Dropped off the wife's car for an oil change and grabbed dinner while out. Came home and started on trying to diagnose this TS500 Stihl demo saw, the fuel injected one. Its got intermittent spark but it all comes from the computer; no standard coil. It'll pop every now and then but won't start. Moved to the box of TS420s and dove in. Out of Two junkers, I built one runner. Hopefully it holds long enough to get the TS500 back from the dealer. I wouldn't care so much but the crew on my job needs a saw right now and I won't let them give me excuses.

Why you playing in the sewer ? :potstir:
 
Well, there is a Dolmar 6100 thread going on, where someone question my motives by posting there - but I try my best to avoid it developing into a fight. Sorry about that! :D:yoyo:

HHhhhhmmmmmmmmm..................................

what to do today ??

mebe go fishin ??
 
Robin,,,,521 oiler,,CC more oil ??

Yep....the flat blade screw in behind allen plug up through the bottom of the saw.......but if you're having weak oiling you should pull the chain catcher (three little screws under clutch cover) and check the bar oil filter screen behind for crud and also make sure that the the rubber tube behind that is still hooked up........rare.... but sometimes they fall off.

Morning guys. It's a bit early to tell, but I think it's going to be another hot, sunny day on the west coast. That's how our weather works here. Heat wave July and august, 24/7 rain the rest of the year... :msp_thumbdn:

Hopefully I can finish that stihl off today. I don't think it's possible to vacuum test this one.... The carb is held on with a rubber hose and a hose clamp... No way to seal it. Seeing how bad this one is to work on, I can't imagine now bad a mini mac is.... I better watch what I say, I think Jerry still has my shipping address.. :eek2:
