Did the fuel filter go on the thinner inside line? Also how long should you leave the return line

The line closest to the primer bulb is the return line and it just needs to pass into the tank far enough that it won't get pulled out if bumped. An inch is fine.

I have a pretty new t540 m3, can't have more then an hour or two of use and its driving me crazy. It will reliably start up from a cold start, but once warm it is a nightmare to start again. It takes a bunch of pulls, shuts off or bogs down and the issue is pretty persistent. I think Im going to have to take it in for warranty but I'm very annoyed that this new saw is this much trouble. Have you found any other m3 with this problem? Thanks for your video.

I have a question... if you drilled the hole in your lever closer to the point of rotation (fulcrum), that would let the 3/4" throw of the actuator swing the lever the desired amount. Was this not an option because the actuators didn't have enough power to push/pull a shorter lever? They seem to be fairly stout.
@TheGreasyShopRag
@TheGreasyShopRag Күн бұрын
As I recall, the actuator couldn't handle it and I needed the extra leverage. Recently I added an actuator to the 26" top box. I'll show that in my annual toolbox update this fall.

After disconnecting and cleaning out an auto-tune carb, is there a procedure for it to "re-learn" the mixture(s) or does it just know from previous data and run ok? Not having the software I usually refer them to a dealer, fearing it wouldn't run right if I didn't re-program it.

Ok Scott a rookie question. On the piston how do determine between excessive wear and actual metal transfer, would you physically have to feel it ? From the picture you showed how did you determine it was more wear than actual scoring. Of course i realize experience helps significantly but just a curiosity question. As always another fantastic video brother and thank you. Take care sir.
@TheGreasyShopRag
@TheGreasyShopRag 4 күн бұрын
I guess it depends on whos doing the talking when you're doing the listening. In other words, the same words can mean different things. On the intake side of the piston heavy wear would appear as a shiny surface on the piston skirt. This is from dirt and any original machine marks will be gone. On the exhaust side I consider heavy wear to be any vertical lines that have no depth...you can't feel them but they are visible. Sometimes only as different colors but sometimes as what appears to be lines. Heat, dirt and carbon could be contributing factors. Scoring is vertical lines or grooves and metal transfer is the same thing only worse. Metal is being gouged out and transferring between the piston and cylinder. Heat and lack of lubrication and/or an expanding piston can be contributing factors. A foreign object could also cause this. When I see a piston/cylinder with "excess" wear I have to start determining if repair is a worthwhile effort. Most of the time people want to just get as much more use out of it till it dies, then replace the whole saw.
