Nice video that! On another note how do you change the piston/piston rings if your saw is faulty because of the pistons/piston rings?

cheers i never new there a filter in there either good video.

[Dean Lofthouse]

No worries guys, my pleasure.

 

There is a gauze filter in most carbs....the symptom for the gauze needing cleaning is a gradual decrease in power under load over short period of time, until eventually the saw will start and run but dies as soon as you try to cut.

 

I mix my fuel in 20 litre jerry cans which means that oxidisation from inside the cans blocks the gause filters on most of my mainly used saws all around the same time, normally every 18 months to 2 years they get a clean.

 

The aim of the vid is to try and save some of you a lot of hassle putting your saws into a repair shop and losing a couple of days for the sake of a ten minute job to most of you once you know how

 

If I think of more I'll post
