Odd Ball Husky 359

[doc874]

My husky 359 is acting up again. Installed a new piston rings etc..., light hone on the cylinder and rebuilt the carb. My problem is that, "yes" it will start but, idle rough and turning the H & L carb screw's has absolutly "NO", effect what-so-ever on the saws idle or on its running. At WOT she runs fine but when i let off on the throttle, she runs rough and on occasion quits. I also cannot adjust the idle very well with the idle screw. This one has me puzzled and i'm thinking its possibly the seals. Oh, it doesn't't matter if the saw is hot-warm or cold when running to act up so, i don't suspect the coil. The timining key did break off and i dremel'ed the groove and installed a timing -key from an 026, so maybe this is a problem??? I ordered a newer flywheel so its on the way. Any husky experts or someone who has experienced something like this in a Husky?? :help:

Check the impulse line. This has a bad habit of cracking and it's hard to see on the 359 intake because it's underneath.

Finally got to the husky again. Impulse line is fine but i changed it anyway to be sure. Same problem. Will start easy, run abit rough but at WOT screams fine. I took her apart cylinder and all again but no luck, all seems ok. I know she spit out some mix (black) through the muffler ( i mixed it abit heavy on the oil ). I may as well order some crank seals as i'm stumped on this one. Also awaiting another flywheel. If anyone has any other ideas i'd appreciate it at this point.
