Husqvarna 141 woes

[decableguy2000]

A friend brought me a 141 that wont idle and will fire and run like a scalded dog and quit. I suspect air leak carb settings. What should be the settings from start. Ill have not been able to track a service manual for it have one for 41 and says refer to owners for settings. 141 owners only has throttle settings.

Carb settings 2 H , 1 1/2 L. I have seen a lot of those saws with worn crank bearings & air leak at crank seals. Check for up and down play at clutch and flywheel, it should not have any.

Look at the 4 bolts on the bottom of the saw and see if they are loose or missing, then if so, then your intake/impulse area is likely damaged..

I believe it’s a turn and a 1/2 out for both then adjust once running.

Also and very important. Under the carb at the cylinder there is a small rubber transfer pipe. If it’s torn crushed squished whatever. That will be how the responds. I bought a pack of em for like 7.00 bucks.
