RYOBI 16” RY3716 CHAINSAW spark arrestor Location ?

[patric333]

Chainsaw is stalling often, I read in the manual to clean the spark arrestor but the manual does not show location / directions, Anyone know the location so I can clean it ? Thanks !

Before you mess around with that, have you tried using different gas, new, fresh gas, or even TruFuel?  When we talk with OPE manufacturers, they always tell us that 90% of the reasons these small engines stall or have issues are because of bad or old gas.  Fuel doesn't last as long as it used to, which was news to me when I first heard that.

Eric,

  Thanks for your response, I did drain the gas first and put new gas in with no luck. I should have mentioned that first, the chainsaw was running fine 3 days prior to it constantly stalling. Thanks again !

OK, I can see what I can find out about the directions or anything.  Just not familiar with that unit.
