I have an 8 year old McCullough (or however you spell it) 16" chainsaw. I bought it "reconditioned" for $70, so I don't want to put much money into it. It will not start; it was working fine, I stopped using it to get the chain sharpened, and now it will not start.
I have partly taken it apart and find that I am getting compression, but no draw at the fuel manifold. That is about the extent of my knowledge of 2 cycle engines.
Any suggestions for probing further would be appreciated.
