Ok. No problem.

No luck with this?

OK. I wish you all the luck.

Reason I rather use the used old ones is that the ones I tried from after market left a lot to desire in quality and performance. I put in 30 or so and I had only one or two of them that worked well.

Used original.

How about that... I got out after writing this as a customer came and needed a ignition replaced on a 254... Talk about coincidence. Almost spookey!

I think this could be a ignition problem. On 262/254/257 it was not as common as later models, but it did happen. I changed out a couple hundred the past ten years...

For testing carbs inlet needle and check leaks all you need is a hose and a glass of fuel. With mouth you get positive and negative pressure, bite to hold it... No need to buy a kit to test once or twice in a life time. My kit is one I found in a dealers box that is from later 50's. I am now...

Yes, it could be indicating a leak. Shifting position on saw can sometimes help provoke a fault. Side to side to see crank seals, front tilt to see cylinder/carb leak. It is not a absolute test or absolutely without a doubt certain way, but it finger points sometimes.. Pressure testing carb is...

When you have these running right and start hot you put it in throttle loch position and no choke. If you drop start or knee start you activate brake before pulling.

If there is any doubt what so ever hose is not OK it is to be replaced. Leaking carbs usually make the saw perform different. If welch plug is bad it can flood, but that is a rare issue, I never seen on HDA. Shaft leakage, needle leak, bad seats, bad needles, membranes, gaskets and butter fly...

If there is a air leak it will go up uncontrolled in rpm. If it misses ignitions on idle it has interment spark..

If plug is wet something isn't right. Usually it has to do with the sparkling parts. I don't use "R" plugs in these saws. They don't like them. I put in several hundred Champion CJ7Y (not RCJ7Y) Is it fresh fuel, good oil in correct mix?

What plug is in it? When it no start is plug dry or wet? If it isn't sparkling plug is wet, if it starves for food it is dry.
