    Poulan Chain Saw
    I have a Poulan 2150 2.1 C I Woodsman gas powered chain saw. Was running pretty good one day and about a week later I can't get it started. Plug is good, gas filter I replaced, also air filter. I prime it as instructed. 6 pumps on the bubble, pull choke out and set trigger switch. Pull 5 times, release choke and pull until it starts. Runs about 10 seconds and stops. As I repeat process, same thing happens. If I don't repeat process I can't even get the saw to run for 10 seconds.
    Any help on this? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Sounds like carb, suspect the inlet screen first, and the metering diaphragm second.
    Peace,
