I got it ordered...... and some other stuff

I'm looking for the service instructions for the ND. I can't find the most important part of the instructions. You're supposed to pre-load the diaphragm before tightening the cover screws.

Morning folks. The 260Pro pops on full choke, and starts on run, but then dies after a few seconds of running. I gave it a new piston and rings, new fuel hose and filter, new impulse line, and tried swapping the tank vent from another saw. Even tried a brand new Zama carb, and it still won't run. My mix is a couple months old, but it's e-free 91 so it shouldn't be bad. I'll mix up some fresh later tonight just to be sure, but what else could I be missing? I wonder if I tore the new fuel hose when I put it in? Hmmmm....

Don't know about any 'pre-load' on that. I just reinstalled the carb., primed with a dribble several times and it ran. Did two so far.

Late Morning everybody. Have a good one.

Well, it is a Stihl. Massive air leak maybe?
2 month old e-free mix isn't that old. I've used it a year old with no issues.

I'll put the vac and pressure gauges back on it after work tonight. I checked them both before disassembly, but not after putting it back together.

 

[SteveSS]

Evening gents. Getting some rain at our house right now. No luck on the 260. Vac and pressure are still good. Put a new fuel line and same symptom. I'll play with it some more tomorrow.

Hope I can figure it out

The old bantam had been blessed with a fairly new
3/8 rim sprocket..... it had a Homelite bar and 3/8 chain on it
I can use my .058 roller nose bar......

Carl's 1050 looks to have .404 chain on it

 

[SteveSS]

It's just a slow, gentle rain here. If it lasts all night it'll do some good.

 

[lumberjackchef]

Did you do the vacuum test with the intake and impulse installed or just on the short block?

 

[SteveSS]

Intake and impulse installed.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Morning folks they got us working crazy hours.

 

[Hinerman]

Morning everybody. Have a great day.

 

[Hedgerow]

Drizzle here..
But steady..

 

[sawnami]
