I think the carb. On this splitter is bad has anybody had a problem with these. And it's just over a year old and they don't cover fuel problems either!.

No problems with mine, but then I always run the tank and carb dry at the end of the day before I put it away, and always use E0 non-alcohol fuel.

I waited awhile and it started on the first pull. I cleaned the carb. With breke clean and wiped it down with a rag and took out the screw on the bowl on the carb and let the gas run out, it seemed to work . I use 91 on the splitter and chainsaw.
