Chainsaw Repair

put new primer bulb on and was able to prime gas to carb properly,but the sticker on the machine says pump 10 times and i watched how much gas was going into the carb and it was like enough gas to start a 632 BB chevy,so after geting it unflooded it started and ran good again,now i go and start cutting logs and the chain got so tight it would not move,so  i removed the brake spring to see if that was the cause and it did the same thing after 2 logs,so readjusted again,2 times before it finnally continued to cut,any help would be appreciated on the problem of the chain tightening on its own,does this have an auto adjust,by looking at it i would think no,but thanks for any info,by the way when i got this saw from the garbage it had a broken front handle and the bar was bent to heck like you wouldnt believe,iam thinking the chain kept tightening on the previos owner and he wipped it at a tree because he was pissed,

The purge bulb does not pump fuel into the carb. It pulls fuel through the carb and pumps it back into the tank to purge air from the lines.   If it's pumping fuel into the carb you have it connected backwards.

it says IN on the primer bulb and i have that hooked to the line comming from the tank, but i will check again,it has been getting good oil to the chain and when the saw sits it leaves an oil puddle,would also like to fix that,thanks for the help,and could use more info on the oil leak when sitting,thanks

i would think it is just like all the fuel pumps i deal with, where IN is from the supply and OUT is to the demand,but it wouldnt suprise me,but when i pump the primer bulb why wouldnt it  take from the carb and pump into the tank,thanks

thanks magnum,so should i reverse the lines on the bulb,where IN will be the carb line and OUT will be the tank line,thanks, any info on the puddle of oil when it sits not running
