ANSWER : Depending on the brand of line you use, Tygon line is self sealing but seems to shrink faster then factory supplied because of the ethanol in the gas. The stone gas filter is designed to fall to the lowest part of the tank, not stop the line from falling out.

ANSWER : I have had experience with both systems you are inquiring about. personally, I think you should get a Fluke, NOTHING even comes close, as I am sure you are aware, any extra cost is soon made up for by features and reliability. I haven’t had very good results using Virtual Instruments, they are OK, but.. very cumbersome, in use etc, you just cannot beat a “scope. Now I really recommend the Fluke Scope meter, they are just awesome, in every way.. I have had VERY good results and a cheap repair, when I sent a damaged meter back to Fluke, they reconditioned it and calibrated etc, and the cost was as i remember very reasonable, for what was done, so perhaps you would like to entertain that thought. You can always ask for a “Quote” before allowing repair to proceed, that way you have little to loose. There are many meters and instruments out there, and as you know, a man is only as accurate as his equipment, and I always recommend Fluke, as they are simply the best. Possibly a bit Pricey, they are always worth it. So go with your first instincts, which were indeed right on the money, Fluke all the way. As I said have a look at the Fluke Scope meter, and possibly treat yourself to a wonderful piece of equipment you’ll fast wonder how you ever did without it before.

ANSWER : If the saw has a EPA carb it will have anti tamper screws, these have a spline on them, not a screw driver slot, there is a special tool to adjust the jets part no. 530035560, check the web for sellers, both screws are fuel screws, not air screws, so the more you undo them the richer the mixture gets, the L screw will adjust the mixture from idle up to half throttle, the H screw will adjust from half throttle to max rpm, all saws today are set for the best emmissions not the best running so they are always set on the lean side, the settings as they are will be a good starting point, if the saw does not pick up clean inscrew the L screw a bit at a time until it does, be very carefull with the H screw as this can be leaned off too much and the saw will over rev and possibly seize, this should be do with a taco so as you know what the rvs are, it should not exceed 12500 rpm.it should aleays sound a little rich at maximum no load revs.

ANSWER : You need a rear wheel part# 71133MA. A place to look up this model would be at www.precisionope.com. Look up OEM parts section, in may be under Murray or Briggs & Stratton. Briggs bought out Murray out several years ago.Hope that helps.

ANSWER : So that sound’s like a pivot pin for a door hinge. What about using a 3 inch nail?

ANSWER : If it is surging you might need a new govenor spring or the choke might be sticking or carb might need adjusting. I know on a push mover when they surge I put on new gov spring and they run great.roundo4

ANSWER : Yes to check the regulator, use a Multimeter, set to Volts, now check, to see if there is any actual output directly out of the motor. There should be a 110 volt AC, reading.This Voltage will go into, the Controller Box, and should reappear on the “Other”side of the Controller, and should again be around 110Volts AC. This usually has a “Trigger” circuit, when a “Load” is plugged into any Socket, this should be detected, and the machine, ramp up, to supply the Current. look for where the Voltage stops, after it leaves the Generator,, that should be the area of your fault. Be careful.

If able get a service/repair manual, these have all the troubleshooting and repair advice that engineers use to service and repair.

Above is a link for a manual to help.

Basically, this is a “Reverse Motor” the “Motor” is spun, and it produces Voltage & Current. this goes into a Vsense, and a Vreg, and smoothed and conditioned, via the Controller, and then out to the mains sockets. Check for Disconnections, faulty, Controller, Check any all breakers & Fuses.

ANSWER : The water inlet needs a gasket like all hose connections. If its gone the pump may be starving for water.
