The simple things that make sense when you see them... you open the plastic parts bags by drawing the bag under the blade, not drawing the blade across the bag and cutting whatever the bag is sitting on. I never thought of this, but seeing it makes so much sense. Brilliant!!
For what it's worth, no doubt this has happened to other smaller operators, who aren't super intelligent on the wrench and mechanical side like myself. I finally 'discovered' what my thing with my small tools were this winter, lack of oxygen (flooding out of the tools when laying idle). Diaphram parts in carbs, that were in brand new tools, which were finally discounted and sold off this year as very good deals to the customer, . . . it turns out, at least two of these small tools will need new kits, or probably just new carb's (for example my new top handle). Simple fix in short term was to turn the throttle adjustment screw a little, which kind of gets over my problem for a while. My tools will idle, without being flooded with fuel as they sit down. Needless to say, this problem has shown up now as the tools have had multiple tanks of gas through them, as I've gotten used to this nice new smaller Husky tools. All of which were nanufactured back in 2018, 2019 etc. And basically sat in shops ignored largely, as these machinery, agricultural types of supplier outlets dealt with all manner of other stuff while the pandemic, and shut down's had happened. Just wondering Donnie if this was a thing elsewhere in parts of the world. Even new tools sitting on shelves over extended amounts of time, just could start to have these aging problems. Like everything else, I 'wild goose chased' on this quite a bit, . . and the above explains most of my problems. I've moved the throttle adjustment for now, and I'll probably replace carb's out on these tools as soon as I get around to it.

A lot of people call these saws trash in my area I have picked up many from between 5 and 10 dollars. New gas lines and rebuild the carburetor, they cut firewood all day definitely better than a $500 saw that does it it just a little faster. Good fuel and a muffler mod they do cut faster
@@TheGreasyShopRag I’ve thought about these a lot since there are so many haters out there, but a few who swear by them. I think it stems from them being marketed and sold at big box stores as low-priced saws. Owners then just treat them as throwaways and of course they’re impossible to start because the owners didn’t bother to take care of them. They’re available around here for free usually.
G’day Scott and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 Erica put me on to your channel which is good because I own a few Husqvana equipment and have found them very good, love the channel and the way that you diagnose the problems associated with these machines well done and I look forward to watching you look after yourself kind regards from an old bloke John PS I love the insignia of the rat with the chain saw great!
Nice fix Scott. If I don’t have a definite plan to use a two stroke tool the next day or so, I dump the gas back into my can and run just enough of the factory canned premixed stuff into the tool and run it long enough to get the fuel completely through the engine. Works for me to avoid old fuel issues. I feed my old two stroke gas to a 96 dodge ram every 6 mo or so. Laaaaaaater
Good one. I have the same saw. It has trouble idling. I’ll take it apart someday. I didn’t see you remove or install a primer bulb line. Maybe your fast for me or it doesn’t have one, 🤷🏻♂️ Have a great day. 👍🏻👋
I've got a new to me minty 52ish year old Poulan 25D that I will be servicing. Initial PSI was 90. I discovered a couple of loose bolts. I tightened down those bolts, and the PSI jumped to 120. I bet the compression will jump a little more once I service the saw, and run it a little.
Ahhhhh a Case of the Sausage Casing Fuel Lines Sucking In On Themselves Not Allowing Fuel Flow 😮 I’m Telling You That Factory Fuel Hose Is Crap Sounds Like a New Saw Now Scott Excellent Repair 😀
Those four strokes will mess you up all the time Scott, even more so when you are dealing with linkages. They can also be the root cause of fumble finger syndrome. I have been known to speak the rare known language of BS in some comment sections as well. 😉 Either way, great fix. Definitely would like a video on the home made tools you have made over the years. Later
If I need to replace a fuel line or purge bulb I automatically replace everything. That way I have a baseline for the next time the equipment comes to me. Since it’s already apart I think it makes more sense than having a comeback. Also, I only replace with clear purge bulbs - I want to easily see what’s going on.
That seems like a solid plan. Sometimes I feel I need to balance shop rates and parts costs to try to keep a repair bill at an acceptable level on a low cost machine. I haven't "seen" you in a while. Welcome back!
I have a P3314WS and it’s a beast. I put a 16 inch bar on it with a full chisel chain and it runs right with my Husqvarna.Are these woodshark models normally 42cc’s?
Out in the bush, it doesn't matter. Resistor plugs only do one thing: they reduce radio interference. Whether you choose a resistor (like a RCJ8) or non-resistor plug (CJ8), the saw will run equally well.
I read a Husqvarna service bulletin one time that said all their equipment used digital ignition coils and use of a non-resistor plug can damage them. I've accepted that and never gave it another thought.
@@TheGreasyShopRag Hey, I don't mind admitting I could be wrong! Traditionally, resistor plugs only offered one advantage: reducing radio interference. This goes way back, back to the days when ignition systems used points and condenser. There are government regulations around this that manufacturers must follow. But if Husqvarna says you must use resistor plugs because their ignition coils are a bit touchy, I'd pay attention to that. Ignition coils can be pricey. Great channel!
Scott what are your initial starting point on your jets on these Strato Pullon Calamities? Ive tried about every configuration with little success on these. Older one's no problem but Stratos 🤔
I kinda shoot from the hip between 1 and two turns. Based on what I'm feeling for response I then make adjustments to get it to start. I don't think there is any one good recommendation except find out what the factory calls for.
I quit taking poulan I sold my pile of 18 of them for 80 dollars . I tell people they r worth 3 $ . For the spark plug and the pull rope rest is scrap😂

