I'm trying to decide on wether to put my Dolmar back together...probably smarter choice. Or if I want to take the mini mac 6 apart and start getting into it.

This little top handles are apparently a can of worms, you should probably start on it and when you g t frustrated you can start back on your dolmar, if your working on two then you can move back and forth while your waiting on parts or get frustrated.

Mmmm that's a good point. That happens a lot with me. Between frustration and ADHD I like to move around a bunch. I've heard poor things about the mini macs and working on them too [emoji20]. But it's currently my only mac and it has great history and I love too handle saws

I need to find a decent ms200t or ms192. It would go everywhere with me

Alpina makes a neat little too handle saw but they are pretty rare. @lomestarStihl you should get a Stihl 08S or S10

@Kensie1988, did you ever change fuel line and filter, if not try this, start saw upright with the air filter and cover off watch the fuel line, tip the saw while still watching the fuel line looking for air bubbles in the fuel line indicating a fuel line sucking air

I will try this today after work, if it's pulling good then Fossil suggested soaking the carb in sea foam for a few days, he said he has had carbs that he had replaced everything in, even Welch plugs and they still weren't running right, so he soaked it in sea foam and it fixed the problem.

Also while I do that I'm going to pull everything down to the crank case and cylinder and pressurize it. That's if your friend doesn't figure out what the problem is. Be sure to tell him it only races hard on its right side, when it's on it's left side it only speeds up a little.

Y'all are right maybe I should do a classic. I just don't know about using such a beautiful saw as a primary worker

But I do really like top handle saws a lot. So whatever top handle stuff y'all need to move just let me know
