Carb setup for old Jonsered 455

[Northern Chucker]

Can someone help me with adjusting the carb on this old Jonsered 455? A guy gave it to me and said it doesn't run. I took it somewhat apart, cleaned it up, put in some fresh gas, now it runs, just won't stay running. If someone could tell me a starting point as to where to set the carb it would be greatly appreciated.

I would start with 1 full turn out on both needles. Might have to put a carb kit in the old girl and while your at it I would change the fuel line and filter.

Ok. That's exactly what I did. I haven't put a carb kit in or changed the fuel line or filter though. Other than a little bog when I punch the throttle, it winds up pretty good. I ran some sea foam through it so tomorrow I'll fill it up with a fresh tank of fuel and see how she goes.
