Help with my MS211 carburetter problems again

[Littletree]

Hi all I need some help with my MS211 I have had lots of problems with this little saw the problems never go away for long and then there back

 

This time the carburetter is staying shut on half throttle and on 1 and on off postion

.

It opens ok when I use throttle for drive . Is there anything I can do to sort this as need to fix it by the morning .

 

Many Thanks Littletree

I don't follow?

HI thanks for reply it s difficult to explain as am new to the inner workings of the saw other then the basic maintenance . When I put the lever down to full choke its closed as it should be but when I go up from that positing to half choke and then to on it stays in the shut position rather then opening .

 

Hope this explains better

Thanks Littletree

You are flicking the throttle after you have moved the on/off switch to 3/4/1 position?

 

You could just have some crap stopping the linkages.

Remove the air filter cover and filter to see if you can check the linkages out.

Hi thanks for reply Yes I am and it does not change .but It opens ok when I am using the throttle for drive .

 

I have got the air filter off and nothing seems to be blocking anything when looking at the levers .

 

Thanks Littletree

After a good blast outside its seems to be ok now .It was running high tickover and not settling down .

I Got to the bottom of the problem with my 211 today when it started playing up again . The housing where the muffler its sits had come loose . I tightened it all up again and have done this before several times in the past and each time it would come loose again very quickly but today it would not tighten up at all so now its looking rather sorry for its self sitting on the kitchen floor.

Yes it still is ,I will take it back, its been back many times before its still under a year old . I am quite surprised for a Stihl saw as its given me alsorts of problems from soon after getting it up to its end today .

 

I will be heading there on Sat .

Thanks Littletree
