Problems with the new stihl ms 201 t

[morten]

From the 020T service manual:

 

10.3 Carburetor Adjustment

 

Erratic idling behavior, poor acceleration:

Idle setting too lean. Turn the low speed adjusting screw (L) counterclockwise until the engine runs and accelerates smoothly.

 

...

 

A correction at the low speed adjusting screw (L) usually necessitates a change in the setting of the idle speed stop screw (LA)

 

That, I guess, is as close to "gospel" as you get

I don't have one nor have tried one but remember something on a similar thread about some plastic guides that rub on the chain slowing it . They needed trimming away so it seems . This was in conjunction with carb tuning but needed . Could be a load of bollox but worth looking at may be .

Excellent saw once they are tuned for performance, not emissions.
