  1. Oh it was a very large blue mysterious cloud bud, at one point i thought the neighbors would be ringing 999. There was rather a lot of gunk that reared it's ugly head mate to be seen no more i hope ,like you say it explains it all doesn't it as you correctly point out the oil would not drain from the exhaust port that easily,at least if you ever come across this again you'll know where to look,i'm now a happy Bunny again thanks to you lot. Guess what i'll be doing tomorrow.
  2. Que a Fanfare of Trumpets,the damn thing is fixed,da da der da. Right first and foremost i would like to thank everyone on here for all your invaluable help with the posts you have saved me nigh on £100 notes which i don't have spare at the moment ,so cudos to all again. Right well now you want to know what i have done to fix it,and i want to say that Mr Spud u Like came up with the goods initially and put me on the right step,the problem i had as you may have gathered by now was the addition of some 3 in 1 light machine oil through the plug hole on the advice of one very good experienced car mechanic friend of mine.We thought at the time that this was a good idea as the saw had stood for three years,and it was not offering to pull over smoothly at all upon first inspection.little did we know but this just compounded our problem which led to the saw for want of a better term going into a state of Hydraulics. This led to us thinking that even more oil was needed so we did add more oil only to make matters worse still . Because of this excess oil addition resulting in extra compression in the saw being as hard as fk to turn the thing over with the pull rope i decided to follow Spuds advice to the letter over night last night,and thankfully the bulk of the oil was ejected,however upon refitting the muffler the damn thing was still a bastard to turn over so i thought can only be one last thing to try......... I Won't reveal what I did just yet,so come on guys ???What did i do to get the little beauty purring .Oh and this particular thing had been the most likely result of what we did three weeks ago,thinking logically.
  3. Ok here are some pictures of the cylinder and piston.I have done what Spud suggested so i'm just going to put the muffler back on to see if it's pulling over as it should do fingers crossed.
  4. Oh so quite close then,i'm treading water with it at the moment so this might be an option.
  5. I was advised by someone ,a car mechanic actually he reasoning was that in order to get it started because it had not run for 3 years wa to let the oil give it an helping hand when all it has done is hinder.
  6. Thanks for all replies,i will report back when i have done some of the things suggested and taken some pics.
  7. It's a MS181 C Iis what it says on the box anyway.
  8. The oil was added three weeks ago after that i just left it but now i really need the saw for the logs. As for the brake ,i tried pulling it over with both on and off situations. The ignition module was gapped using a business card but that isn't the issue as it's getting a spark.
  9. Will get some pictures up on here as soon as,and will look at getting the Clutch drum off,to be honest one thing i noticed after having removed the muffler and turning the flywheel was a loud sucking noise like a carp rising up for a dog biscuit for any fishermen reading this,seems to be a lot of compression going on here.
  10. At the moment getting someone else to look at it is not an option unfortunately as i am in between jobs at the moment and funds are low .Nothing wrong with the clutch on inspection so ruled that one out.It isn't the Ergo Start model ,Will look on youtube for some ideas.Cheers for reply.
