idle

ok, here we go; I’ve searched thru and read a bunch about the ignition coil, mtronic carb reset, etc. here’s what I did... 1) New wiring harness from coil to carb servo connection- old one had two yellow & red wires cut. New Wires look good. 2) gapped flywheel with a business card...made sure...

Just ported, deleted base gasket, and MM'd my Dolmar 460. Inlet and exhaust ports were widened side to side but not raised or lowered and intake ports were flowed but not enlarged. Power gains at WOT in wood are great its just been finicky on start up, revving and while idling. It 4-strokes...

So my old 020AV Super that I havent used in a few years wont idle.. Starts great. Cuts great at high RPM, no issues with that at all. But dies instantly if I let go of the throttle. Low and high adjustments about 1 1/2 out. Finicky adjustments. Idle screw doesnt seem to do anything really...

I'm hoping for some second opinions on a saw diagnosis that I've done. I got a Stihl 031AV that has recently had the carb rebuilt and was running successfully but now the saw races at idle even with the idle screw backed all the way out. I am suspecting an air leak but I have no tools to test...

I'm trying to make a cheat sheet or pocket card for the guys at work to use when tuning saws. I'm having trouble tracking down the suggested idle settings for a few models that we own. I know tuning to ear is a better practice, but I need a quantifiable range to use as a baseline for the ones...

i drove and drove and drove cause everyone loves a deal, and i really need another bigger, better, faster etc etc saw on a tight budget..my 10 yo 435 husky is getting tired :( i go into the store to see the saw with the wrong price on it (marked too high so was a problem) i tell the guy who says...

First time post for long time lurker. I've learned a lot from the site. I have a craigslist find Stihl 038 AV Magnum 2 that chain spins at idle. Although the clutch springs look fine, I'm going to replace them as based on other threads I'm convinced that's the problem. Clutch shoes are in...

I've got a 4 month old MS250. I've had like 6 tanks of fuel thru it. Lately its stalling when I let it go back to idle. I suspect that all that needs to happen is a small adjustment of the idle speed or mixture. Is this kind of thing covered in the warranty? It still runs great at higher...

Bought a local 272xp from a small engine shop (husky dealer) after lurking here a week . Owner said it has new piston and spark plug (probably more new parts), compression of 140. The fuel filter and line look new. First day it died when idling. Second day I ran it for an hour till out of gas...
