    Hi guys I just wanted to Introduce to you my other Channel "Things to Know" - which i'm just getting started. It's a go-to channel for insightful worldly explanations, handy tips, and expert advice on everyday things and repairs of domestic items. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/channels/O8P9x5kUZ44Fb11vanLFsg.html

    one of the best teaching on how carburetor work, excellent !!! thanks so much !!!

  • @johnc4352
    @johnc4352 3 роки тому +61

    When adjusting the H screw at wide open throttle with no load on the saw, we should leave our mixture slightly on the rich side (lumpy). Because when the saw is engaged in cutting some wood it needs slightly more fuel and if we set the H screw perfectly at no load we will be slightly lean while under load and we risk engine damage from a too lean condition if there’s not that extra bit of fuel/oil mixture. Better a little lumpy than a little lean. Thank you.

    • @RwP223
      @RwP223 2 роки тому +3

      Fortunately my chain saw cuts air because it's actually a paramotor, that uses a chainsaw carburetor 😉

    • @GripFreak
      @GripFreak 2 роки тому +2

      You're correct! It should be slightly 4 stroking and cleans up in the cut.

    Hey thank you so much for this. Amazing explanation. I recently started using chainsaws for firewood since power is so expensive and I had trouble with one that looks almost identical with the one on your video. It bogged a lot and you video helped me adjust it quite a bit. It works fine for a while and then it starts bogging down again when cutting. I feel like I have already opened the H screw quite a bit. I will try opening it more again I guess, it might need more fuel after a while while cutting.
    Thanks again, now after your video I actually understand exactly what I'm doing and what happens inside the carb when adjusting instead of just guesswork.

      2 common causes not covered as per your description are puddling in crankcase getting cleared out and leaning out.. and # 2 hi ck valve rubber deteriorated and restricting fuel flo tru main jet leaving h screw fuel only. normally 1 1/2 - 2 turns is norm . some aftermarket carbs are made to cover many applications so main jet is small w adj screw larger so w no air leak 3-4 trns out may be norm. most other causes have been covered by excellet vid.

    • @FlattardiansSuck
      @FlattardiansSuck 2 роки тому +1

      Usually not required. Most of these carbs have a locked in jet, not supposed to be removed, so best just buy a new carb. You can use paint gun cleaning tools to clean it, or oxy acetylene nozzle files but these can "open" the jet hole, unless that's what you want. To remove it you will probably destroy it... Screw a screw into the jet hole, try wiggling it out, but may need to dremel around it slightly to loosen it from the carb.
