    Question:
    I have a Poulan Chain saw model number P3314 had it less than a year. The problem is it does not want to run if it is tilted up or down in any way and has a hard time under load. These issues were right out of the box. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Tracey,

    Thanks for your post,

    Tracey,

    It sounds like the needle in the carburetor is not adjusted correctly. Carburetor adjustments are covered under warranty for the first 30 days. This repair usually takes the dealer about 15-30 minutes. It could also be a faulty fuel cap, that is causing as vacuum and not allowing the fuel to flow properly.

    Thanks again for your question.
