    Ms261 won't rev just dies!

    Turns out I was reading the inside of the gun son gauge which reads in mpa. Turns out that it actually has 160-170 psi. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    We (Britain) are very fortunate with fuel as its good quality. I don't get a lot of fuel related problems (except straight fueling or sediment from combi cans) I find the main things I get are broken things, chain breaks and wear and tear. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    The limiter is at 3/4 out. I removed that and will tach it at the weekend. They have a limited coil don't they? Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    Think you were spot on there. Whatever it is seems to have gone now, I'll test it further at the weeekend. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    Got it running. Pressure and vac test was good, cleaned the carb and replaced the screen. Put back together, fired it up and let it idle, still wouldn't rev. So I backed the h screw out very rich and gave it some and it cleared it out, runs beautifully. Checked comp and it was at 125psi this...

    Well blow me if I haven't gone and lost it. Either it wasn't in there or I lost it. That fine screen isn't in there. Could that cause problems like I'm getting? Just pressure and vac tested and no problems at all. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    When I replaced the bits in the carb it came with the two gaskets and diaphragms. I only did the carb kit after it developed the running issue. Didn't come with any other bits. When I cleaned it I took the screws out and used carb cleaner, took the metering needle out and cleaned that, cleaned...

    It does this from cold. Didn't have any problems when it was running in the wood then sounded like it was running out of fuel and then it's never been right since. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    I can't get it to rev high, not up to max rpm. Pulsing the trigger helps but it just dies and splutters and is very intermittent. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    Nope it's a 2013 with a standard carb. Started with the l screw 1 turn out and the h screw limiter removed and set a touch rich. I have a got a tach now so I can go by the numbers. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    Low comp but new rings, not even a tank on them yet. Will they bed in and will compression rise? Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

    I'm sure it's part of the manifold, unless I'm being a proper bone head and it's gone walkies! Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk
