Problem with 200t!!!

[johnny83]

Hi all, was using my 200t today and it suddenly cut out mid cut! Pulled it a few times an it finally started up would run for a minute then cut out again, pulled again an lasted 10 seconds before cutting out an so on. Was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem an knows what it maybe? Thank you in advance!!!

hi lots of potential reasons ... try fuel pick up filter in tank worth eliminating

[johnny83]

Yeah had a look at that an seemed to be fine! Couldnt understand how i could be using it for a bit then it would suddenly cut out, would always take a few pulls tho to restart it. The only thing i did notice was that the chain looked like it was oiling more than usual!!

Hi Johnny,

If it just cut out and didnt cough before hand theres a good chance its something electrical, plug ok and good conection ? HT lead may may rubbed through and shorting out ?

Yeah tried the plug aswell seemed to b fine, even replaced it!! Ill try the HT lead in the morning an inspect that, thanks.
