SOURCE: mccullough chain saw pm610 chain slips -- maybe clutch issue

I just had this problem. It is possible that your chain drive teeth have jumped off the drive sprocket. There is a guide for the chain to follow and is decievingly difficult to verify that the teeth are in the drive sprocket. Turn the saw upside down, and look at the clutch. Check the chain to see if the chain is actually on the sprocket and not beside it. It looks right, but it's not.

Won't start when motor is warm. Saw for half hour and shut it off and it refuses to start again

this sure sounds as if it's an overheating problem , this causes the ign ckt to over heat and shut off the spark at the plug , id get a real good look at the cooling fins and make double sure theres no sawdust or other stuff in there blocking up the works , if you continue to run saw to overheat eventually it will damage the ign ckt to the point it wont come back on and saw wont run ,Period.

I use strong compressed air to blow out stuff stuck down in the ribs of saws(wear glasses )

Maytag Dryer Model med5630TQ0, run it for 30 minutes works great run a second time for 30 minutes it automatically shuts-off and than I have to wait until it cools off to use heat option

Try cleaning out the vent in the wall and also check the vent hose to ensure its not kinked. If good air flow coming out of vent on back of dryer while running you could have a bad motor. Have to be disassembled to check it professionally.

My chain saw starts just fine. It will work for about 30 minutes cutting well. After about 30 minutes the engine begins to miss and stall under load. Shortly thereafter the saw will not restart until it...

This sounds very much like a bad ignition unit, if they are going to break down they will do it when they are hot, the only answer here is to replace the unit.

My saw runs great for about 5 minutes then it seems to over heat and it quits running.

There are several things that can cause this problem First if you run it until it quits will it start working again after it cools down. If this is the case the it is shutting off thermal switch on motor. This could be from saw needing cleaned or lubed, make sure chain is not to tight, don't force saw to hard,let it cut at its own pace. Make sure chain is sharp. Anything that causes excessive friction will increase motor temperature. It is possible that thermal switch is about worn out. Hope this helps. Thanks

Hitachi CS33EB16 16" Rear Handle Chain Saw Starts a little rough - brand new. Run for 15 minutes and turn it off, if started within 3 or 4 minutes it starts right up. If I wait 7, 8 minutes or more it...

might pay to check the fuel tank breather , make sure its venting

check the ignition coil it may be going open circuit loosing its spark when it getts warm or hot , you have to wait till it cools to re-start

you will need a spark tester fitted in between ht lead and plug to check this visually when its running

check for a kill wire grounding 1st

cheers

Engine acts like it is vapor locking.. Can Mow 30

heat related problem, probably needs the valves adjusted. When the engine gets hot the valve clearances change

Hot chain saw wont start

When it won't start, remove the spark plug, lay the base on engine metal with the wire on, and pull through. The spark should be blue and snappy. If nothing, try a fresh plug. If still nothing, the ignition module may be failing with heat. Try blowing out sawdust from the engine and case with compressed air to improve cooling. Does the engine 4-stroke when not cutting, but immediately 2-strokes when cutting? Check the air cleaner and muffler for plugging. Make sure the carburetor fasteners are tight. Hope some of this helps!

The fan wont turn off on my 1997 catera

wait 10 minutes after you shut the car off - then remove the negative side of the battery - wait 30 minutes then reinstall and run the car 30 minutes.
If your cooling fluid is full and other cooling systems are in place and working - you should be fine.

The fan on your cooling system is made to continue to run once the engine is shut down if it is running a little [ or a lot] hot. So don't panic if it runs 5 minutes after you shut the car off.
