Well the 42 engine runs. I can't really test the carb because the engine isn't attached to anything and it is very unstable. Most of the chainsaw housing is gone so it is hard to keep in place. Plus im not sure about my kill switch. If I have it mounted and the kill doesn't work, I can pull the spark plug. Loose like this if I try that I'm most likely going to get a hand full of hot engine.
It did start on gas from the carb that I pumped in with the bulb. Whether that carb will suck gas on that engine is the question. But I did learn something useful from all these tests. When you read in an adv for a used engine that it will start but only runs a few seconds, most likely the carb is in need of a diaphragm.
