Hey everyone, I have an old Sachs Dolmar 133 that I just put a new carb kit into and I have run into a small problem. The saw is having trouble starting. It will force gas into the carb on choke but as soon as I take off of choke it seems to gurgle and lower rpms then dies. When I pull on it again, same thing. Several pulls later it will then start to pick up a bit of steam and after mashing the throttle a bit it will then get the proper amount of fuel and idle just fine. It revs great throttle response is perfect when it gets going but it just isnt responding well when first starting up. Does this sound like the low jet is a bit too rich? Its got new fuel lines, gaskets, and a new fuel filter. Air filter is doing fine and is cleaned up with compressed air and a little bit of detergent. Thoughts? Thanks
