Rest Carburetor back to Factory Settings like this….

  • Turning the fuel adjustment screws all the way in (clockwise) until they barely seat and then turning them out (anticlockwise) by a certain amount, usually one full turn, are common procedures for resetting a tiny two-stroke chainsaw carburetor to its factory settings. These factory settings serve as a starting point for further modifications. Here is a thorough, step-by-step instruction:
    Tools and Materials You'll Need:
    Small screwdriver or carburetor adjustment tool
    Safety glasses and gloves
    Owner's manual (if available)
    Procedure:
    Safety precautions: Before you start, make sure the spark plug is disconnected, the chainsaw is off, and you're wearing the proper protective gear, such as gloves and safety glasses.
    Finding the Adjuster Screws: Locate the carburetor's fuel adjustment screws. These are normally found on the side of the carburetor body and are referred to as the "L" (low-speed) and "H" (high-speed) screws. For safety, they could have plastic coverings or caps.
    Find Factory Settings: It's important to be aware of the factory settings that the chainsaw's maker suggests. These settings can differ based on the brand and model of the chainsaw, so consult your owner's handbook or the manufacturer's documentation to find out what they should be.
    Initial Adjustment - Clockwise Seating: Begin by lightly seating or bottoming out the "L" and "H" screws by clockwise (inward) rotating each of them. When doing this, use caution to prevent harm to the screws or carburetor. The "closed" position is the default setting.
    After lightly seating the screws, give each one a complete anticlockwise (outward) turn before backing off. For further fine-tuning, this one-turn anticlockwise adjustment serves as a starting point.
    Put on your safety gear and start the chainsaw after reconnecting the spark plug. So that it reaches its operational temperature, give it some time to warm up.
    Low-Speed Adjustment (L Screw): Slowly and incrementally crank the "L" screw anticlockwise (outward) while the chainsaw is operating. As you listen to the engine, keep an eye on the chain to see how it moves. The objective is to locate the point where the engine operates without hesitating or stalling. The ideal low-speed setting is indicated by this.
    After making the necessary low-speed adjustments, run the engine to full throttle and slowly spin the "H" screw anticlockwise (outward) in tiny increments. The goal is to achieve error-free, fast functioning without too much smoke.
    Final Check: After making these modifications, run the chainsaw for a few minutes at full speed and idle to make sure it maintains stability and doesn't stall. To fine-tune the settings, make any little tweaks that are required.
    Verify with Factory Settings: Compare your adjustments to the factory settings if you have access to them in your owner's handbook. If there is a sizable difference, modify further as necessary to comply with the manufacturer's instructions.
    Lock the Adjuster Screws: Once you're happy with the settings, you can mark the screw positions with a little bit of thread-locking compound or paint to prevent unintended change.
    Remember that these are only general instructions for returning a two-stroke chainsaw carburetor to its original default settings. Consult the owner's manual for your chainsaw for exact factory settings. To guarantee optimum performance and safety, consult a qualified chainsaw mechanic if you have questions about carburetor adjustments.
    I hope you have gained something from this video.

    I’m a long time 2 stroke service tech, and I’ve had much better luck at just under 1-1/4 turns out from the seat position.
    And very importantly, ALWAYS adjust the High Speed before the Low speed.
    It will give you the smoothest transition from low to high speeds.

    This is good for trying to “reset” a carb’s tune so you can get it to start and eventually tune it to run. Different carbs will have factory tunes set for the unit they’re attached to. That’s typically in the owners manual or a dealership workshop manual or something of the like. I work at an ECHO and Husqvarna dealership and we have carburetor adjustment manuals relative to the model and unit that tells us the factory settings for the carbs.

    • @israellopez9147
      @israellopez9147 Před 2 měsíci

      Obviously, if you don’t have the manual, this video shows you how you can work to get a random carb in tune.

    I have a question. On my Pioneer 1200A, the throttle linkage is fine but the part on the carburetor won't move more than a millimeter. I disconnected the linkage going up to the carburetor and tried to move it with my fingers without success. I have never actually fired up this chainsaw. It was a gift and I just wanted to clean it up and that's when I noticed the issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    If these aren't set correctly,will the carburator leak gas?

    • @TheRepairSpecialist
      @TheRepairSpecialist  Před 2 měsíci

      HI
      thank you for your question about two-stroke chainsaw carburetor adjustment and the possibility of gas leakage if the adjuster screws aren't set correctly.
      In two-stroke chainsaw carburetors, improper adjustment of the carburetor screws can indeed lead to various issues, including potential gas leakage. Here's how this can happen:
      Idle Speed Screw: If the idle speed screw is set too high, it can cause the engine to run excessively rich, leading to an overflow of fuel in the carburetor and potentially causing leakage.
      Idle Mixture Screw: Incorrect adjustment of the idle mixture screw can result in a mixture that is too rich (too much fuel) or too lean (too little fuel). A rich mixture can lead to fuel overflow and leakage from the carburetor.
      Float Valve or Needle Issues: If the float valve or needle is not functioning properly due to incorrect adjustment, wear, or damage, it can result in fuel not being properly regulated within the carburetor. This can lead to fuel overflow and leakage.
      To prevent gas leakage and ensure proper operation of your two-stroke chainsaw carburetor, it's important to:
      Refer to the manufacturer's specifications for the correct adjustment of idle speed and mixture screws.
      Use the appropriate tools, such as a tachometer and a screwdriver, to make precise adjustments to the carburetor screws.
      Regularly inspect the carburetor for signs of leakage, fuel overflow, or other issues and address any problems promptly.
      If you suspect gas leakage from the carburetor due to incorrect adjustment, I recommend consulting a qualified technician or referring to the specific carburetor adjustment guidelines for your chainsaw model.
      Thank you for your question and for engaging with our community. If you have further inquiries or need assistance, feel free to reach out!
      Best regards,
      Craig

      @TheRepairSpecialist  Před 2 měsíci

      Unfortunately this probably will not work for your 029 Stihl because as far as i can remember, these chainsaws don't actually have H and L screws. Don't quote me on this but I believe that, Instead, they have a compensator built into their design that alters Air/Fuel ratios automatically as they operate.
      If you are having running problems due to the carb, then it might be a good idea to have the serviced and possibly diaphragms replaced. That might sort it.
