I made a 12 inch chain for

Haha, that's a lot of 10-10s

enough plenty, dad thinks I should sell some, but they are worth more to me for parts.

Well if you ever find a good looking pro 10-10 and don't want it I will take it off your hands!

Might of sucked something up from the tank Partially blocking the inlet

I do remember noticing what looked like fuel drilling out between the layers of the carburetor. Is that supposed to happen?

I have three, I'll dig them up to see what I can spare

The carb shouldnt be leaking from anywhere

 

[Kensie1988]

I saw an old C-5 carb post about those old tillotson carbs and a guy said it's common to see some fuel wicking through the gasket, is that true? I also took the carb apart and noticed the screws holding it together wasn't even hand tight. So I took everything apart and put it back together and tried it again with the same result, runs on choke and dies without choke.

Hmmm maybe need to check the metering lever make sure its high enough. Its bot getting adequate fuel make sure the fuel line isnt plugged.

 

[Kensie1988]

I have Tygon hoses in so I can see the fuel going but it isn't going where it should be, I'm going to try and post a video, you might not be able to see it though

Working on it, and yes, I'm pretty much tapped out for now lol

Having picked up some higher quality older saws recently I am considering offloading a few of the ones I have currently. Just need to have time to clean them up and take pics.

Nice! And welcome back to the thread! Also I see you have worked on a few C-5s by your signature, I'm having a problem with mine, if you read back a few posts you can see my problem. I would appreciate some insight from someone who has been in quite a few of them.

 

[Boomer 87]

Your getting the spitback out of the carb bc your having to run it on the choke. It's gotta be a carb issue, take the bewdle out and make sure theres nothing in the inlet, double check your diaphragm postions. Its got to be carb related. Is it a new fuel filter?

Haven't done much but very basic work on them.

Did you put a carb kit in there or just cleaned what's already in there?

Working on it, I have it all broken down, trying to replace the needle and seat, but I have to grind down a 5/16 socket to get down into the carb and get the seat out.
