HELP Max RPM for 2152 and 2159?

[MAG58]

I have done a Search but I'm not any wiser, cos some say 13000 and some say 13500,what's correct?
In the Manual's of the 2135T and 2171 the Max RPM is there, but not in the Manual's of 2152 and 2159? Please HELP anybody:help:

For the 2159 it's 13,800. Interestingly enough, on its orange sister, max is 13,500.

Thank you , I do set the Max RPM a little lower any way, but I need to know the Max RPM on the 2152 also

I send one e-mail to Jonsered, so I will see if I get any answer from them. And I was also asking why there is no IPL and Workshop Manual on their site.

Sorry, i was wrong, just checked workshop manual and it says 13k...

OK so it's 13000 RPM for the 2152. But for 2159 is it 13500 or 13800 :help: 13800 seem's a bit high to me

Max RPMs for the 359 in unmodified condition is 13,500. I would have to say that since mechanically the 2159 is identical to the 359 that the 13,500 max would apply to it also.opcorn:

Thank's , and yes it was what I was thinking, as 13800 seems a bit high to me

Thank you all for the Help Now when I know the Max RPM, it's easy to set the carb right

...right! :biggrinbounce2:

Thank's for the Help When I tune my saw's, I tune them a bit richer and lower then what is Max RPM from factory This make my feel a bit safer.

Okay...here's the absolute, unquestionable, verified, guaranteed correct answer on the 2159: It depends on which source you consult! :hmm3grin2orange:

All the 2006 sales literature specifies 13,800. This includes both the printed literature and the specs on the website.

However, a 2003 shop manual specifies 13,500.

Is it possible that there has been a change in the ignition module since 2003?

OK, thank you for clarifying that , but I hope I get some answer from Jonsered also, cos I did send them one e-mail. I would think that the 13800 is for 2156/357xp cos it's seem a bit high for the 2159/359

2159/359

I thought the 2159/359 are the same saw but maybe not. I downloaded a workshop manual for the 357xp/359 and the max rpms vary between E-tech and non E-tech. The non E-tech indicates max rpm=13,500. There is a separate section for adjusting the EPA carb and I assume that means E-tech. It specs max rpms @ 13,000. Look under Sticky Reference Links and you'll probably find the same manual. My 359 "d-eteched" cuts better a good bit under max rpms. I would think that more RPM=more cutting speed? I've heard that the 2159 has a bit more power than the 359 and some say it's because it has a compensating carb and the 359 doesn't.

I've always wondered why, at least here in the States, the 2159 is rated at 4.1 hp with a max RPM of 13,800, and the 359 is rated at 3.9 hp with a max of 13,500. I've always assumed it had something to do with ignition modules, but I'm not basing that assumption on an IPL, either. I know there has been some talk about that 0.2 difference in hp here on AS, but I'm not sure I ever heard anything definitive on why it is.

Definitely let us know what you hear from Jonsered, though!

Yes the 2159/359, 2156/357xp, 2152/353 and 2147/346xp are the same saw's, but as you say, the 2159 has a compensating carb, but the new 359 has that also, at least over here.

Yes I let you know what I hear from Jonsered, but who know's when they come back to me

the compensating carb is totally useless on huskies since the filter never gets that dirty opcorn: opcorn:

Yes maybe so, but I think the compensating carb have more to it then that.
