Saturday ariel bench??? Cleaned both coils and replaced the dual function China capacitor with US made unit. Even made a portable tow rig for pressurized water. Worked great.

Even got to use my hot stapler for the 3rd time repairing a crack in the cover for the AC. Love this tool.... I even look for stuff to use it on!
Sunday funday! This is aboot 15ft from the bench.... that count???
2nd shift managers at work, 2000 Polaris Trailblazer. Starter went for a f**k off. Along with the original chain and sprockets.
Both steering post bushings getting upgraded and a few other small bits. Got to use the hot stapler on the rear fender plastic here also. The T-REX tape covering the cracks was just pedestrian....... NFG.

The last one on my bench was a Poulan 2000. Nice little saw, ran very well but wouldn't shut off other than using the choke. Thought it was the kill switch but turned out to be an open winding in the ignition module. I put another module in and now it runs just fine and shuts off with the switch. This one also has a good chain oiler..

"Société Co-Op" is French for something like "cooperative enterprise". Sounds sort of communist, guess they liked the red?
Waterloo is a town in the French speaking part of Belgium, just south of Brussels. It's where Napoleon was defeated in 1815.
Quite a chance that saw spent some time in my country

Yeah the China clones that I’ve worked on had two as well. The Honda does have two grooves on the idle jet, have only ever seen the one o-ring though. IPL shows one o-ring as well. Maybe they intended to run two but later decided it wasn’t necessary. Can’t imagine they’re saving a bunch of money on a part that small but you never know.
Ballistic.... I tore down that carb on that Honda outboard I had hanging off the side of 1 of the portable benches and it had only 1 o-ring as well. Strange with the differences......
If I didn’t know any better I’d say you’ve seen that video…
I seen that. Made an interesting discovery as I recall.

Nope- don't watch the mundane.
Novice lumberjack made a video. Believe he was working on a 2100 with a stripped top cover screw. JB weld was involved. It was cringeworthy to say the least.
My local tree service friend dropped off two 2511T's, said they won't adjust and hold a tune...
One didn't seem to have any problems...the other had issues...
I resealed the cylinder/base only to discover the crankcase was leaking as well.
I was able to get the crankcase and the cylinder/base sealed up, corrected the leaky connection at the intake (to the cylinder), replaced the fuel pump diaphragm (seemed a little stiff) and it still wouldn't start and run correctly. I was getting ready to start swapping the coil and carburetor from the good runner to try and narrow it down when I check the spark plug...there was a lot of carbon accumulated between the body and the extended insulator, the plug just plain looked bad. I swapped plugs and all problems were resolved...I even had another new plug on hand so once I can get the chains sharpened he will be back in business.
These saws are really fairly easy to work on, but I never did figure out how to replace the fuel line and the purge return. Those lines are very cleverly tucked away in a region I could not access. I did pressurize the fuel line just to make sure it was O.K. fairly early in the testing phases.
Do all 2511T's have a removable bit in the transfers?
It was a busy afternoon.

Not exactly on a bench- but I have been having some "fun" with this thing of late.
Seems the latest posts have not exactly been on a bench per say 
on my temporary paint bench if you will, is the rims off our focus for a little refurbishin, Along with some rust spots along the bottom edge of car!
on my temporary paint bench if you will, is the rims off our focus for a little refurbishin, Along with some rust spots along the bottom edge of car! Mark are you talking about a homey ol blue?
I had an old blue homelite I saved from salvage. I got out there and checked ,but it is not an ol blue.
I was given about 4 of those lately, trying to get at least one runner out of the bunch..
The "Old Blue" version is a darker, non-metallic blue. All this one needs is a clutch cover.
This one hasn't made it to the bench yet, still on the shelves awaiting its turn.
