I recently got a poulan pro 46cc saw at sears for $100.....it was used but the tag said "reconditioned"
when I got home I wanted to start it before converting it.....that was two days ago.
I CANNOT for the life of me get it to start.
Compression....great
spark...yes
piston and cyl look new, no carbon at all .
It will run on fuel sprayed into the carb.
The carb doesnt seem to be drawing fuel.(clear fuel line) Ive throughly cleaned the carb(dissembled) rechecked the neddle settings,diaphram has no tears and is not stiff.pluse hole is clear from the engine to the carb.
Ive even put on a new wt234 I got off of ebay and that didnt draw either....what gives???
oh yea, I checked the fuel line for cracks or leaks, and removed the fuel line clunk/filter just in case that was clogged.
Im at a loss here[

Any help would be great. thanks guys!
