« on: February 17, 2023, 04:17:48 pm »
hi, my chainsaw is leaking gas from the place shown in the picture.  Is there supposed to be a tube or something there?  where does it go to and how can I fix it?  Thanks very much for the help

this is where the tank vent tube attatches and has somr grub
screws to stop it from leaking out while at the same time allowing
air back into the fuel tank to prevent a vacume lock

Missing tank vent line and grubs. OEM used 2 small grubs.

One I made for local.  Push in grubs dont screw in. I just made one from a screw cut off and pushed in new line.
