You get fizz in the carb, then you get surging and other freaky things.īut as time progressed, more cars went to fuel injection.
#Signs of vapor lock full#
Car runs out of gas, with a full tank of gas. You fizz in the pump and it don’t pump no more. That was because the pump and the carb was on/ and or/ attached to the engine in question. A little bubbling was fine, but not a total fizz out. Back years ago, they had to formulate gas so that the vapor pressure was low enough that it wouldn’t violently boil away at normal engine temps. Around the2000, I was left on the side of the road with vapor lock more times than I cared to count until I figured out what was going on and took corrective measures. I have drove carbureted vehicles since for the entire time.
The biggest thing that it affected was my vehicles. I have noticed a drastic change in the gas formulation around 2002 to 2002 It has only gotten worse since then. Living in Indiana, and using chainsaws for over 16 years (over half my life) to keep my butt warm. But the primary cause is the GAS that they are using. Some saw models are a little bit more sensitive to it than others. In some parts of the country it is worse than in others. It is just a result of the fact that saws use a non pressurized fuel system, (ie) carburetor In all likelihood, the saw is most likely perfectly fine. And even in this website, I have seen people list that same problem, and someone tells them to take it back and get a different one. And how they take them back for a refund. I have seen numerous shopping review sites that list people complaining about different saws not wanting to start when hot. The problem of the saw starting and running fine when cold, and after it heats up, you can shut it off for a few minutes and then it won’t start. Except on rare occasion, like the earlier post. Because I have almost never heard it mentioned when someone complains about the same basic problem. I have seen people at this forum posting with the same problems from time to time so I am posting this here so that people are aware of the most likely cause of that problem. AKA vapor lock causing customer returns of perfectly good saws.
