    Excellent Video. I'm trying to bring my deceased uncle's Poulan 306 back to life. I bought the rebuild kit and realized I really didn't know what to do with it. Now I can rebuild with confidence. Thank you!

    Just an amazingly detailed video. Pure gold because I am a visual learner.
    Bless you Smitty, for the close-ups and detailed explanations through out your educational video.
    God Bless and Protect you and your Wonderful Family!!!

    Good video Smitty 👍. I use plastic/polymer razor blades to remove gasket/ material from aluminum surfaces and highly recommend them. No chance of gouging the surface’s. Still need to be careful with them though so you don’t cut yourself lol.

    Thank you for your video. I rebuilt my carb without any instruction or not really knowing what the heck I was doing, now my saw won' start! After watching your video I can go back and hopefully do it right. Also thanx for showing how to remove and replace the Welch plugs, you are the only one that I have seen do this!

      @@Smittyschainsaws After adjusting the carburetor several times over I’m finally getting this chainsaw to run quite nicely. But it’s still need some fine-tuning. One issue I have always had with this Husqvarna 61 is it seems like there is always excessive oil. When I shut the side down it seems like oil keeps losing and losing until there is oil everywhere. My case has always got a big puddle of oil inside of it. If I were to pull the oil seal and change that without solve that problem?

      @@Zooks4 It just depends on the exact location of the leak. Sometimes it’s best the clean it up really well before looking. Makes it easier to find.

      A cheap pressure/vaccum test with some soapy water helps identify where your air leak is.
      You can also pressure and vac test your carb with one of these things. I like my mitivac with pressure and vaccum. I forgot the model, but you can find cheaper ones.

    That's a really thorough video. Nice job. I really could've used a video like this years ago. You were talking about bow bars on the last video. Southern forest products has bows for sale. I think they are the last company making them.

      @@tonyd6821 something is either causing the needle to stick open allowing fuel to flow freely or you could also have a bad check valve inside the carburetor. Whenever I have a bad check valve I typically replace the carburetor. Cost of repair for a bad check valve is higher than the cost to replace it.

      @@tonyd6821 I have some ideas you can try.
      Yes the gaskets are mostly all the same. Some slight difference can happen but most interchange.
      Make sure the diaphragm is good and soft. Very flexible. If it’s stiff it won’t work correctly. It shouldn’t have a warped look to it either. It should look smooth and even.
      Check the lever that connects to the needle. It could have gotten bent. It needs to be level with the carb floor. Sometimes just a hair higher. If it’s a lot higher just bend it back into position but also make sure it works the needle slightly.
      Check and make sure the metal part of the diaphragm is clipped in properly to the lever. If it’s not then the adjustment could be off.
      Make sure the diaphragm also has the gasket. It has two different parts that stack on top of each other. The diaphragm goes closer to the cover plate. The the gasket goes between the diaphragm and the carb body.
