Husqvarna low speed screw all the way in. Should saw die at idle?

Does it have a limiter cap on it? If not you probably have an air leak if it ticks over screwed all the way in.
Without limiters it should kill the saw at idle in both extremes.

In this saw, it seems to make no difference. I'll have to see if there are limiters or something else I'm not seeing.
With an air leak, I should still be able to screw the low screw in and starve it, shouldnt I?
In older saws a couple of ticks on the clock made the sweet spot. Some newer saws the amount of adjustment is minute. The fuel value is mostly fixed.
Yes check for limiters.
You can see in pic , the low jet with limiter removed and behind is the high jet with limiter in place.

Usually low speed turned all the way and still running is usually flooding issue.
How fast is engine running when turned in, screaming? Or?
What happens if both high and low turned all way in?
Could be a dependent carb.
What model of saw?

Have you removed the idle screw to see if it is damaged (tip broken off, etc)?
What is the saw and carburetor? Some (all?) EPA compliant carbs only give you the control with the screws for a portion (10% ?) of the fuel being delivered.
I believe the OP has carb issues.
A good running saw will respond to H-L adjustments.
Maybe the saw sat in hibernation for a while.
