I haven't worked on a saw in a few days. I need to order some parts, and I've gotta drop a pretty heavy chunk of change on a rotary table for my bridgeport

 

[LonestarStihl]

Well now your backs going to hurt, cause you just pulled landscaping duty

Well I put my carburetor back in my 306a that's been soaking in seafoam since Sunday, I fired it up and the same thing is still happening. So I stripped it down to the seals and taped off the exhaust and intake. It will hold pressure but won't hold more the 7lbs of vacuum. So I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Wow piston alone?

 

[Kensie1988]

Yep, so it seems that holding a steady vacuum at 6-7 psi is ok. So I don't know, I guess it's the carburetor

 

[Boomer 87]

Piston kit but still too rich for my blood. The meteor will work fine. Lol

I hear you. Never heard a bad thing about Meteor anyways. Looking forward to hearing it roar after your done.

How's that 024 you're working on?

 

[Boomer 87]

Or swap it with the dayton and see if the issues follow each carb.
