I have a stihl 070 that's been giving me issues. I'll try to keep this short. I picked up a carburetor rebuild kit and installed it. Swapped out the inlet needle only to find out that it was a little too long and the inlet control lever would not act on it. But the old inlet needle back in, still couldn't get it started. After examining the piston and cylinder, I decided to put the 66 mm head and cylinder on. I was able to get it started, but I have a problem getting it to idle smoothly and can't get any top end out of it. I've been running 50 to 1 in it but I'm thinking of going to 30 to 1. Any one have any ideas? Your input is greatly appreciated.
