I could grab it from inside the tank with a set of extra long needlenose. Once pulled through I cut off the trimmed end before fitting the fuel filter. Anyway, thanks again.
Ok
Very well done video! Outstanding job!
And once again helped me out greatly in 2021. Thanks so much for posting this.
Great video. I really appreciate you taking the time to detail out the lines and explain. Helped me replace mine in no time. Thank you.
I have same saw but I ran the big tube off of the filter into the carb and the bulb on the left side to siphon through. The filters I have OEM are the larger tube size.
Thanks for the video! I have the exact same chainsaw that needs a tune - up. Really helpful, liked and subscribed!
Great video! It was exactly what I needed to route the fuel lines correctly!
Thank you for the video! Helped me with my repair.
Thank you so much for the video!! You saved me a ton of work!!
Thanks for the video man,totally helped me out.
Good video. Have the 16" and the big question was where does the mystery fitting go. My fuel lines were rotted and disconnected, parts laying in the tank. Seen diagrams showing the pressure fitting actually goes into the housing (wrong). Your video nailed it, goes on the end of the exit fuel line to act like a stop. The rest of the video for tips on threading the fuel lines.
My Craftsman 18" 42 cc chainsaw is identical to the chainsaw in this video. It has a ZAMA C1Q W9A carburetor instead of your Walbro WT391 carburetor. Except for the brand, both carburetors are identical.
I do not know if the ZAMA carburetor is a replacement or was original equipment. I benefited from your instructional videos. The ZAMA carburetor and chainsaw work perfectly now.
Thank you for posting this video.
Thank you for this video sure did help me!! Just a question how was the idle when y'all put back together ? Thanks
Great job, mine was a slightly different model, but your video was a great help.
nice work, thanks for slowing down a bit... never seen hands that could move so fast LOL
Excellent videos!!!
Thanks, glad I saw this before tearing into it. My problem is that when it uses the gas the tank isn't venting and gets a vacuum going. You can hear it suck air in when you take out the cap. Was there anything in there that you saw that could be blocking the tank vent, or where is it? The saw is a couple of years old but has very little run time. Everything looks fine, the hoses appear to be in great shap, but I'm afraid some varnish has formed inside and blacked the vent. Thanks if you see this, muchly appreciated.
Thank you for the excellent video. It was very helpful. I am still having difficulty pushing the thicker fuel line (for choke). Where can I buy the wire tool you showed on video or did you make it yourself? If there are any tricks to do this please share it . Thanks.
Great video!
great video , my primer pump when pressed stays in ,ive changed all the carb gaskets made sure the tubes are the right way round ,dump tube to long prong ,carb to short prong ,any ideas please
Thank you.Just what I needed.I got it done 🙂
Great video. Thanks
-Wonderfully done ... I have been going through vids on this project and they left me frustrated ... This vid made the job just that simple... as you presented it. - T/Y.
Excellent video bubz
The diagram @ 5:00 is very helpful. Thanks, for the posting.
Thanks. One tip that may help others is if you find that the tubing is too small. Heat it up with a heat gun and that can help just about any size tubing to fit on those very hard to assemble fittings.
Thanks - best one of these videos I've seen on replacing the fuel lines.
.
The sketch showing diagram of fuel line routing - - WAS KEY!
Thanks vm.
Thank you. The Best video I've found on TH-cam, et alia. Finally, a through & complete DIY!
God Bless America!
Thanks. best video quality, + the diagram really helped. Thanks again
Excellent video...top-of-the-line!
Hey DIY TINKER, probably the best how to on fuel line replacement I've watched so far. With your permission I would like to link to this video. Zombie Dave. Thanks in advance
nice to know you enjoyed the video. thanks for linking the video. more exposure is always great.
what is the gauge size on this 18"
Great video, my issue is the carb that is on there sombody took a screwdriver to it and it junk. I bought this at a garage sale for 5.00 so my question is that i have looked on ebay and elsewhere for a replacement carb can't seem to locate one. The carb thats on there is a Walbro WT391 i see a bunch of them but the choke linkage looks different. Have they discontinued that carb? if so whats the replacement?
Thx Cliff
i just watched this video today and had my chainsaw working in about 45 min. ty. old vids can still be helpful
Thank you!
thanks a lot.can you tell me the fuel lines sides please??
The best shoes to where while drinkin and chainsawin yeehaw hold my beer and watch this..
a great video, is that a rattle snake i can hear in the background ?
I have been working on the same thing but mines nice little craftsman 36cc 16inch bar I have been working hard on the fuel tubes are a pain getting them through there little holes and that wire thing that supposed to pull them through did not work out for me but I did my best and it's still working out alright for me mine the fuel lines are on tope left side and the other is on the bottom right side I at first almost get confused on how I was gonna get this back together but that was then
do you know what size that the 2 different sizes were?
