026 bogging down

[Mull]

Worth checking the internal carb gauze filter under the cover with the single screw and the manufacturers name on it.

 

 

 

If it is full of sawdust, it will starve the saw of fuel when flat out but it may just be a partial seizure.

 

 

 

Worth checking the coil to flywheel gap although this usually stops the saw working when warm.

 

 

 

Check all is well with the plug!

 

 

Internal gauze filter? Having a look but not seeing it!

As spud says take off the carb, remove the cover that has the large single screw, under that there will be a hole in the carb body with a filter in it

BTW. I've got an ultrasonic cleaner if you're stuck and need to clean the carb.

Thanks Bob.

That fuel line doesn't look great, you only need a tiny hole that sucks air in when the saw is under load and it will cause problems.

It would only be a few quid to change that.

Filter a bit dirty, gave it a clean and tried, cut first log or two no probs then back to bogging down:(. Seems to start doing this as soon as it warms up.

 

If you are still talking about the tank filter bin it and fit new. Easy things first.

Will get new one with fuel line.

Be sure to order the correct fuel line as there are two types, they differ in diameter where they fit into the tank.
