How old is the saw Sounds like it could be that the fuel pipe is perished its sucking air through the pipe into the carb sounds like the problem pull the pipe out of the tank with a pliers its an all in one self sealing pipe unit Thread the new one through the tank pull through untill it reaseals its self reattach to the carb push on a new tank fuel filter that might solve your problem

Thanks for the offer edd I have just got off the phone to keeans now and according to them there is no entry in their register for my guns or from gwent police They don't usually have anything from gwent mainly South Wales police which makes sense I had better get in touch with headquarters in cwmbran on Monday morning and see what the hell is going on here
