Top 3 Reasons Your Chainsaw Won't Start!

1. No fuel! - This is usually caused by fuel sitting in the carburetor for longs periods of time, causing the ports to clog. Disassemble and clean the carburetor to remedy the issue.

2. No Air! - A dirty air filter is the cause of this issue. Remove the filter and clean with compressed air. Or just replace it

3. No Spark! - The most common cause of this is a faulty spark plug or a dirty ignition system. Replace the spark plug. Then blow out the ignition system with compressed air. Sometime it’s necessary to disassemble and clean the points on the flywheel and magneto with a fine sand paper

This also applies to other gas powered equipment. If you need any assistance or services visit our website http://fullthrottlerepairs.com/ 

 

Stop Stripping...Screws

One of the biggest mistakes we see from people new to repairs is stripped screws. The main reason for this is not having the right size tool for the job, especially when it comes to Phillips/+ style fasteners. Most Phillips drivers will have a PH with a number after it indicating the size, however some have nothing at all. Not only will the right size not strip your fastener, it will be much easier to unscrew. The proper size should have almost not play when you wiggle it in either direction. You can pick up a decent Phillips driver set under $15 at your local hardware. Trust us; this will be the best $15 you ever spent if you do your own repairs.

Electronics + Dust = Failure

 

With the cold weather we tend to stay indoors more and our electronic gadgets get heavy use. Combined with a increase in dust, greater temperature fluctuations your electronics get quite a work out. One factor that leads to the most failures is dust! Electronics use cooling systems of parts that generate large amounts of heat. These are basically a series of metal fins that increase the surface area and help dissipate heat. If dust collects in these fins it can render them useless. Here is a picture of a clogged cooling system.

Take time at least once a month and blow out your electronics with compressed are and it will greatly increase the life and function of your electronics. If you need any help feel free to post or call Full Throttle LLC at 419-973-1005. Thanks
