Right it won’t do a vac leak or anything. Dealer told me he had a saw that he knew had an air leak but every time I would pressure/vac test everything help fine. He said an old mechanic taught him the gas trick and that’s the only way he found it. Was a hairline fracture on the bottom but it would only show when the saw warmed up more

When I check a auto engine, I do a leak down test, from that test it tell me where my leak would be, head area, piston area, etc.. If a valve leak, I'd pull the heads and pour brake cleaner in each combustion chamber and see where it goes, I do the same with a new or rebuilt head before installing.

Found that the 702 was sucking some chips into the carb, factory airfilter seals failing.

So I got a bit creative

I couldn't do that, that where the saw rest against my leg.

Yeah that is the downfall.

Not many options with that carb placement.

Someone on eBay saling off a 5200 by the parts. Almost a complete saw.

Wonder if the game warden would say this also is illegal to use in a game feeder during hunting season.

SPCA would sue you for giving the deer diabetes
