Since it's slow I'll pick ya brain.

Craftsman is still acting funny. Starts and idles great with no problem. Will go to high throttle now but for only a second or two then bogs out. Pressure tested the carb where the fuel line goes on and it held 10 psi steady for over a minute or two no problem.

Vacuum tested the fuel tank and it did bleed down over about 45 seconds but the primer bulb sounded like a tea kettle whistling. Any thoughts on this. I'm going to check IPL to make sure I didn't connect the primer bulb wrong.

Tank vent?

 

[jimdad07]

Yucccck!!

That's what I thought. I may need a good case of amnesia to forget about what this thread has come to.


I bet Dan is the pivot man.

Sounds like its running out of fuel ? Primer bulb have a small crack in it ?

That primer bulb might be sucking a little air. Check out the walbro website, they have great info on these carbs. You should be able to tell from there if you have it together right. Nowadays I get rid of the primer bulbs.

It takes 10 mins running or more to airlock a saws fuel tank. The likely culprit is the fuel lines, pickup filter or the carb its self. Will add that the primer bulb is part and parcel along with the fuel lines and all fittings, they have to be absolutely air tight.

Yous guys is just sick ! :msp_rolleyes:

 

[pioneerguy600]

The lines have to fit absolutely tight on all the fittings, its much easier for air to leak into the lines than it is for the fuel to be lifted to the carb.

 

[BigDaddyR]

Doesn't appear to but I'll have to double check it. Would that affect the operation at high throttle though? I agree it's not getting enough fuel but is it a vacuum problem in the tank? I don't think it has a vented fuel cap so may try to pull the tank vent and clean it and see if that helps any.

 

[BigDaddyR]

I will say that I do see air bubbles in the line when I prime it. I'll work on figuring out where that may be coming from. It may be the carb. I rebuilt it and probably didn't fix the problem or made a problem. LOL I guess that's why they call it experience.
