       Dolmar 119
   DIR By: KilliansRedLeo

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       A customer brought in a Dolmar 119 saying that it would start
       and run until it got hot then would not start. I cannot get it
       to start at all! Not familiar with this saw so need some answers
       to a few questions.
       Is there a way to tell what kind of ignition it has without
       pulling the flywheel?
       Is a special puller necessary to pull the flywheel?
       I am thinking won't start when hot could be a failed or failing
       coil or condenser what do you all thing.

       Thanks Jim, I gather from the above that they all had some sort
       of electronic ignition. The picture attached is the type the saw
       uses I believe. Given its arrangement it appears that it is
       mounted beneath the flywheel.

       I have not had a 119 apart.
       I have a 115, 6800, 5105, and two 7900's. That is the limit of
       my Dolmar experience.

       The .pdf above was first listed as being for the 119 but when
       you load it the 119 is not in the ipl?
       Here is what it is related to . . .
       DOLMAR 117, 118, 119, 122, 143, 144, 152, 153 [#144143000]
       Here is a picture of a after market coil. It appears to be the
       same as the small picture you presented but there is a trigger
       or points on the other side.

       Best I can figure is that the 119 was the predecessor to the
       straight 120 (not the 120S) They are the same bore and stroke.

       Thanks for the above. In taking the saw apart, I noticed that
       the recoil spring was damaged (in that the end that engages the
       starter pulley was broken off). I was able to get a AM
       replacement from U-Pep. However there are two phenolic disks
       that sandwich the recoil spring. One of them has a hole in it
       probably caused by the end breaking off the recoil spring. Have
       looked around trying to find a replacement but no luck. Anyone
       have any ideas on how to repair the damage or another part that
       can be used?

       The parts situation for Dolmar/Makita is deplorable unless it is
       a current production style. It is hard to get parts even for the
       111/115 and 6000/6800 and they were made up to somewhere around
       10 years ago.

       The one I just posted seems like the one Jim posted. His had the
       120S, the one I had dont show that one.
