362 chain running on

[spudulike]

Right........ if the saw is reasonably new, it probably needs a 1/8 - 1/4 turn anti clockwise on the L screw and the idle resetting to normal - that should do it.

 

One thing to try before this is to loosen the fuel cap with the saw at an angle and see if this makes this "run on" better. If it does then it is probably the fuel tank breather otherwise try the above.

 

Don't adjust the H screw:thumbdown:

 

Oh - one last thing - try a little lube on the rod that goes through the rubber grommet between the rear handle and the top cover - sometimes the throttle linkage gets a little tight on this grommet!

Thanks! I'll try all of those tomorrow.

They deffinetly do have a slight sticky throttle or something!! I've spent 3 days solid felling with a new one, rev's don't die down so quick....

I was just thinking that it could be the throttle is slightly sticking somewhere and maybe wants a bit of lube.