Do you know what sizes the two different hoses are?
Got all my fuel lines replaced. New plug and filter. Runs like new. Thank you very much. Big help.
Sam, Im working with a Model# 358.351060, looks very similar
What size were the two plastic lines you ran with the fuel filter???
Is there a link to the carb cleaning process?
very helpful thanks
2022...video still helping! Did anyone use the piece at 4:00, are you suppose to pull it all the way to the hole?? Thanks
Thank yous for sharing
now what replacement chain is compatible??
bro can you tell me whats the model the you showing on youtube please thanks
Thank you for the video. I really appreciate it. I thought I had to go to Sears to get it fix and those bastards would have charge me like $200. Now I can fix it by myself. Thanks again!
Can someone tell me the description of the Black fuel line "coupling" at 3:57 he might put on, and where to get one?
Your hands were in the way to show which tube went where.
All is good except frame 5:35, this will go right there and this will go right here... Which one is for dump which one is for intake???
Went through the comments, I couldn't find anyone ask if there's a filter for the primer bulb. It would make sense as to preventing dirt from getting into the carb.
It’s inside the tank attached to one of the fuel lines.
The wire is not needed just trim end of fuel line and use 12" locking clamp pliers from harbor freight to pull the line thru from inside the tank.
I have a craftsman 42cc 18inch chainsaw my friend gave me. its like brand new , but it doesn't have a airfeulter. the only way it start up. I half to shoot Quick start into the motor, then it start up for alittle bit, When I gas it, it bog down and die. dose it need the air feulter to run
sounds like a dirty carb. clean that out and add the air filter back.
What year is this saw
im having a hell of time getting the line into the tank
James Fank Me too. Could you figure out how to get it?
Anyone know the fuel line sizes?
Great video - I have the same saw but can not read the model number in order to order parts. Could you provide your model number? Thanks
My chainsaw looks the same and is model 358351480 made in 1999.
Repaired a similar model 18" Craftsman chainsaw, though I believe it was a model 1-2 years older than the one in this video. It sat for probably 15 years without being touched, so the fuel lines had disintegrated and the fuel had gummed up the carb fairly well.
I drilled that small hole (for the fuel intake) slightly larger so that the fuel tube would slide right through it, then used a small amount of silicone to seal things back up. Made the fuel line replacement much easier. I ended up replacing the carb...new one was less than $20 and I figured most the small parts, check valves, and diaphragms were gummed up due to the saw being in storage for so long (with gas left in the tank).
Would you mind telling me the model number of your chainsaw? Mine looks exactly the same and I can't read my model number (It's worn away). I need some parts, but I don't have a model number. Thanks for making this video!
CluelessBeeKeeping looks like the 358.350080
Thank you!
thank you...
thanks
Thankyou
Whats the matter charles?
What model is this chainsaw. I have one but can't get the part without the number
My chainsaw looks the same and is model 358351480 made in 1999.
You saved me!
Can I get the model number? I'm looking for parts to the one I own but can't find thee number.
My chainsaw looks the same and is model 358351480 made in 1999.
ty. I replaced my fuel lines and now engine wont start. seem gas not getting to engine. anyvthoughts? I'm jammed over this as I can't get it running
Sears craftsman chainsaw carb
Mine runs like a charm for 5-7 minutes, then dies. Dies like it is getting zero fuel. Will not restart until it cools down. Did the EXACT SAME THING, BEFORE AND AFTER I installed a brand new carb, new fuel lines, new fuel filter, and new spark plug. Also, fresh fuel and oil. Ughhh. Totally frustrated. Craftsman 18” 42 cc, model #358.341900. Any ideas folks?
Sounds like it is overheating, causing the piston to expand in the bore. Check that there is no sawdust in the flywheel and cylinder cooling fins. Richening the high speed jet a little will also make it run cooler.
@@hightidegoldendoodles4359 It is your coil / plug wire assembly..known problem...replace it and it will run good. When the coil heats up it can do this....happens on a lot of craftsman equipment using this same magneto coil assembly.
This thing is basically a Poulan/Husqvarna
Better then new 1s
ya brah, you're cool. Aloha
Went through several video's, no help at all. Not really show good where lines went or not hear what they were saying. Your pic diagram tells it all. Thank you.
Worst part of this video is them flip flops
Good job, very helpful. But...running a chainsaw in flip-flops...not too smart.
Don't put ethanol gas in your chainsaw or you will be doing this again shortly...
making the fuel line retrieve harder than it is... think it through and lubricate the line as it goes in the tank hole...
Doug H. in VA nah it’s difficult any way you tackle it
I'm lost....
