Sure is quiet in here....do I need to start a fight?

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.

Not real likely. Could be the carb needle is set to low ? Or sucking air into a line some where ?

Sure would. Try bypassing the bulb if you can, it'll make it a little tougher to start up but it may take care of your issue. Like Jerry said, tank vent issues usually take a bit longer to show up.

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.

Okay, I didn't know it would take this long for a vacuum issue to show up or air lock. I haven't let the saw run that long at idle to see if it would have that issue but starts and idles great.

I will eliminate the bulb and see how it does. I replaced the fuel line but not the ones going to and from primer bulb. This saw starts very easily so if I have to pull a few more times to test it no big deal.

Fuel line from tank to carb is new, fuel filter is new. Most likely then it's the lines, bulb, or the carb and I need to pull the plugs-clean-replace.

Nite Jerry.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll look at it some more tomorrow with these suggestions and try to work it out. Really, really, really want to get this thing gone. But, if I figure it out it'll be a lesson I won't forget anytime soon.

I hear ya there. Power goes out at work for me just delays the inevitable.

Know if anyone in our area looking to sell or have an extra air compressor they might be willing to sell. Looking for something that will put out about 10 SCFM and about a 60 Gallon tank? Step son took his with him and with the wife and I both needing air it's time for a compressor.

Went through this with one of them J'Red 70E thingies awhile back. Pulled the welch plug and cleaned it out there and ran good after that. It idled and and reved great, till you put it under a load. Now when I do any more carbs that'll always be done.
Most of the time I just looked at the little silver cap and said Ehh............live and learn.

Sounds like a winner to me. Seems like the same problem that I had with the Poulan I redid for my step son and I just bought a carb on that one and put it on and tuned it. Pull the plug it is then.
