The saw should be set to 13-13.5000 RPM. It may take more but setting tuned saws to near maximum of the manufacturers stated limits is what I always did.

Not sure how you are tuning it but taching a saw in this way always ensures the same result.

ive been tuning it in the wood, so it 4 strokes when you lift it off.
are you saying tune it so its just under the limiter?

I think the coils are limited to 13,200 or thereabouts. My usual method was to tune low and build up revs to the point the tach just went loopy so the carb would be limiting at the same point the coil rev limiter cuts in.

Your method may OK if you have the time to do cuts and plug chops to see what you have but I never had the luxury of time so the above gave me what I wanted...a reliable machine doing what it should.

ah ok that makes sense and sounds alot easier, i shall try that and see where i end up.
tuning low end is find the highest idle on the l jet then richen an 1/8 of a turn right?
