Royboy Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I've been given a old Stihl saw that was seized, I put a new crank, piston and head on it and replaced every seal. I've cleaned the carb. Now I've had it running then it will cut out, then I'll pull it a couple of more times and there fuel being thrown out of the exhaust ! It's like the carb is just dumping to much fuel in the carb ?? Has anyone got any ideas ?? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

db135 Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Check that the diaphragm in the carburettor hasn't gone hard as it controls the float needle if it's gone hard it will just keep flooding the carburetor I've got a old sthil 08s it just kept flooding and soaking the plug new diaphragm sorted it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delwint Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) I'm sure someone who is more mechanically minded on the forum may be able to help. That was just my first thought from experience in the past. A Stihl fitter would know what was wrong in no time. If one of mine ever seizes they are generally a good few years old and by the time you've messed about it's as economical for me to buy a new one Edited April 1, 2017 by Delwint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortune Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) Here is a link to the drawing of the carb. http://tillotson.ie/kits-parts/illustrated-parts-lists/ Click on the HL carb parts list and a PDF will open. Scroll 4 down to page 4. To test the needle valve. You put a pressure pump on the fuel line and the carb should hold up about about half a bar of pressure Edited April 1, 2017 by fortune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treetop Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Check the read valve is seating correctly, most common fault on a 2 stroke , as it only needs a small crumb to form a gap and it won't seal properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortune Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Check the read valve is seating correctly, most common fault on a 2 stroke , as it only needs a small crumb to form a gap and it won't seal properly These engines dont have read valves. they are piston ported. There arent all that many 2ts that are readed. it's more a motorbike thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory... Under the two nuts holding the air filter cover on, they may be wingnuts or might be 10mm M6 nuts. Remove the filter housing, should be two 10mm M6 nuts. Remove the handle using a TX27 torx bit, the throttle control rod and choke control should lift out with the handle. Carefully slide the carb off the studs.
