    Hi from Australia... after taking the top off, I could see the fuel line had perished/split where it came up from the tank below and entered the carburettor. Looked in fuel tank, saw there was an excess of two or three centimetres, so figured I could pull a centimetre or so through. I'd never have figured out how to de-link the throttle linkage! . Your video helped so much, thank you! I didn't know how to get the carby out far enough to pull the split bit of fuel line off and slide the new bit over. Your excellent instructions saved me a trip to the local repair shop and a hundred bucks, or so I suspect! It took a bit longer, cos I didn't have a suitable hex screw driver, but managed slowly with an allen key. Thanks again! They are VERY good saws- have had mine through at least ten chains , two bars, and a sprocket.

    Just repaired one and they aren't too bad to work on. To diagnose a no start I have a squeeze bottle of mixed fuel that I squirt down the carb and then give the rope a pull. If it runs for a second that tells me that it has spark and compression then I will investigate the fuel system. I always pull the muffler on 2 cycle equipment to look at the piston too.

    My 460 stopped dead the other day. wouldn't restart. after removing the intake cover I could see she was wet inside the case. Spark tester was showing spark. then after pushing on the primer bulb I could see fuel seeping at the carb inlet tube and then realized my thumb was wet. primer bulb cracked also. she's 10 yrs old and I guess all the plastic lines have served their time. I have all new fuel lines, filter bulb carb kit coming from h&L $55.00 in total but hey she will be good as new. love these educational vids. thank you for your time and knowledge and sharing that knowledge with others.

    Geeeezzzzz ! I have an older original 55 Rancher made in 2004 which has been trouble free and easy to service [stuff like the fuel lines and air filter is all that has been touched]. Looks like Husky really cheapened their 455 model and made it MUCH harder to work on. Mine did go under water one time during a flood. It ran ok when I fished it out but the coil went dead a few days later,..guess it got water saturated and shorted out. It has the original 20" bar on it and I have went through 4 or 5 chains but that is nothing. I never leave fuel or oil in a saw when I finish using it is the key to problem free service.

    On my 450 I just pulled out the carb. It should not be that freakin hard to pull it out. They should have made it easier to service. I was worried I would cause an intake leak as I struggled getting it in and out but it runs fantastic after I cleaned the carb.

    The first thing I do with any non runner is check compression then if that’s ok put a drop of fuel straight into the cyl , if it fires you know it has spark so it’s a fuel problem , could be other problems also etc

    Just a quick tip, on the 455 and 460, I find it easier to remove and replace the carb if I take the whole handle assembly off. Just 3 screws and the whole engine assembly can be taken out of the handle. Makes it a lot easier getting to the bottom 2 screws holding the carb on.

    I replaced my carburetor with a Walbo kit from Amazon. The Rancher 455 fired up on first pull. However, when i pushed the choke in the saw was still running fast and when i squeezed the throttle it would bog down like it was trying to stall. What did I get wrong on the install? Do I need to adjust the carburetor?
