The reason I posted this here is for small engine repair. It was the only location I could find to post this question. :smile:


I have a craftsman chain saw (I'll post the model number when I get home), she starts right up with no problems. When I give her gas she moves fast, but when I try to cut anything she bogs down and wont spin. No matter how much or how little pressure I put on it. Any ideas?
