husky 281xp speeds

[SawTroll]

The original problem was that I had set the top speed to 9000 as it said in the manual I got with it (ex army saw) and when I was milling sycamore with it the other day I thought it was running too slow. I have now adjusted it up using a tach so all is good now.

 

9,000 rpm is the max power rpm, not the max recommended rpm.

Is that a tillotson carb by any chance?

Sounds exactly the same as what you do on the stihl 051/075/076 and throws in extra fuel to limit it?

I just use a small punch and bit of ally coke can

 

It is a Tilly, at least in most of them.
