Bought a Tanaka ECS 3351 yesterday,  spare or repair . Plentyof compression but I had the exhaust off just in case - nice and clean piston. Rest of the saw was a little grubby but otherwise good condition, little used. Had the feel of being unused, 'parked' under the bench. ...

Anyway reason for the post,  slightly different 2 stroke design with intake charge controlled by a reed valve, don't see that to often in a modern saw and a then one of those 'Really !?! ' moments.....

Did you spot that piece of plastic stuck in the reed valve , it isn't particularly obvious.  Its the leg of the primer bulb. Saw would run on choke, not at all off choke and try as I might I couldn't see a problem with the carb. Checked for pulse signal for the carb pump - nothing,  then we got there,  the reed valve was blocked open. ....