They just need lines and diaphragm

The only "problem" with them is that the people buying them usually have no idea how to maintain them.

Thats a great system for keeping the fuel fresh.

around 15:34 you can see me putting the original line onto the carb. It must have felt ok.

I know we have made the same mistakes and just laugh it off 😊😊😊. No big deal day after day of it😮
Enjoyable informative video!
Thanks
Thanks for watching!
I have the same snapon impack and love it, only wish I had bought two while I had the money, love there air tools also
I gotta tell ya, I don't miss being tethered to an air hose although the power was sometimes nice.
The knuckle draggers did that on purpose. lol. Were the primer bulb lines ok? Poulan saws have their own sounds
Yes and actually I think the one primer line had been replaced at some point. It looked different.
Ahhhhh a Case of the Sausage Casing Fuel Lines Sucking In On Themselves Not Allowing Fuel Flow 😮 I’m Telling You That Factory Fuel Hose Is Crap Sounds Like a New Saw Now Scott Excellent Repair 😀
I think its supposed to be ethanol resistant but sometimes it fuel flow resistant.
I stick with genuine Tygon and never have any problems.
@@Rein_Ciarfella Thats good stuff.

I haven't start the video yet but have started a list of things I currently use.
Great job, that EPA/CARB Tier 4 or 5 fuel line sure stinks 💩, the liner always detaches & pulls out.
I haven't decide if the liner pulls out or the casing shrinks. Either way, you're right, it stinks.
EPA is out to destroy America

From the looks of the tygon(?) and inside of the carb it looks like a case of the ethanol death 😢. P.S.- the Canadian She Fixen Saw Gal sent me 😊
She does a great job but I feel she is just getting started and its only going to get better!
looking along with you, 150psi surprised me; I figured the ring would be held in place with schmutz (did I get that right?? 😉😉 )
Yes, schmutz. Yer a fast learner! 🙂
I have a P3314WS and it’s a beast. I put a 16 inch bar on it with a full chisel chain and it runs right with my Husqvarna.Are these woodshark models normally 42cc’s?
I know they make a whole range of sizes but I never bothered to match the name to the cc. I'll have to start paying attention to that.
Can you please explain why you would use resistor plugs in a saw? I would think that a non resistor would be preferred 😢. Help me out with knowledge 😅

Thanks Scott I'll give that a try. Honestly I don't think the factory would know where to set these guys lol. Enjoy your videos very much 👍
Husqvarna make those. My dad used pouland when I was younger.they were pretty good saw back then.
The old metal Poulans were great!
I havevthat saw and I replaced all the lines and a crab kit
Yep, thats the one thing all of these benefit from.
Where do you get Poulan parts? We have no dealers in Canada .
Poulan parts can be obtained through your Husqvarna dealer...at least here in the states thats the way it is.
I quit taking poulan I sold my pile of 18 of them for 80 dollars . I tell people they r worth 3 $ . For the spark plug and the pull rope rest is scrap😂
I figure the labor rate is the same no matter what I'm working on as long as the customer is willing to pay.
disgusting four-stroke engine 😅
They swim in their own filth 😞
