Thanks for your comment! I still have the saw, but it's still not quite right. It has problems with flooding and I think I may just have to try and find another carburetor for it. I'll definitely post another video when it's finally fixed.

Does anybody know how to get the pull start assembly back together on these? I'm fixing one for a friend and the rope broke on me so I had to replace it and I can't figure out how to get the spring back in. I've been very close but there's a little nub that's part of the molding and it stops the very end of the spring from going down all the way which caused the wheel to not seat properly. I'm wanting to grind off the nub but I don't know if it has a purpose I don't wanna ruin it

Sounds like something is clogged up in the primer or a stuck check valve. If your primer bulb is part of the carb, there will be a plastic "purge body" directly beneath it. Sometimes the check valves in that body get stuck. You might have to replace the purge body. If your primer bulb is separate and connected with fuel lines, just squeeze the tabs on the back of the bulb assembly to pop it out and replace with a new one. Make sure to remember which hose goes to which port on the primer, they don't work right if the lines are hooked up backwards.

Rebuild kits are plentiful, I buy mine from eBay. I believe the carb on mine is a Walbro WA series. Unfortunately, i think mine needs the whole carb replaced, so I will have to track down a parts saw. These are actually Poulan saws, but I forget the equivalent Poulan model number.
